Hello all,
sorry to start e here with a problem, but I have a similar effect as
described here :
http://www.apsis.ch/pound/pound_list/archive/2006/2006-03/1143002261000#1143002261000

I installed from source and got Version 2.0.4 on a Box with dapper.

Even the most trivial pound.cfg gives an error.

BTW I changed config.c so that it shows more descriptive messages in this
case. Are you interested, Robert  ?


Greetings

Norbert

I have found I have to do a:
Shutdown -r now 
After setting the startup=1
Then I am able to modify the /etc/default/pound.cfg file, then just do:
/etc/init.d/pound start

No the problem remains for me.

That problem was due to the username not being quoted, I think.  From
your other mails you seem to be having the same problem I am.

I just tried upgrading to 2.0.4 and I got this problem too - "unknown
directive" errors on User "nobody" (the first line of the config file),
which had worked fine with 2.0.3.  I think the new regex stuff is
preventing the config file from parsing properly, but I don't know why.

I'm running Fedora Core 3 on x86_64, for what it's worth, so it's not
just a debian problem.

Interesting, I'm using 2.0.4 on RedHat 7.x and 9 and it works fine. Could
you please try my rpms. If they also fail, there must be some problem with
different pcre version or there is a problem now if you are not using pcre
with 2.0.4. The rpms are here http://www.invoca.ch/pub/packages/pound/
but
I don't know how well they work on x86_64.

I guess your package has been built without PCRE support. Did you check
your binaries with ldd? If that's true then there appears to be a problem
now when not using pcre.

It appears to be linked with the pcre library...  I'm not clear on
whether that's good or bad :)

Certainly - mail me (directly) the patch and I'll have a look at it.

As to your problem: I have no idea what version is distributed with
"dapper" (I assume Ubuntu). The OP problem was the lack of quotes around
the user name.[...]
