I just installed usermin 1.221 on my centos 4.3 system. when I try to start it via the usermin module, I get a "Failed to open PID file" error in my browser. Anyone know where this file should be and what its permissions are? Thanks, Barry |

You might want to try killing all Usermin miniserv.pl processes, deleting that file and re-trying the startup. - Jamie |

Jamie - OK I got it working - Greg's message tipped me off on where to find it, and I checked on another serving running usermin, made files to match. Then I looked up and found your message too :) Not sure if this is a bug or not - there were never any pid files because usermin had never been running on this box. But the box did have my best (and somewhat incomplete) first effort to port the webmin/usermin configuration, including virtual servers from another box (Fedora 2 if it matters). Maybe I did something wrong, but maybe not. I dunno, but in case I found something buggy, there ya go :) Best, Barry Jamie Cameron wrote: > On 31/Jul/2006 14:37 Barry wrote .. >> I just installed usermin 1.221 on my centos 4.3 system. >> >> when I try to start it via the usermin module, I get a "Failed to open >> PID file" error in my browser.

I am trying to re-install the webmin upgrade (forcing via "install even if present already option) and that is hanging immediately after the download is complete. I seem to have it working now, after I used yum to remove usermin, and then reinstalling it from webmin. No users have ever logged in, so nothing was lost, but maybe this is a data point I did need to reboot as yum was hanging too during the uninstall. Thanks! Barry |
