Hi there,

I have installed the AFS client from the source on a MVME6100 Power PC, but I can get it working yet.
When I type  /etc/rc.d/init.d/afs start I get the following error message:

Failed to load AFS client, not starting AFS services.

What could be the reason for this? Here are the steps through I went:

# ./configure --with-afs-sysname=ppc_linux24 --enable-transarc-paths
# make
# make dest

I copied the entire /motload directory, which appeared after the build in /usr/src/openafs-1.2.8/ppc_linux24/dest/root.client
/usr/vice/etc, AND the asfd file to /usr/vice/etc, and the afs.rc file to /etc/rc.d/init.d/afs

# cp -rp /usr/src/openafs-1.2.8/ppc_linux24/dest/root.client/usr/vice/etc/motload /usr/vice/etc
# cp -p /usr/src/openafs-1.2.8/ppc_linux24/dest/root.client/usr/vice/etc/afs.rc /etc/rc.d/init.d/afs
# cp -p /usr/src/openafs-1.2.8/ppc_linux24/dest/root.client/usr/vice/etc/afsd /usr/vice/etc

According to the Manual from openafs.org, that should do to start the AFS client whit the command.

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/afs start

But it didn't. So can someone give me some ideas what I did wrong (or what I didn't do at all), or maybe how to get more detailed information about the errors ocurring?
Thank you.

Best regards, Konstantin
