Hi, I am trying to set up a venti server but I can't. I am using p9p on linux, downloaded around January 21. I followed all the steps described on venti(8), a number of times starting from scratch, but I always get
vtversion /dev/fd/8: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/7: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/8: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/8: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/7: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/7: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/7: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/7: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/7: vtversion: bad format in version string vtversion /dev/fd/7: vtversion: bad format in version string while querying the venti web server. Before this, >: venti/fmtbloom /my/partition warning: size not a power of 2; only using 128MB fmtbloom: using 128MB, 32 hashes/score, best up to 23,860,929 blocks is the only step that produces a warning. Maybe I'm doing something wrong somewhere, but I obviously don't realize. Last time I had to set up a venti server (~1 year) things went OK, and I am doing more or less the same as I did back then, as far as I remember. Here's my venti.conf index main isect /dev/ventihd3 arenas /dev/ventihd2 bloom /dev/ventihd4 mem 43M bcmem 85M icmem 128M and my partitions are Name Flags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ventihd2 Primary Plan 9 237990.26 ventihd3 Primary Plan 9 11901.99 ventihd4 Primary Plan 9 131.61 according to cfdisk.
