The problem is the fact that the initial storage space was not
created so your server isn't running. You should be able to see this
in the log.
Ubuntu 8.10 has bdb 4.7 by default but it has packages for the 4.6
version as well. (Something like apt-get install libdb-4.6-dev)
Rebuild you server with bdb 4.6 and those errors while creating the
storage space should go away. Alternatively you could get the latest
version of PVFS out of CVS which supports bdb 4.7. Just as an FYI, the
kernel module will not build with 2.7.1 and Ubuntu 8.10 either.

Hi,
I am a PVFS novice. I compile and install PVFS as the pvfs-quick-
start-guide introduced. I installed MPICH2 with pvfs2 support in /
usr/local and it can run either in root or ordinary account, I
install PVFS2 in /root/pvfs-install. I configure meta-server , data-
server and client all in my laptop. Everything works right until I
configure the client. The command and responses are like below:
