Hello Tom,
This could be the problem if you were a bit overzealous in your conf file
editing. On Ubuntu, localhost resolves to 127.0.0.1 while your machine name
resolves locally to 127.0.1.1. Because of this and the default listening
configuration for memcached, it is best to leave the cache section of
opensrf.xml as follows:
<cache>
<!-- memcache servers -->
<global>
<servers>
<server>localhost:11211</server>
</servers>
<max_cache_time>86400</max_cache_time>
</global>
</cache>
If you have substituted 127.0.1.1 or your FQDN where it says 'localhost:11211'
above, try changing it back to localhost, then restarting OpenSRF/Evergreen.
Your memcached process looks fine as it is, but I suppose you could instead
tell memcached to listen on 127.0.1.1 or your real IP address, as applicable.
You can do that by starting it with the proper -l argument, as shown in your
process list.

Dan,
Thanks. Output from the ps ax command gives the following:
5313 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/memcached -m 64 -p 11211 -u nobody -l
127.0.0.1
also checked the netstat command and shows localhost:11211 listen.
Question: On step 18 and 22 following the Ubuntu doc's, I set the 127.0.1.1 as
the localhost. Does this make a difference on where memcache is listening?

Hello Tom,
I think a bug may have cropped up in the Ubuntu install instructions. I cannot
be sure if this has changed, but it seems that memcached does not start up
automatically when first installed. It should start on the next system boot,
but short of that, you can start it most simply as follows:
sudo memcached -d
You can check if it is already running or not with:
ps ax | grep "memcached"
and
netstat -l | grep "11211"
to make sure it is on the right port.
Let us know if that helps,

Hi,
On a new install of Evergreen 1.2.1.4, following the server installation guide
for Ubuntu 7.10, I am at the point of trying to login to the staff client (on
same machine as server). The connection is made to the server without problem,
however, while trying to authenticate, I get an error message (see attached)
"method=open-ils.auth.authentication.init
params=["admin"]
THROWN:
null
STATUS: "
I am using the default admin login with default password. Having read through
the most recent postings, I could not find a solution for this. Any guidance
would be appreciated.
Tom Patterson
