rpm install refers user to http://localhost:/ (leaves out port number)
Last modified: 2008-08-18 10:53:41 UTC
Upon completion of install from rpm, the rpm output this message: Point your web browser to http://ponderosa:/ to configure your server. Presumably, it meant ponderosa:9000. That is, the port number is left out.
did you install this with an existing /etc/slimserver.conf? if so, what was the value for httpport in there at the time?
before installing, I uninstalled with `rpm -e slimserver` this moved /etc/slimserver.conf to /etc/slimserver.conf.rpmsave. So, no there was no /etc/slimserver.conf there. Also, I had never edited that file, so any values would have been the defaults, although I probably did not install from rpm since server 4.something or 5.something, I really had not done it in a while.
I wonder if the delayed writing of prefs file is responsible for this issue. Dan: were you going to adjust this behavior?
The delayed pref writing doesn't seem like it'd be the culprit.
Actually, it is probably is the delayed writing, since the RPM script can't find the httpport in the script and it should be there.
