Forum OpenACS Q&A: aolserver 4 + OpenACS on Solaris

hi!

Has anyone managed to get openacs + aolserver4 running on solaris. I am stuck with different kinds of errors all related to either getting a db handle or releasing one...

here is one error message:

[21/May/2003:13:09:18][16517.1][-main-] Error: Server startup failed: Error duri
ng bootstrapping
invalid database id:  "db"
    while executing
"ns_db releasehandle $db"
    (procedure "db_release_unused_handles" line 18)
    invoked from within
"db_release_unused_handles"
    (procedure "apm_load_libraries" line 34)
    invoked from within
"apm_load_libraries -force_reload=$force_reload_p -packages $packages -test_init
"
    (procedure "apm_load_packages" line 32)
    invoked from within
"apm_load_packages"

I am working with 4.6.3, but I suspect this to be some aolserver issue. any ideas?

Thanks!

Yes Don!

I have included nsdb in the service.tcl file. Found a thread on aolserver mailinglist but am not sure how relevant it is...

Tammy M. pointed out (on the AOLserver list) that this might be due or related to the ns_eval problem Vinod found (which hasn't been fixed yet). People were reporting similar 'invalid database id: "nsdb0"' errors there...
