Thanks for your reply, I deleted /etc/slimserver.conf and ran
/etc/init.d/slimserver start. I got the same errors as in my original
post, with the addition of:

Cannot write to preferences file /etc/slimserver.conf, any changes made
will not be preserved for the next startup of the server.

Everything else on command line and log is as before.

I then ran:

touch /etc/slimserver.conf
and
chmod guo+w /etc/slimserver.conf

and reran /etc/init.d/slimserver start

the errors are now exactly as in the first post, and the file
/etc/slimserver.conf has a single entry in it:

securitySecret='some letters and numbers'

so I know it's probably not a problem with /etc/slimserver.conf
