cde exceed

A.G.M. Velthof — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 07:05:29 GMT

Hello all,

when starting exceed on a unixserver I get the login screen.
After logging in the window freezes wit "starting the common desktop environment"
I can perform a failsafe loggin however.
Anyone any idea?

Regards, Alfons

Alfons,

From you failsafe login, check the ~/.dt/errorlog for any indication of what the problem might be. You might also want to look at ~/.dt/startlog .

Pete,

the errorlog is empty and the startlog doesn't tell anything indicating something is going wrong.

Hi Alfons,

Could you check your .dtprofile, last line should be uncommented (DTSOURCEPROFILE=true).

My ip-address is set in the .profile --> export DISPLAY=.....

Hello Robert-Jan
The last line in .dtprofile is already uncommented.
The strange thing is, another machine with (I think) excactly the same configuration is working ok.
The startlog also is identical.

Hoi,

How about the permissions on the users home directory?

# mv .dt orig.dt

try again.

Hello Robert-Jan,

nothing changes.
I also tried root.

That may be a network configuration problem.
Check your network and DNS settings.
Also check /etc/profile.

hello Vladimir,

I checked the network and DNS settings.
The /etc/profile is identical to the other machine.

I'm sorry,

the script produces no errors, just a few warnings. The same as on the working machine.
