**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Feb 24 10:59:56 2006 Feb 24 11:48:55 HopsNBarley: that seems to be fallout from the big DEPENDS->RDEPENDS change last month. Feb 24 13:07:24 hi to all Feb 24 13:07:59 i ve this problem: i ve tried to install mysql ipkgs into my openslug 2.7 Feb 24 13:08:14 the install goes fine Feb 24 13:08:46 but when i try /etc/init.c/mysql start Feb 24 13:08:53 i get: Feb 24 13:09:15 Starting MySQL...................Error! Feb 24 13:09:47 does anyone have some advices ? Feb 24 13:13:10 yes Feb 24 13:13:22 sh -x /etc/init.d/mysql start Feb 24 13:13:27 see where it fails Feb 24 13:14:59 ok Feb 24 13:15:57 it seems to loop Feb 24 13:16:10 in "wait_for_pid_created" Feb 24 13:17:06 i=0 Feb 24 13:17:18 test 0 -lt 35 Feb 24 13:17:25 sleep 1 Feb 24 13:17:48 etst -s /var/mysql/Pannello.pid Feb 24 13:17:56 i=1 Feb 24 13:17:59 .. Feb 24 13:17:59 .. Feb 24 13:18:10 after i=35 Feb 24 13:18:13 it exit Feb 24 13:19:43 ok, the pid never shows up Feb 24 13:19:50 tried starting mysql manually? Feb 24 13:20:05 not yet Feb 24 13:20:20 then you'll probably see error message from mysql Feb 24 13:21:51 yes Feb 24 13:22:04 if i only call mysqld_safe Feb 24 13:22:41 i get: stopping server from pid file /var/mysql/,pid Feb 24 13:33:04 i see a strange behaviour Feb 24 13:33:24 the script mysql_install_db Feb 24 13:33:47 witch executes at the end of ipkg install mysql Feb 24 13:33:54 gives me this error: Feb 24 13:34:56 /home/repvik/slug/releases/Openslug-2.7-beta/tmp/staging/i686-linux/bin/hostname not foud Feb 24 13:49:25 sounds like a bug in mysql.. Feb 24 13:49:29 in the build Feb 24 13:49:46 look for it in the config, it might be in there :) Feb 24 14:04:15 sorry but Feb 24 14:04:38 what do you mean with "for it in the config" ? Feb 24 14:37:54 rwhitby, i started with a fresh monotone db and directory (in an attempt to fix) just a few days ago. so it's still lurking in there. Feb 24 14:39:46 andrea_: the scripts that came with mysql are borked Feb 24 14:40:41 all the mysql-scripts use a hardcoded path from the box they were built on. Feb 24 14:41:00 (And in the 2.7-beta case, that happens to be my homedir) Feb 25 00:41:01 Hey, quick question: Is there any reason not to use a dedicated system disk? Say, if I were to use the same USB hard drive for openslug and media storage. Feb 25 00:42:22 Heh, I meant is there any reason TO use a dedicated disk. Feb 25 09:30:15 good monring #openslug Feb 25 09:31:16 morning, eFfeM Feb 25 09:31:42 finally time again for the slug Feb 25 09:32:57 actually I'm building up courage to open the slug to mount the header for serial Feb 25 09:33:15 got a siemens data cable the other day ... Feb 25 09:33:19 cool Feb 25 09:33:38 it's rather easy :) Feb 25 09:34:22 i had someone else removing r83 for me and soldering this always-on circuit Feb 25 09:34:58 but he couldn't get the holes open with sucking wire, I'll either push with a needle from the back or use the shaking method Feb 25 09:35:19 later today probably, wanted to finish some other things first. Feb 25 09:35:25 I used the patented "Percussion Method" on two of my slugs ;) Feb 25 09:36:25 yeah, seems a good plan Feb 25 09:36:58 how did you actually mount the cable? Feb 25 09:37:13 i have a 2x5 flat cable connector that I was planning to use Feb 25 09:37:16 I cannibalized an old motherboard for some pin headers Feb 25 09:37:42 the first time I used a CD-ROM audio cable Feb 25 09:37:43 got my headers in an electronics shop yesterday Feb 25 09:38:34 hm, that's a good plan. I knew I had a cable lying around, but I just could not find it. The cdrom-audio is a hint where it is Feb 25 09:38:46 * eFfeM is now ducking under the computer in the cabinet Feb 25 09:39:49 got it, thanks a lot for this great hint Feb 25 09:39:53 np Feb 25 09:40:43 actually this is much better than what I had in mind and one audio cable can help two slugs Feb 25 09:40:51 yup Feb 25 09:41:06 it's easy to remove in case you need it elsewhere Feb 25 09:41:18 (and you won't destroy anything if you yank it off) Feb 25 09:42:25 yeah, did you just solder the cable to the audio cable, I didn't really want to have a large cable bungling outside the slug, but I'm not good in mech engineering :-) Feb 25 09:42:48 so didn't want to try to modify the cabinet to let it fit in Feb 25 09:43:31 actually I was pondering about an intermediate connector, but I haven't found anything suitable yet (that way I can connect the cable only if needed) Feb 25 09:49:40 nail, on the nslu2 serial page changed this: Feb 25 09:49:41 NB: In the photo above, a set of header pins has been attached to J2. As sold, J2 consists only of a row of holes, filled with solder. Feb 25 09:49:43 into Feb 25 09:49:54 NB: In the photo above, a set of header pins has been attached to J2. As sold, J2 consists only of a row of holes, filled with solder. First action for any of the methods below is to mount such a header (you didn't consider soldering your cable directly to the board, did you?). After that construct a cable to connect to this header using one of the methods below. As an easy starter one can cut a CDROM audio cable in two. That will give you a fou Feb 25 09:49:54 r pin connector with some wire to connect to. Alternately a flat cabel header can be used. Feb 25 09:50:22 too long for one line :-) Feb 25 09:50:27 brb Feb 25 09:51:55 hmm where is the "bootstrap.sh" in the armeb-foftfloat-stage1? i cant find it :( Feb 25 09:52:07 trying to build stage1 nativeley on my nslu2 Feb 25 09:52:10 eFfeM: thanks :) Feb 25 09:53:00 or better: im trying to build a "normal" system, based on glibc instead of uclibc on my slug Feb 25 09:53:28 but i dunno, where to start Feb 25 09:54:02 a "normal" system like openslug? Feb 25 09:55:14 ah sorry.. wrong channel.. i thought to be in gentoo-embedded :) Feb 25 09:55:37 na :) a "normal" system like i use it on my desktopmachine Feb 25 09:56:06 just compile everything what i want nativeley :) Feb 25 09:56:24 but also mutt and w3m or things like that which require glibc and not uclibc Feb 25 10:10:19 For any interested parties, I've fixed what I believe to be the outstanding bug on slugos-*-3.6-beta. Testers are welcome (feeds should be correct for all dists shortly) Feb 25 10:14:57 (The release can be checked out from svn, releases/slugos-3.6-beta/) Feb 25 10:51:55 hmm isnt it neccessary to use gcc -mbig-endian and -msoft-float when building for the nslu2? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Feb 25 10:59:57 2006
