I'm trying to get freenet running on my gentoo box. After running 'emerge freenet' I try to start it with '/etc/init.d/freenet start' I receive the following message:
* To configure freenet, please run: * # ebuild /usr/portage/net-p2p/freenet/freenet-[version].ebuild After looking around I found out that I should actually be: ebuild /usr/portage/net-p2p/freenet/freenet-0.5.2.1-r8.ebuild config I then get the following output: * Would you like to update freenet files now? [Y/n] So I hit enter taking the default and get: * Press U within 2 seconds to try an unstable snapshot --22:04:25-- http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-latest.jar => `/usr/lib/freenet/freenet.jar' Resolving freenetproject.org... 66.35.250.210 Connecting to freenetproject.org[66.35.250.210]:80... connected.

Some preferences will be skipped. You can choose the default preferences by just hitting <ENTER> Setting: listenPort The port to listen for incoming FNP (Freenet Node Protocol) connections on. I gave it some random port number and pressed enter. It did nothing but go to the next line. After waiting a while I hit ctrl-c. When I reran it I got to this point and just waited seeing if this was just a notice and not a prompt. But after a few moments I pressed ctrl-c and received: (interrupted by user -- ctrl-C?) * Congratulations, freenet is configured and up to date * use '/etc/init.d/freenet start' to start it * You can always re-update/reconfigure your freenet with: * # ebuild /usr/portage/net-p2p/freenet/freenet-0.5.2.1-r8.ebuild config My /etc/freenet.conf looks like: ipAddress= listenPort=11252 seedFile=/var/freenet/seednodes.ref logFile=/var/freenet/freenet.log storeFile=/var/freenet/store diagnosticsPath=/var/freenet/stats routingDir=/var/freenet nodeFile=/var/freenet/node After puting in my routers external IP address and forwarding the port I ran '/etc/init.d/freenet start. It seems to have started freenet but when I point my browser to 127.0.0.1:8888 I just get an error. It doesn't seem to matter how long I wait I still get no response. I use Konqueror and the error message is: An error occurred while loading http://127.0.0.1:8888/: Could not connect to host 127.0.0.1 (port 8888) Is this a bug or just my own error? _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
