Hi, I've just joined this list hoping to get some help with making openAFS work with a vserver-kernel. Everything below concerns the vserver host, not the guests.
>From the maillist archive, I was able to compile a working openafs module: https://www.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2005-October/019749.html I am following the Gentoo howto for setting up openAFS: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openafs.xml#doc_chap5 In the first step in starting the AFS server, I am to run 'bosserver -noauth &'. This results in the creation of two symlinks: /etc/openafs/CellServDB -> /etc/openafs/server/CellServDB /etc/openafs/ThisCell -> /etc/openafs/server/ThisCell and one file: /etc/openafs/server/ThisCell At this point bosserver dies. I am therefore unable to progress. (Note: The path in the howto says /usr/vice/etc/, but this has been changed to /etc/openafs). I have tried to recompile openafs with and without the fix in the maillist archive above, but I keep getting the same result: Two symlinks, one file and one dead bosserver. Apparently bosserver is very unhappy on my server: # bosserver -help Segmentation fault A bt on the coredump gives: #0 0x00000000004067cf in bozo_rxstat_userok () #1 0x00002aaaaacf2644 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6 #2 0x00000000004057ea in ?? () #3 0x00007fffffe225a8 in ?? () #4 0x000000000000001c in ?? () #5 0x0000000000000002 in ?? () #6 0x00007fffffe227e1 in ?? () #7 0x00007fffffe227eb in ?? () #8 0x0000000000000000 in ?? () My setup: Dual Opteron 250 Gentoo Linux 2.6.15-vs2.0.1-gentoo-r5 SMP kernel On similar hardware, but running a non-vserver kernel, bosserver works fine. Does anyone have any clue what is going on, how it can be fixed, or how I can help get it fixed? I am no capable programmer, but I am more than happy to fiddle about with stuff on my server to get things working :) Thanks, Einar _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
