Martin,

As for why srfsh can't use /tmp/logs, my first inclination is to blame systemd's privatetmp feature:

My second inclination is to blame our (mis)use of autotools. I recommend that you follow the directions in the README and only set the prefix and sysconfdir options. Anything else is likely to break with OpenSRF and/or Evergreen.

Also, Jason.

Hi Martin, the srfsh log file is saved to the location specified in ~/.srfsh.xml and I’m not sure it’s affected by the configure command line. Since this is a user file you can edit it to put the log file anywhere your user can write. (I usually just use /home/<my_username>/.srfsh.log .)

You’ll likely want to rebuild and reinstall opensrf with the configure command line in the instructions before trying again.

And you’re right, opensrf doesn’t do much on its own and is only part of the installation of an evergreen system; Evergreen itself and its installation instructions are available here: https://evergreen-ils.org/egdownloads/ <https://evergreen-ils.org/egdownloads/>

Hi Everyone
I have been trying to get opensrf installed, and everything works fine until I try to start srfsh using the opensrf user. The message I receive is that the the log files cannot write to where I think the localstated configuration intends it to. I ran the ./configure command and sent localstated to --localstated=/temp/log but I am still getting the same error messages. At this point I'm stumped.

This means I can't get opensrf started, and am not sure how to proceed with installing Evergreen. I'm assuming everything hinges on the opesrf configuration and install. Also, should there be a separate tar file to download for Evergreen other than the opensrf file?

Thanks!

Martin
