Apollon Plugin Help Please


Hello I have sucessfully installed the application Apollon, as you probably know you can add plugin support. I have successfully downloaded and installed the Gnutella plugin this is located at

/usr/local/lib/giFT/libGnutella.la

OpenFT is the default network when apollon opens, this seems to work well but doesn't connect. I go to add the Gnutella plugin I get the message in the info area

Connection error
The giFT daemon, which is responsible for connecting to the various networks, appears to be down and I don't seem to able to start it.
Probably your giFT installation is corrupted. Try starting giFT manually by typing "giftd" on the command line. If this gives errors, there's likely some internal error in giFT or in your giFT configuration. Refer to the giFT homepage at http://giftproject.org for help.

as soon as I removed the Gnutella plugin I it goes back to the OpenFT connecting and still no connection. I have the plugin in the config script as follows

# Colon separated list of protocol plugins to load by default. If dynamic
# library support is enabled, the plugin specified will be stat'd to check if
# it is a loadable path. If that fails, the fallback method is to attempt to
# construct the fully qualified path based on the configured environment.
# NOTES:
# Without dynamic library support, this plugin must have been compiled into
# your giFT binary. With, this plugin must exist in the installed
# plugin directory. giFT -V will output this path to you, if you are not
# sure.
# Protocol names are case sensitive, so use OpenFT, not Openft.
# For example, to use the OpenFT and Gnutella protocols use:
# OpenFT:Gnutella
# Default: none
plugins = OpenFT:/usr/local/lib/giFT/libGnutella.la

I still have no luck, if you have any thing that would help me that would be great. Cheers

though the apollon is as eratic as a chicken on acid on my system; i recommend plugging in the the fastrack plugin. that is the only constant plug that works for me.

if u config. the apollon in GUI u can add it via the "settings" tab and the gift update automatically

i cp-ed the plugsd into /usr/local/lib/gift and that seems to work meekly. again the whole thing is still shaky, but i'm on mandrake 10
i have never op.ed a suse so i dunno.
