Ben,

the DB passoword is part of the DB url. See:
   http://www.openser.org/docs/modules/1.2.x/auth_db.html#AEN70

regards,
bogdan

This line?
    modparam("auth_db", "password_column", "password")

If so, yes, we did try altering that line to reflect the password for the 
'openser' user.  Is that what you mean?--If not, can you explain?

Thanks for the help.

Hi Ben,

Have you changed the password inside the openser.cfg file?

After further investigation, it looks as though this is actually caused by 
changing the default passwords for the openser and openserro users.  We tried 
changing the passwords in openserctlrc to correspond with the mysql user 
password changes.  We granted the rights accordingly in mysql as well.  We also 
found /usr/local/lib/openser/openserctl/openserctl.sqlbase and 
/usr/local/sbin/openser_mysql.sh that referenced the passwords and we changed 
them accordingly there and still had no luck.  We could not find any other 
files that seemed to reference the actual passwords.  So we then removed the 
database and tried a fresh install and got the same result.  So again the 
database was removed and this time we altered 
/usr/local/lib/openser/openserctl/openserctl.sqlbase and 
/usr/local/sbin/openser_mysql.sh to reflect the passwords we wanted to use, and 
ran openser_mysql.sh create.  This resulted in the same error as before.  So, 
we set all the files back to default with the default passwords, removed all 
mysql database info and again ran operser_mysql.sh create.  Then ran openserctl 
start again:

    # openserctl start
    database engine 'MYSQL' loaded
    Control engine 'FIFO' loaded

    Starting OpenSER : \E[37;33mINFO: started (pid: 3947)
    #

Sweet!  We then stopped openser and went and changed the passwords again in 
mysql and in openserctlrc and got the same error as before.  It is impossible 
to change the passwords for openser and openserro to something other than the 
default!  Crazy!  We do not want to run with the default passwords...

Any ideas?

We are using OpenBSD 4.0 i386, openSER-1.1.1-tls, mysql5.0.

Thanks,
Ben

Subject: openSER on OpenBSD: cannot start openser



Hello all,

I've just installed openSER on OpenBSD and I'm now trying to get openSER to 
start and am having trouble.  I try openserctl start and here's what i get:


    # openserctl start
    database engine 'MYSQL' loaded
    Control engine 'FIFO' loaded

    Starting OpenSER :
    \E[37;31mERROR: PID file /var/run/openser.pid does not exist -- OpenSER 
start failed
    #

After a bunch of reading it seems as if openserctl is now obsolete (???) and that you 
should use the init script.  I can't find reference for anyone running it like this on 
OpenBSD.  I have found openser.init file in /<src directory>/packaging/gentoo and 
/<src directory>/packaging/rpm, but i am not sure how to use them on OpenBSD (I'm 
rather new to OpenBSD... I'm used to the rpm style of things.)

I've searched and searched but can't find any info...  So. anybody out there 
using openSER on OpenBSD?  Or anybody know howto (or whereto find the info to) 
set up the start script for openSER on OpenBSD?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Ben
