I'm having a problem I can't diagnose. I just set up a new Coda server, an SCM, doing rdsinit by hand for a larger-than-usual RVM partition. I made sure all the scripts were run, exiting from vice-setup tp run rdsinit and create /vice/srv.conf by hand, then running vice-setup-srvdir. I can start rpc2portmap, updatesrv, updateclnt, and codasrv itself using the init scripts and startserver. However, codasrv seems to die as soon as it is inovked (i.e. it isn't visible in the output of ps). It looks as if the server is just refusing to work. All attempts to connect to the server fail. On my Linux client, I get this message when starting venus: Date: Tue 02/08/2000 20:45:35 Probably another Venus is running! open(/dev/cfs0) failed (19), exiting (Yes, /dev/cfs0 exists and is readable and writable by root.) On a Windows client, I get an "unable to open TCP socket" error box. If I issue a createvol_rep command on the SCM, I get something like this: root_at_boc:~# createvol_rep coda_root E0000100 /vicepa Servers are (boc ) HexGroupId is 7F000003 creating volume coda_root.0 on boc V_BindToServer: binding to host boc.private.vovida.com RPC2_NewBinding to server boc.private.vovida.com failed with RPC2_NOBINDING (F) Failure to make volume on boc!. Abort.. Needless to say, since I can't start venus, I can't log on as the Coda administrator remotely and run createvol_rep from another box, as I should. :P I'm pretty much at the end of my rope. Do you have any idea why this is happening? Any hints would be helpful. Just in case I did something horribly wrong, I've attached the output from rdsinit, but it looks to me as if everything succeeded.
