Boot problem - CDE does not started.

[yank]

Hi!

Please, help me!
I try to run HP 712 (without network), but by some problem the CDE does not started.
I dont have any error when I run "dmesg".
When I look onto the /etc/rc.log file I see that CDE login server was started ( I don't see any error too).
When the station finished to boot I get string : Concole login
By my opinion the problem is display, but what to do with it I don't know 8(((

I really will be greatful for any advice.

Thank you.

Additional information:

when I look onto /var/dt/Xerrors file I see:
error (pid 1009); Access file /usr/dt/config/Xaccess, display /usr/dt/config/Xaccess unknown;

Basically,I would check hostname resolution issues (do nslookup to your hostname,check /etc/nsswitch.conf etc).Could also be that your hp 712 takes X server from somethere else?Without network means cable detached or attached (could be that DHCP is active?).

In addition:
I would check if in line "hosts" of /etc/nsswitch.conf "files" go before "dns".
Run
1)hostname
2)uname -a
3)nslookup hostname
4)nslookup IP (to return the same hostname as in 3)
5)/usr/contrib/bin/X11/dr_dt >file.txt 2>&1

I try to startup it without network. DHCP is disabled. I don't get even login window of CDE.
In past, same stations were worked without network.

When I run : nslookup ip i get
Trying NIS
Trying DNS
*** Can't find ip: No response from server.

[Zeev Schultz]

Well,it seems that nslookup first goes to NIS.
I would put files in /etc/nsswitch.conf like this:
hosts: files
That will make resolving (which CDE uses) to
use /etc/hosts.Check that /etc/hosts contains
hostname and ip for this hostname.

It's done.
But anyway, the CDE does not run.
May be to do something else?

When I run /usr/contrib/bin/X11/dr_dt
I get following warnings:WARNING: The software specification "HPUXEngCR700" refers to a bundle

some of the software specified could be selected. The messages

Some another points:
See what in the /etc/dt/config/Xaccess.It could contain hostnames,if it does - move
the file to /etc/dt/config/Xaccess.old AND
don't create a new one.After that run /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -reset.

Check /etc/rc.config.d/desktop
see if "DESKTOP=CDE".
Try to run /usr/contrib/bin/X11/dr_dt >file.txt 2>&1,see warnings / errors in file.txt. It checks file permissions.

Spasibo, Vova!

The problem was solved.
The solution is:
remove # sign in the
/usr/dt/config/Xservers and
/etc/dt/config/Xservers

Thanks.
