Re: [Sks-devel] SKS Keyserver on Debian Etch

[Leonhard Kugler]

Hi all,

still have problems to get SKS running on debian.

I went through all README and Instructions I found, but always I am
reaching the same problem , the daemons are not starting.

For testing and getting into it i don't want to Setup SKS with a KEydump
so i followed the instruction on :

http://www.rainydayz.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=60:installing-the-opensks-keyserver&catid=34:linux&Itemid=53

the /etc/init.d/sks start

gives me two pid files in

lenny:/var/run/sks# ls -al
total 16
drwx------ 2 debian-sks debian-sks 4096 2009-04-10 18:24 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root       root       4096 2009-04-10 17:37 ..
srwxr-xr-x 1 debian-sks debian-sks    0 2009-04-10 18:24 db_com_sock
srwxr-xr-x 1 debian-sks debian-sks    0 2009-04-10 18:24 recon_com_sock
-rw-r--r-- 1 root       root          5 2009-04-10 18:24 sksdb.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 root       root          5 2009-04-10 18:24 sksrecon.pid


I installed Ocaml in the right version , Barkley DB 4.6 and all
dependencies.

I installed sks from the apt-get package in debian lenny


when i launch :
lenny:/var/run/sks# /etc/init.d/sks start
Starting sks daemons: sksdb.. sksrecon.. done.

all looks fine , but :

lenny:/# ps aux | grep sks
root      2366  0.0  0.1   3116   720 pts/0    S+   18:34   0:00 grep sks

there are no processes for sks.

What's wrong ? Any suggestions ? I am getting mad on this since a week :-)

Hope someone can give a hint.

Leonhard



What I tried so far :

- I changed all directory with sks to the debian-sks as owner


lenny:/# sks build
KeyDB directory already exists.  Exiting.

lenny:/# sks pbuild
PTree directory already exists.  Exiting.

lenny:/# sks cleandb
Fatal error: exception Not_found
