Re: [vizstack-users] Problem running vs-configure-standalone from shree branch

Hi Simon,

Does GLX not work at all at your site ?

vs-get-limits is trying to find the maximum frambuffer size that is supported by your GPU.

Subject: [vizstack-users] Problem running vs-configure-standalone from shree branch

I'm trying out the head of the shree branch, and finding that vs-configure-standalone fails with the following output:

root@smlopt1-display:~# /opt/vizstack/sbin/vs-configure-standalone 

Processing Node 'localhost'...
Errors happened while trying to get the configuration of node 'localhost'. Reason:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/vizstack/sbin/vs-generate-node-config", line 489, in <module>
    limitData = open(temp_result_file,'r').read()
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/temp-vs-configure-system/temp-result-file'


Please fix the above errors & run this tool again
Failed to configure standalone configuration


Looking at the code it looks like vs-get-limits is failing to produce an output file. I'm pretty sure this is due to the issue I noted early on about GLX not working on this setup (there's no output from vs-get-limits, but looking at the code it's not going to work unless GLX is behaving itself).

What's odd is that vs-get-limits apparently isn't returning an error - I put a few debugging prints in vs-generate-node-config, and it looks like it's following the 'if ret == 0:' path every time it's run to get to the point it fails (line 489).

I'll have another shot at getting GLX to behave, but this failure mode is somewhat problematic . . .
