On FreeBSD, I start gdomap when the system boots up. When I log in and
fire up X11 (currently no xdm or similar) I start gdnc and gpbs in
~/.xinitrc Though gdnc is complaining about not being able to contact
gdomap, everything is working fine.

OTOH, occasionally, I stop all GNUstep-related tools (usually when
updating GNUstep) and forget to re-launch'em again. But once I fire up
any GNUstep application (Gorm most notably) all required tools are
automatically started without any problems or messages (except those
that they ARE being started).

Yes and no. On linux/x86 I just need to start gdomap. Once gdomap is 
started, the other daemons will start automatically and work fine. (If 
gdomap is not started before attempts to automatically start them are 
done, but results are often broken). I just put gdomap in my startup 
script of the X11 session. This is handy, since gdnc for remote displays 
needs to be started differently than local ones.


On other platforms, most notably BSD based ones, there are heavy 
troubles starting things automatically. Since I have now a NetBSD/x86 
box I can exclude also "exotic" architectural problems. I confirm that 
on netbsd I need to start gdomap first, gdnc then. gpbs and others gets 
started fine. INterestingly, if gdnc is started automatically by an 
application it does start (as seen with ps -aux) but it doesn't seem to 
work and the application complains it can't contact gdnc.

I had such problems, but they disappeared with latest (1.11.2) release of base,
probably the following entry in Changelog is relevant:

2005-11-20  Richard Frith-Macdonald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Source/NSDistributedNotificationCenter.m: Rewrite code for connecting
to and starting up daemon to handle the process more quickly and
smoothly.  Only complain if we can't to connect to it even after
launching it and retrying the connection for five seconds.

With regards, Roman.

Yes, I'm using the code on HEAD, the latest as of about 2 hours ago.

The message says "NSInternalInconsistencyException:unable to  
contact GDNC server - please check that the gdnc process in  
running.  I attempted to start it at '/usr/GNUstep/System/Tools/ 
gdnc'."


I don't know why you should be having any problem ... but you could  
try running with --GNU-Debug=NSMessagePort  to get debug output of  
the attempts to contact the gdnc process.


You could also try running under gdb and setting a breakpoint in  
NSTask-launch to see exactly how the daemon is being launched.

Could you please let us know what the messages/logs say?
I take it you're running HEAD ?
