Uuuuggghhh, this just seems to be the same old stuff, sun boxes are the only
boxes we have problems with, every time someone updates their operating system
on a sun the RPC server breaks....sigh... The problems are very hard to debug
because of course we don't have the source code for the sun libraries so
This is a sorry tale, I have been putting my efforts into making the socket
server work and I would suggest that you try using that.
You can pick up the latest monthly development build from:
ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/acedb/Sanger-release.2000_05_09.tar.gz
and you can see documentation on how to set the server up at:
http://www.acedb.org/Development/wdoc/SOCKET_aceserver.html
Send me email if you have problems or need help. I really recommend just
dropping the RPC server and going for the sockets version.
cheers Ed
