Will archive them all! rvmutl shone a light on the cause of my problems: the partition on which the data and log files reside was for some unexplained reason mounted ro. I have allways found the output of mount command confusing, because it shows the initial mount options, not the current (that's why I was convinced it was mounted rw, untill I tried 'touch test' in the data/log directory, which failed!). remounted the disk and codaserver now happily starts and runs along nicely. My sincere apologies for the mailinglist contamination with my rambling! As a payback attempt, this is my server login script that makes use of Xdialog and checks the existance of gcodacon before launching another. Makes desktop integration nearly seemless... #!/bin/sh USER=[user] SERVER=[server] Xdialog --stdout --password --inputbox "Coda password for $USER@$SERVER" 0 0 \ | clog $USER@$SERVER # show tokens received Xdialog --msgbox "`ctokens @$SERVER`" 0 0 # find gcodacon's PID PID=`ps -o pid,cmd -C python | grep gcodacon | awk '{print $1}'` # if no PID found, start gcodacon if [ "$PID" == "" ]; then gcodacon & fi Regards, MartinReceived on 2007-09-14 10:30:22
