Hey guys, I’m having a problem.

 

I’m installing a new vserver and it’s on a computer that has special hardware and often times special jobs.  I’m using RedHat 8 as my host and I’ve used Alexey Lyashkov’s script for building a redhat kernel rpm.

 

At first, things were really not working… then I realized I hadn’t rebooted with the new kernel.  ;-)  So, the things worked better after that.  I was able to build a new vserver ok, but now I can’t start it.  When I try, I get this error:

    Server testserver is not running

    Can't set the ipv4 root (Bad address)

 

I checked dmesg and found this message in the boot log:

    s_context_status_write: can't open file .vservers!

 

Here’s what I’ve installed:

    vserver-admin-0.22-1

    kernel-2.4.18-27.7.vserver

    vserver-0.22-1

    linuxconf-1.31-1.i386.rpm

    linuxconf-gui-1.31-1.i386.rpm

    linuxconf-lib-1.31-1.i386.rpm

    linuxconf-util-1.31-1.i386.rpm

    linuxconf-X-1.31-1.i386.rpm

    gnome-linuxconf-0.65-1.i386.rpm

 

My config for the “testserver” vserver looks like:

# egrep -v "^\W*#" testserver.conf

if [ "" = "" ]; then

        PROFILE="">

fi

case $PROFILE in

prod)

        IPROOT="eth0:192.168.0.10/255.255.255.0"

        IPROOTDEV="eth0"

        S_HOSTNAME=www.somewhere

        ;;

backup)

        IPROOT=""

        IPROOTDEV=eth0

        S_HOSTNAME=

        ;;

esac

>

S_DOMAINNAME=

S_NICE=

S_FLAGS="lock nproc"

ULIMIT="-H -u 1000"

S_CAPS=""

 

I’ve recompiled the src rpm for the vserver tools so that it should match what’s on my system.  When I do

    chbind --ip 192.168.0.10 sleep 1

I get:

    Can't set the ipv4 root (Bad address)

 

I’m not sure what this means… Any help is greatly appreciated.  By the way, I have several other vserver’s running fine… This is the only one I’ve done using the “rebuilding a redhat kernel” process.  (which I’m doing to ease the process of installing other software)
