hi, there,
I have both client & server of 4.2-RC-20060712 on Redhat Linux 9. Other RHL9
clients work fine. One, mysteriously, failed to start.
hobbitclient.logshows it tries to bond with
127.0.0.1:1984, as fails miserably. As in other clients, I define the bb
server's IP address in /etc/default/hobbit-client. -x execution of the init
script seems it did source the /etc/default/hobbit-client and got the
correct bb server IP address. Any idea ? This RH9 boxen doesn't have
bind-util package installed, that's the only difference I can think of.
The RPM config is a bit weird - in fact, I had to do a client install on
a Fedora box to see what it looks like. (It's been too long since I
put it together ...)
Anyway, the data from /etc/default/hobbit-client is copied into the
/var/run/hobbitclient-runtime.cfg file. Fromt here, they are included
into the ~hobbit/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg file and that is where
they get picked up by the various Hobbit client-side tools.
So could you check that
* the /var/run/hobbitclient-runtime.cfg file exists, is current (i.e.
is is updated when you restart the client), and it has the right
settings in it; if not, try deleting it and restarting the client.
* the ~hobbit/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg has a line with
include /var/run/hobbitclient-runtime.cfg
near the top, and there are NO settings for BBDISP or BBDISPLAYS
in the hobbitclient.cfg file
