Hello All

 

I've installed pound via a compile (version 2.5) on Red Hat Enterprise 5.
However, it will not start up. The error message is:
"var/run/pound/ctl_socket" bind: no such file or directory"

 

I've googled this error, and looked on the KB, but nothing comes up.

 

Anyone have any idea on how to resolve this? 

 

Thanks! (I'm getting desparate!)

 

Anne

It might be that you're defining a control socket in your config
(optional), but I think you still need to create file/directory (don't
remember how it works).

You can try removing it from your config to see if it'll start, and then
add it back if it does.  It's related to poundctl (pound control).

Most likely problem is you haven't created a folder /var/run/pound, but have
specified it for the controlsock location in the config.

That did the trick! Thank you. I wonder why it's put in the configuration if
it's not used? So odd.

Do you know if there is a way to debug website pages that do not load
through pound? 

I have pound running on RHEL 4 and on RHEL 5, (version 2.5 compiled). And
one of our web pages will not work with it. It sends a "page cannot be
displayed" error. However, I have no idea how to troubleshoot this.

Any ideas on that? 

Thanks again!

You can try to troubleshoot it with the pound control (even though
that's what you just took out), or you can hit your webserver
individually to see if one of the servers isn't working.

I'd also look into the "sticky" session stuff that pound can do.  I had
a problem with sessions, but found that it works fine if you stick the
user on the same computer that the first request originated from.

Pound control came in handy at the time, but I really don't remember how
to use it since it's been a while.
