I'm having problems installing an ACE 4.1 aceserver on a SPARC 5
running Solaris 2.5. I have done the following according to the
instructions.
1) Compiled Aceserver/client using gcc 2.7.2
(I did get a complaint about a redefinition of RPC_ANYSOCK
(between a gcc include file and rpcace.h
2) Entered in /etc/rpc :
acedbd 20000116 rpc.acedbd
3) Entered (as one line fields separated by tabs) in /etc/inet/inetd.conf :
20000116/1 stream rpc/tcp wait mark /opt/local/bin/rpc.acedbd
rpc.acedbd /opt/www/acedb/xg 20000116 600:600:100
4) done kill -HUP [inetd_pid].
5) I also have the line in my /etc.services:
acedbd 20000116/tcp rpc.acedbd
also the line nsswitch.conf :
services: files
I tried three other things : - rebooting the machine (at least once)
- starting the aceserver as a foreground
process (I get the message
!! internal system error: No valid port
specified)
- edited the wspec/server.wrm file
This is most frustrating I have had this working today and now it
refuses to work for love nor money, can anyone help??
Many thanks in advance
Mark
