I guess that means I have to install tcl on my servers then, but I suppose I can live with that :-) Thanks -- Peter Nixon http://www.peternixon.net/ PGP Key: http://www.peternixon.net/public.asc

As a side issue are you planning on making a postgresql-plperl (PL/Perl procedural language for PostgreSQL module) package for 7.3? there is one for 7.2.2 in SuSE 8.1 but you have not (yet) make one available for 7.3.

You need to update the DNS-Zonefile for domainname.com. Just add an MX-record according to your setup and voila, email(a)domainname.com will work. regards, Stefan

Packaging bug in Postgres 7.3
by Peter Nixon 09 Dec '02

09 Dec '02

Hi Guys Thought this particular bug might bite some of you. If you are running a minimal SuSE 8.1 server (possibly other SuSE versions also) and upgrade to Postgres 7.3 from the people directory there is a bug in the packaging that doesn't specify glibc-i18ndata and glibc-locale as dependancies. (Older versions of postgres will work but 7.3 will not) In /var/log/postgresql you will see: FATAL: invalid value for option 'LC_MESSAGES': 'en_GB' And if you try to start it manually you will see: db3:/var/lib/pgsql # su -l postgres postgres@db3:~> postgres Failed to initialize lc_messages to '' LOG: database system was shut down at 2002-12-09 16:44:38 EET LOG: checkpoint record is at 0/8018BC LOG: redo record is at 0/8018BC; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE LOG: next transaction id: 480; next oid: 16976 LOG: database system is ready FATAL: Database "postgres" does not exist in the system catalog. LOG: shutting down LOG: database system is shut down These weird error messages had me chasing this for 3 hours today before I realised what the problem was.

Sound server fatal error : /tmp/mcop-prabusubroto is not owned by user.
by Prabu Subroto 09 Dec '02

09 Dec '02

Dear my Pals, everytime I login to NIS server from my workstation I find this error message : " Sound server fatal error : /tmp/mcop-prabusubroto is not owned by user. ". Where does it come from ? Anybody would be so kind to tell me ? I installed 2 OS on one station, they are : windows 98 and SuSE Linux 8.1 . And why is now my Desktop in KDE always connected to the Desktop of my MS Windows ? What I created as an application launcher (*.lnk) on the windows desktop will also be appeared on the desktop of my KDE. And viceversa, what I created on the desktop of my KDE will also be appeared on the desktop of my Windows (on the same station). The problem started since I chose "use current dekstop" when I logged in for the first time into NIS server from my workstation after I upgraded my SuSE Linux from 8.0 to 8.1. How can I separate the desktop of my windows and the desktop of my linux. Thank you very much in advance. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

SuSE 8.0 professional and IBM Netfinity 7000
by "Germán S. Arduino" 09 Dec '02

09 Dec '02

Hello: I've a IBM Netfinity 7000 (8651-th0) with 2 Pentium Pro 200 mhz processors, 512 MB RAM, 3 hd of 9 GB each one with a IBM ServeRAID (4.90.18) in RAID 5 configuration. I've made severals attempts to install SuSE. The system install ok, and I can to boot, to log, access to disks, all without problem, but ONLY when I boot the system from the CD 1 (Install - Boot installed system). If I try to boot from the hard disks, then the system check all the scsi adapters and ends with a "Bad EIP VAlue". I've tested also the ServerRAID with IBM tools downloaded from the IBM web, and all seems to be normal. I can't understand why boot normally from the CD and not from the hard disks. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in Advance and Best Regards. --- Germán S. Arduino http://gsa.swiki.net

How to save files containing int'l characters in kwrite ?
by Radule Soskic 09 Dec '02

09 Dec '02

Hi, I am pretty sure that this was recently discussed on this list (even solved), but I couldn't dig it out of the archive. I really tried, but (sorry) have to ask again. My problem is as following: - I can change keyboard layout and type local latinic characters in kwrite editor. I use TT fonts (e.g. courier new) and everything looks fine, but after I save the file and read it back into editor, all international (local) chars appear as "?". Hope this can be solved, appreciate all suggestions, including switching to another editor, whatever. TIA -- Radule Soskic <rms(a)telekom.yu>
