H50 Unix Server

[David Dangerfield_1]

Started out as we thought we lost the token ring card. Changed it and configured it and still nothing. Getting the following error now.

INIT: Command is Respawning to Rapidly
Will Try again in 5 minutes
Check for possible errors
ID: vue "/usr/vue/bin/vuerc # VUE invocation

Wow, an H50 with a token ring connection! What OS version are you running?

There probably is some other issues going on in the system.

Have you brought the system up in single user mode and checked the syslog.log and OLDsyslog.log for error messages? Other logs to check - /etc/rclog and /etc/shutdown.log

Short term you can remark the vue startup out of /etc/inittab to get rid of the repawn message, but then vue will not start...

issue init q to requery the inittab file after the change.

WOW is exactly correct. This is an old old old test machine that we have been just waiting on death for it. I am bring it up in single userr mode now to check a few things. It is running 10.20 for now well that is if it will actually come up..lol

Shalom David,

Someone has put something in /etc/inittab that does not belong.

See about removing it or copying in a intittab from a working system.
