[sharp-discuss] problem installing SHARP under linux

[Alejandro Buschiazzo]

Dear users,

I just installed the current version of SHARP under Linux Red Hat 9. 
Everything seemed to be fine...but, when users try to run jobs, we get 
this message:


ERROR in /usr/local/linux_prg/Sharp/sushi/cgi-bin/autoSHARP.cgi

Undefined error: The following return values are set:

     * Child error = 0
     * OS error = Inappropriate ioctl for device
     * Eval error =

Last entries in the http daemon log file:

In fact, looking in the users' Preferences panel, the submission 
mechanism gives "submission impossible" as only choice.

Second problem: although the server's name is darwin.immstr.pasteur.fr, 
the httpd configuration puts darwin only....last, but not least, the 
httpd-setup script doesn't seem to work at all, complaining that it 
can't be run remotely (obviously, we weren't running remotely! the 
chkhostname command doesn't work in our machine, could this have 
something to do with it?)


Cheers,
