- Hello, TooltalkER,
-
- Sometime ago I posted a question regarding my problem while
- using Tooltalk File Scoping.
-
- I want to thank Mark Soloway and Frank Greco. They pointed out several
- important places in Tooltalk that might affect the File Scoping
- function, such as "real_path_name" etc.
-
- As Mark suggested, I set the environment variable TT_DM_DEBUG=8
- and looked at the traced data. I found one of the place that caused
- the function fail. In dm_server_svc.C, there is a place hard coded
- the file system table as /etc/mtab. However, it is a different file
- name in our machine (/etc/mnttab in UNIX SVR4.0 2.0).
-
- Unfortunately, my problem is still not solved. Two program running on
- two machine (using file-scoping) still can not pass data to each
- other. I noticed when the application startup, the rpc.ttdbserverd
- created a directory TT_DB. Is there any way that I can direct the
- location that the TT_DB be created? Any environmental variable
- should be set? When two app run on the same machine, they work fine
- (ie., can pass data to each other). However, if the app try to send data
- to the other app in the OTHER machine, it does not work and after a
- few time message_send, the tooltalk hangs (or data queue full?). Kill
- the app and re-start the app, the app works again. But, it hangs after
- a few times message_send, and so on. (I mean the Toooltalk function
- hangs but the application is still running)
-
- There are many information in the rpc.ttdbserverd traced data
- (with env TT_DM_DEBUG=8). Does anybody have idea how to interprate
- those information?
