NFS Server bloqued

[Service Informatique_8]

All,

At the beginning I've a daemon "NFS Server" bloqued.
It's trying to launch himeself.

But it doesn't start.

The system is blocked.

I don't know a combination to allow the system to continue its d??mmarage.

(The server is an HP Visualize B132Lt.
It has a keyboard french)
Thank you for your answer.

Another issue. Check /etc/fstab for nfs mounts. The hostnames should be resolvable and the nfs servers should be alive ...

Hi,

just to make sure that I did understand your question correctly I am rephrasing it:

you try to boot up the system and when starting the NFS service it does not continue and hangs?

If this is correct you probably have a problem with your name resolution. Try the following:

- boot system into single user mode
- check hostname:

$ hostname

- check if hostname is in /etc/hosts
- check if /etc/nsswitch.conf has a line like this:

hosts: files [NOTFOUND=continue] dns

If you don't have a nsswitch.conf create one. Use the above line if you use dns also but make sure to start with files ...

Check address resolution:

$ nslookup `hostname`
$ nslookup ip-address

These two outputs should match

hi,

You will have to check your nfs conf after boot, but you can cancel this startup using CTRL-\ when blocked in startup which stops immediatly /sbin/rc. After that you can log on the console. On your keyboard, it could also be CTRL-ALT-\ (I have a french keyboard ...)

Hi,

if the systemboot is hanging at one of the startup scripts (like NFS Server) you can scip the startup sessions by pressing:

CRTL+BREAK

This will join you to a login prompt. Then have a look in the /etc/rc.log file for errors.
