Re: X-server can not be started

Hmmm - you can copy dlkm to dlkm.new and dlkm.vmunix.prev to dlkm.

What happns when you repeat:
isl> hpux -is /stand/vmunix
and switch to 2 and 3 again?

Re: X-server can not be started

I copied dlkm (-r) to new and then dlkm.vmunix.prev to dlkm.

reboot -> same error

 

isl> hpux -is /stand/vmunix

init 2  ($TERM= unknown)

init 3  ($TERM= unknown).

Re: X-server can not be started

One suggestion:

Use 'setparms initial' to re-define network, hostname, ...

See 'man 'setparms' and read which informations you need when you run the command.

Re: X-server can not be started

Hello Mati,

 

I followed your suggestion and use the set_parms to reset (to the same parameters) the hostname, ip address and subnetmusk.

Still, same error message is received.

I also checked /etc/rc.config.d/cde and it was match to other system I compared with.

 

I guess we declare it an unsolved problem.

Re: X-server can not be started

I would like to note that it is possible to remote connected the machine via Exceed. Then, the value TERM is properly set (dtterm).

Re: X-server can not be started

At which step of the boot process does $TERM= unknown appears?

Re: X-server can not be started

The $TERM=unknown appears only when I echo to $TERM.

The following messages appear after the system is brought up, when I login to the root user (on the screen that connected to the HP machine):

 

" Type ITE_x80y24 unknown "

" The value TERM has been set to unknown "

Re: X-server can not be started

Type ITE_x80y24 unknown

 

Not really a problem. The VGA screen is now used as a text console, hence this problem. You may consider to do an "export TERM=xterm" for example. But when you changed the IP address of this server, how did you do this? Using "set_parms"? Does "nslookup <your_host_name>" work???  I would now run "dr_dt" and let this tool check your system.


Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: X-server can not be started

Hello,

 

>You may consider to do an "export TERM=xterm" for example

Already done - no effect.

 

>But when you changed the IP address of this server, how did you do this? Using "set_parms"?

Yes

 

>Does "nslookup <your_host_name>" work???

It works,

 

Name: host_name

Address: ip_address

 

>I would now run "dr_dt" and let this tool check your system.

Done:

0 error message

4 warnning messages

Where do I find the warnning messages?
