QUAGGA, start zebra daemon problem.

ERBRMN · 10-18-2006, 01:48 AM

Hi all

I installed Quagga-0.99.5 new version on SUSE 10 linux from tar package.
Installation (./configure, make, make install, add port information to "etc/service") was OK.

When I start zebra daemon mode, there was not any message and log message.
(zebra -d -f /usr/local/etc/zebra.conf)
(zebra -d -A 127.0.0.1 -f /usr/local/etc/zebra.conf)
(zebra -d -A 127.0.0.1 -P 2601 -f /usr/local/etc/zebra.conf)

But, I think the Zebra daemon could not start.
I can not connect to zebra daemon via VTY (telnet localhost 2601). Also after start zebra command, there was not any zebra on memory (I checked "ps -ae")

I am planning: after start zebra, I want to configure OSPFD.
How can I start zebra daemon ?

Hi, again

How can I monitor or check Zebra daemon start/stop process error?
I checked log message "/var/log/message", but there was not any message.

I found the messages, in AIX at least, are posted to:

/var/adm/wtmp

In order to read wtmp, you will need to convert it to ascii:

/usr/sbin/acct/fwtmp < /var/adm/wtmp > /tmp/fwtmp.txt

Hope this helps =).
