Lars - I can now build and install the RPMs - including your new simulator RPM.
However, I noticed this problem when starting up openhpid: May 11 14:55:29 saf1-bl460-1-0 openhpid: ERROR: (new_sim_file.cpp, 135, Configuration file 'etc/openhpi/simulation.data' could not be opened) I think you are assuming that the person who is starting openhpid is always cd'ed to the / directory before issuing the start command. In my case, I was cd'ed to /etc/openhpi when I attempted to start the daemon - and got the above error. Note that the path specified in the error message above shows no leading /. Also, I should point out that the simulation.data file could easily end up in /usr/local/etc/openhpi if the user set their prefix to /usr/local when they performed the configure step of the build of openhpi. Your plugin needs to respect the user's desire for where the simulation.data is installed. This problem is solved for the location of openhpi.conf - so it should be solvable for your case too. If I start openhpid while I am cd'ed to the / directory, I can get the simulator to run - and I will continue testing it - using this work-around. However, the above issues need to be addressed. --michael Regards, Michael Bishop Enterprise Servers and Storage (ISB Linux/Telco) Hewlett-Packard Company 3404 E. Harmony Rd.
