Are there any messages in /var/log/messages? If you've installed packages from a distro, can you install the debugging rpms, export PKCS11_API_LOG_DEBUG=1, then try again and see if anything is logged.
If you've installed from source, you'd need to configure --enable-debug, then make, make install and export the env var above. 2010/7/20 Alexander Loukissas (aloukiss) <alouk...@cisco.com>: > Both of these are true already, but still the error appears. > > Alex > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kent Yoder [mailto:shpedoi...@gmail.com] > Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2010 8:24 AM > To: Alexander Loukissas (aloukiss) > Cc: Klaus Heinrich Kiwi; opencryptoki-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [opencryptoki-users] error initializing token > > Hi Alex, > > Make sure pkcsslotd is running and that the user executing this > command is a member of the pkcs11 group. > > Kent > > On Tue, Jul 20, 2010 at 9:48 AM, Alexander Loukissas (aloukiss) > <alouk...@cisco.com> wrote: >> Thanks Klaus, >> >> I've actually tried doing what you've suggested but I still can't make it to >> work.
