Can't get Routing Daemon to Run


Hi All,

How does one troubleshoot why a daemon doesn't run after installing it?


How do I know if a debian source package will run on my debian etch system?


After installing, ipxripd does not show up with ps -A or top.

Thanks,

-John




The Details:

I'm not sure if I'm fighting a compatibility issue, and installation issue or a newbie being dumb issue. Any and all comments and direction would be helpful.

I'm upgrading a Debian Sarge 3.1 system to a new 4.0 system.

The ipxripd binary package which worked with sarge, is not included with etch for some reason.

First I tried installing the sarge binary package onto etch, it seemed to install, but didn't appear to work.

Then I learned how to install source packages, figured that a package compiled on my machine stood a better chance of working on my machine ... doing that wasn't real hard but it doesn't seem to work either.

I've done an # apt-get -b source ipxripd in an empty directory as root. All sorts of things happened and I'm left with a subdirectory with what looks to be all of the ipxd source, some scripts and executables.

There are some warning messages that happen, not sure what they mean for me.... The full screen output is inculded at the end of this message.


In that sub directory I've tried executing ipxd, no errors, but nothing happens. If I look at the /var/log/daemon.log file, there are no entries for ipxd or ipxripd. There is an entry which I don't understand ..

identd[20942]: started


In the ipxripd directory created by the ap-get -b source command, I've tried #make install as the README suggests... no success.

I'm stuck, any suggestions on what could be wrong, or some techniques on how to troubleshoot this problem.

Thanks in Advance for any thoughts or suggestions,

I do not use Debian but sidux.

Have you tried opening a shell and
Code:
su
apt-get install ipxripd
messages will display in the terminal
