This is probably a FAQ, but the FAQ-o-Matic (at http://amanda.sourceforge.net/fom-serve/cache/295.html nor http://amanda.sourceforge.net/fom-serve/cache/13.html) doesn't cover it... so here goes.
I'm trying to do amdump or amcheck but anytime I do, I get this in my log: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ERROR planner Request to localhost timed out. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Localhost has its inetd.conf and services modified correctly by the client setup script, as evidenced by telnetting to localhost:10080 & pressing "ENTER", output follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log/amanda/Daily# telnet localhost 10080 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. Amanda 2.4 NAK HANDLE SEQ 0 ERROR expected "Amanda", got "" Connection closed by foreign host. ------------------------------------------------------------------- So I'm confused. What would cause amdump to get a timeout trying to do a planner request? Does it mean somehow a planner executable isn't available to the daemon process? Any pointers appreciated. -- pv If this helped you, http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=philovivero
