Sounds like it can't find fuse.so. Is it there? Also, be sure to copy the list and not just me. Others can help you as well and may know the exact cause of your problem. ;-) -- Chris _____ From: Pinoy Hatdog [mailto:pinoy.hatdog at gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, June 08, 2008 4:10 AM To: Christopher Hawkins Subject: Re: GlusterFS startup problems Hi Christopher, Thanks again for the speedy response. I've tried starting a basic setup again, though still no success. After going through the logs, here's the message I found from the client terminal: 2008-06-08 15:53:40 E [xlator.c:120:xlator_set_type] xlator: dlopen(/usr/lib/glusterfs/1.3.9/xlator/mount/fuse.so): /usr/lib/glusterfs/1.3.9/xlator/mount/fuse.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory TLA Repo Revision: glusterfs--mainline--2.5--patch-770 Time : 2008-06-08 15:53:40 Signal Number : 11 /usr/sbin/glusterfs -f /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol -l /usr/var/log/glusterfs/glusterfs.log -L WARNING /mnt/glusterfs [0x110420] /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe0)[0x8c3390] [glusterfs][0x80493c1] As for the server terminal, there were no errors in the log, so apparently this seems to be something that's limited to the client only. Thanks again. -Paul On Sun, Jun 8, 2008 at 1:19 PM, Christopher Hawkins <chawkins at bplinux.com> wrote: The directory where you will be mounting the gluster filesystem has to exist beforehand (just like mounting a cd, or NFS, etc.). First create /mnt/glusterfs and then try mounting it to that directory. Also, I'd expect glusterfs to log something like that, even if it doesn't throw an error when you tried to mount it. Check the gluster logs (and /var/log/messages) for any errors. I think by default they are in /var/log/glusterfs/glusterfs.log _____ From: Pinoy Hatdog [mailto:pinoy.hatdog at gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, June 08, 2008 1:13 AM To: Christopher Hawkins Subject: Re: GlusterFS startup problems Hello Christopher, Thanks for the quick response. After following your instructions, I was able to find the executable in the /usr/sbin/ folder. So what I did was to try to start a basic setup based on the instructions on the Install and run GlusterFS v1.3 in 10mins <http://gluster.org/docs/index.php/Install_and_run_GlusterFS_v1.3_in_10mins> page. I made the corresponding volume spec file for both the server and client, and then ran the following command on the server (just an addition, iptables have already been disabled beforehand): # /usr/sbin/glusterfsd -f /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-server.vol And the following command on the client: # /usr/sbin/glusterfs -f /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol /mnt/glusterfs After I executed the GlusterFS startup commands on the server and client terminals, I received no messages, so I understood that it had indeed started successfully. However, when I checked on the client terminal to see if there indeed was a /mnt/glusterfs directory, I was not able to find any. -Paul On Sun, Jun 8, 2008 at 11:50 AM, Christopher Hawkins <chawkins at bplinux.com> wrote: If you run 'updatedb' and then 'locate glusterfs', does it find the executable? Perhaps you didn't run 'make install' after you compiled? _____ From: gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org [mailto:gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org] On Behalf Of Pinoy Hatdog Sent: Saturday, June 07, 2008 10:33 PM To: gluster-users at gluster.org Subject: GlusterFS startup problems Hello, I'm quite new to GlusterFS. Recently I tried to install GlusterFS based on the instructions found in the Install and run GlusterFS v1.3 in 10mins <http://www.gluster.org/docs/index.php/Install_and_run_GlusterFS_v1.3_in_10m ins> page in the wiki. After installation, I tried to execute GlusterFS by entering the following command: 'glusterfs --help', wherein I received the message that the glusterfs command could not be found. Just in case it is needed, I am using Fedora 8 distro for GlusterFS, and I have verified that I have installed all the needed requirements for installing GlusterFS (the build process also produced no errors whatsoever). Thanks in advance. -Paul _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users at gluster.org http://zresearch.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
