[hobbit] Hobbit server doesn't start on CentOS 5 with hobbit-4.2.0 installed
So, for the record, there is nothing wrong with the RPM?

Hi,
What about to increase shmmax in the system when it complains that cannot get allocated new 262kB? You can check what is your size: # sysctl -a|grep shmmax This cmd says you what is already used: # ipcs -m
You can increase it in /etc/sysctl (just put there something big, it is just a restriction, kernel.shmmax = XXXX) and then apply it by : # sysctl -p

I uninstalled hobbit-4.2.0-7.el5.re.i386.rpm and compiled hobbit-4.2.0 from source with the allinone.patch and get exactly the same error.
It might be worth noting that this was originally a minimum CentOS 5 install
- I had to install gcc-c++ (and rrd-devel and pcre-devel) to compile hobbit, and I previously had to install gcc for compiling some other software - all from yum.
The server has 2 GB of RAM but is running several other services.
Any other ideas?

Just compile it from source. If you don't know how to do that I can give you instructions command by command, just ask. I use CentOS5 on my boxes but I've never bothered with the RPM.

I haven't bothered trying the RPM again now that I have the source compiled version working, but there is probably nothing wrong with it. (I never suggested there was.) Or, at least, the RPM was not what was causing the problem I had - indeed the problem I had could have happened on any version of Linux, etc..

I tried OTRS, how do you like it?
I've been looking for an intraoffice ticketing system for the longest time. OTRS is a communication tool between customer base to employees, so it didn't fit my need. Let me know if you have something that I could use =)
Sorry for the off topic, just starting to get desperate. Funds are low for the technical needs...

FTR my Hobbit server:
-> sysctl -a|grep shmmax kernel.shmmax = 4294967295

Hi,
What about to increase shmmax in the system when it complains that cannot get allocated new 262kB? You can check what is your size: # sysctl -a|grep shmmax This cmd says you what is already used: # ipcs -m
You can increase it in /etc/sysctl (just put there something big, it is just a restriction, kernel.shmmax = XXXX) and then apply it by : # sysctl -p
Cheers,

I uninstalled hobbit-4.2.0-7.el5.re.i386.rpm and compiled hobbit-4.2.0 from source with the allinone.patch and get exactly the same error.
It might be worth noting that this was originally a minimum CentOS 5 install
- I had to install gcc-c++ (and rrd-devel and pcre-devel) to compile
hobbit, and I previously had to install gcc for compiling some other software - all from yum.
The server has 2 GB of RAM but is running several other services.
Any other ideas?
Sebastian

Just compile it from source. If you don't know how to do that I can give you instructions command by command, just ask. I use CentOS5 on my boxes but I've never bothered with the RPM.

I installed an RPM of hobbit-4.2.0 called hobbit-4.2.0-7.el5.re.i386.rpm, which I probably got from here:

http://rpm.razorsedge.org/centos-5/RE/repodata/repoview/hobbit -4-4.2.0-7.el5
.re.html It includes the All-in-one patch. So I configured the cfg files and started hobbit, but I get this in hobbitlaunch.log:

This is the first time I've started it, so I presume that this is normal: "Cannot access checkpoint file /usr/libexec/hobbit/server/tmp/hobbitd.chk for restore". The problem looks like this: "Could not get shm of size 262144: No space left on device". I see that there are two similar issues listed on <http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/known-issues.html > http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/known-issues.html that relate to FreeBSD, but none of the sysctl keys listed are in this version of Linux:
cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5.centos.plus ( <mailto:mockbuild at builder6.centos.org> mockbuild at builder6.centos.org ) (gcc version 4.1.1 20070105 (Red Hat 4.1.1-52)) #1 SMP Thu Oct 25 06:49:40 EDT 2007
Google returns 1 result for "Could not get shm of size" "No space left on device" and that was the Known Issues page I've already checked. Any ideas?
Also, I noticed that the hobbitd.pid file did not get deleted when hobbitd terminated. It seems like it should have been.
Many thanks,
Sebastian
