Getting mad at the Linux D2OL client!

[RemyCanad]

I now have RH 8.0 up and running on my machine. But the problem is that it just sits there with the Engine initializing....

I updated the file via RPM and it doesn't seem to have did any good. I am going to go crazy!

 

[n0cmonkey]

What file did you update?

 

[Slapstick]

Check out this link to the D2OL forums Linux client doesn't seem to do work and see if that isn't the problem.

 

[RemyCanad]

Well thats what I did and it didn't do any good. I figured out why, other than becuase I am an idiot.. Its becuase it could not get any canidates! It had to of set there for over 5 hours trying to download. I should of remeberd that there server is having a problem...

 

[Polo]

Try here.

Hope this helps a little.

You should have tried Mandrake 9, instead of RH8. It automatically detected my network settings and got me connected to the Internet during the install procedure! Oh, and FWIW, I love the Linux DF client - its ~30% faster than the Windows CLI!

Actually Im using Mandrake 8.1.. It didnt like any of my network cards... finally got one that worked... Had to reinstall 4 times on two machines.

Have YET to download a Cand to crunch...

What you have to do is start the client in "cli" mode.

From a console window type the following:

"./D2OL controller:cli" (without the quotes)

The client should now start up properly and register itself!

From the console window you can type "ta" to either bring up the Agent gui window or shut it down or type "?" for a list of commands.

Did ya try that?

anybody have any experience with Solaris 9, my buddy dudleydog has a sweet server he can set up if we give him some help.

He posted a thread looking for help, I just bumped it back to the first page

Well Im sorry TeAm mates but I tried to get D2OL to run on my best two boxes with Mandrake 8.1 for whatever reason these bastages WILL NOT fill thier cues.. they continuously run out or dont load at all. I managed to get two whole cands all afternoon to crunch with the P4 BOX. I CANNOT conitnously reinstall and create false nodes on my profile. Unless someone can recommend a proven version of NIX I can go out and buy tonite that WILL WORK with the latest version Im out and will have to go back to slow mo Windows. I was hoping to double production as I also have two more setups coming to load up with D2OL but hell I cant gain performance if I have no candidates in que to crunch can !? I am one frustrated SOB right now. I am trying to decide what to do so as to not cause a large loss in production for more than a day.,, Today is pathetic! :|

Go back to Windows for a while if you have to, just to keep your production up. Im waiting on parts for a Linux box, and until I get those I am almost useless as far as troubleshooting this goes. When I get the parts, I will try to write up a how-to or something with various OSes (RH 8, Mandrake 9, whatever else I get around to..).

For not, all I know of to recommend is making sure you have that library installed. So unless this is a linux problem, Im stumped

Well what gets me is that it worked great on the earlier verson of D2OL.. If I could get that version back I would be fine. I would install a library but I dont know jack about how to do it or what it even is or where, or what version I need. I am using Mandrake 8.1

Thanks for helping us out and doing that for us! I just hate to think Im going to have to reinstall at least twice more to go back to windows and then back to linux when resolved

You may need to install libstdc++.so.3. So got o rpmfind.net and search for that. When you do that, you should find one Mandrake .rpm. Download it, install it, and restart the D2OL client. See if that helps.

Mastertech,
I'm running 9.0 but here is a good link and it has a link to the libraries I had to install.Text

Thanks Bro, Ill give it a try... do you just click on it to install or do you have to give some command?

 

[Shuxclams]

Download it to a directory that you would noramlly do that to. I use "/usr/local/downloads"...

]# mkdir /usr/local/downloads
]# cd /usr/local/downloads
]# ftp ftp.stealth.net
>ftp anonymous
>ftp myemail@myisp.com
>ftp cd Mandrake
>ftp cd 9.0
>ftp cd i586
>ftp cd Mandrake
>ftp cd RPMS
>ftp binary
>ftp get libstdc++5-3.2-1mdk.i586.rpm
>ftp bye
]# rpm -ipvh libstdc++5-3.2-1mdk.i586.rpm



See what that does.

[mastertech01]

Thanks peeps.. Its installed. Apps seems to work better.. I have 3 cands to crunch.. Ill let you know how it goes.. system booted fast this time too.

Gotta reinstall on the P4 if this works.. I just installed XP on it... LOL

 

[mastertech01]

Well Ive managed to keep a couple cands in que on the Tualatin machine. I may take the plunge again with the P4... Oh well its better to find out now than during the week when I am even more busy

 

[n0cmonkey]

Im glad Shux answered that because the only thing I know about rpms is that I do not like them

 

[mastertech01]

Actually all I had to do is download the file you linked me too and click on it. There is an rpm installer in the OS.. took only a minute.
