Unable to log in (initial installation).

 Hello,

 I suspect that somewhere along the line I've missed
something
important or otherwise gone off track with this, but here
goes:

  I've built and installed out of hula-store and I am
anticipating
experimenting with Dragonfly.  The daemon runs fine
(complains about
spamd but all else seems fine), but I can't seem to log in. 
When I
try, I receive the following errors in the web interface -

ERROR: Exception GET /user/admin/preferences/dragonfly.json:
MochiKit.Async.XMLHttpRequestError: Request failed: HTTP
Error: 500/
(ht
tp://192.168.127.17/js/lib/MochiKit/Base.js:1077)
ERROR: Error loading preferences:
MochiKit.Async.XMLHttpRequestError:
Request failed: HTTP Error: 500/
(ht
tp://192.168.127.17/js/lib/MochiKit/Base.js:1077)

 Any pointers on where to look?

 Regards,

  -FC

Hello Frances,

If you are running the server with apache you should check
your apache error logs.

If you're using hula-standalone, it should print something
to the console you ran it from.

In addition, running hula-standalone with the --debug option
may have more information.

 Thanks for your rapid response!

  I should have checked this originally, my apologies.  I
was able to
determine that Apache wasn't loading the mod_python module
correctly
which was easy enough to resolve.  I do have an exciting new
problem
now, however.  ;)  Now it appears that it's trying to locate
my test
user's dragonfly.json file under
/var/www/user/$user/preferences/ and
is of course unable to locate it.  I am using the supplied
shnippet
for the Apache configuration.

 Any thoughts?

 Thanks,

  -FC

Frances,

Which snippet are you talking about?

If it's looking under /var/www then it's not trying to use
the mod_python module,
so something is still mis configured.

There should be a 'hula.conf' file in share/hula/examples
which has what the configuration
should be.

 Hi Jacob,

 That is indeed the snippet I'm working from.  I'll keep
digging at it
to figure out why it's not using mod_python...

 Thanks,

 Jacob,

 This might deserve a new thread, but I'll leave that to
your
discretion.  I became frustrated trying to figure out why
mod_python
wasn't working and the distribution I was working with was
only
partially familiar to me ... so, I compiled on a new (RPM
based)
distribution so I wouldn't have any "basic"
stumbling blocks.  Well,
I've got mod_python and everything working, which is
fantastic, but
now I'm unable to use hula-admin.  I segfault like so:

[demohula-test ~]$ /usr/local/hula/sbin/hula-admin demo
Enter password for admin:
/usr/lib/python2.3/optparse.py:668: FutureWarning:
%u/%o/%x/%X of
negative int will return a signed string in Python 2.4 and
up
  return ("<%s at 0x%x: %r>"
libhulacal: Generating system timezone cache
Segmentation fault

 Unfortunately, the debug argument doesn't tell me much:

[demohula-test ~]$ /usr/local/hula/sbin/hula-admin --debug
demo
Enter password for admin:
DEBUG: running command:
<hula.admintool.DemoCommands.DemoCommand
instance at 0xb7987b8c>
/usr/lib/python2.3/optparse.py:668: FutureWarning:
%u/%o/%x/%X of
negative int will return a signed string in Python 2.4 and
up
  return ("<%s at 0x%x: %r>"
DEBUG: options: <Values at 0xb7994f4c: {'demo_user':
'rupert',
'debug': True, 'authuser': 'admin', 'authpass': '*****',
'context':
None}>
libhulacal: Generating system timezone cache
Segmentation fault

 So far, just about anything I try to do with hula-admin
seems to
result in this (aside from getting the list of arguments,
that is).
Any suggestions?

 Thanks,

 -FC

Hello Frances,

Ok, let's just do this the fast and dirty way.

Can you run 'strace -f -o strace.out hula-admin demo; gzip
strace.out' and
mail the strace.out.gz file to me (not the list)?

Thanks,
 -- jacob

 You've got it; should be in your hands shortly.

The python problem aside, as it is unrelated) I'm seeing the
same crash
as above, all the components of hula start with the
exception of
hulastore which crashes with the above error. In addition as
in the
original report hula-admin crashes with the same SEGV.

Backtrace for hulastore is attached.
