RE: [mv] Minivend is just not working....I've tried everything
****** message to minivend-users from "Kevsurf" <kevsurf@mindspring.com> ******
Ok, I got Minivend installed correctly as root and I chowned all of the
files associated with Minivend so that they are owned by the username
minivend.
I have done the following also:
1. Made sure that /usr/local/minivend/etc/socket was chmoded to 666 after
the server was started or restarted.
2. Rebuilt the catalog running makecat fromt the username minivend.
3. Checked that my vlink/tlink file in the cgi-bin is chmoded 4755.
Here is the output of my error.log file:
- - - [06/April/2000:18:24:48 -0400] - - STOP server (13377) on signal TERM

Any suggestions on how to correct all of this are greatly appreciated.

I've never installed from the RPM, but I would guess that it cannot open
the package because the permissions deny it? I'm not sure what
packages.rpm is, but it is obviously not part of minivend. I wonder about
the double slashes in front, as well.. but that shouldn't cause it to fail.
You could install everything as root, and then chown the files to minivend.

At least on my Linux machine, cd ////var//lib////rpm/ works to
/var/lib/rpm/ -- so that's not an issue.
