opensbc aborts during startup

I seem to miss something obvious here, but can't figure out what.

I'm trying to build and run opensbc on a virtual server running Fedore Core 8 (x86_64). The server is a fresh install and updated using 'yum upgrade'. No problem building from the latest cvs source (gmake bothnoshared) but when I try to run it in console mode I get:

# ./opensbc -xc
All output for OpenSBC is to console.

I also tried it on CentOS 5.2 and even OpenBSD 4.3 (where I get a core dump). It works on Solaris10 on a T1000 though using the same source from cvs.

What am I missing? What do I need to check for? What is a recommended linux version to run opensbc on?

many thanks

I am not able to replicate this in my Ubuntu box. Can you try the following. Go to the OpenSBC directory and enter the following commands

make distrib
cd distrib
./startup.sh

check if OpenSBC is running as a daemon. If not please post the B2BUA log here.

Re: opensbc aborts during startup

I'd like to mention that this is a so called hosted vserver, so its not a native OS I'm dealing with here using Fedora Core 8. I don't know however the OS hosting the vservers.

Using startup.sh as suggested create core dump before writing creating any logs, however I get the following messages in /var/log/messages:

# tail /var/log/messages

I also tried the binary from ../obj_linux_x86_64_d but the core had the same error (with a different address pointer though every time it ran).

Once I managed to produce this, which might shed some light:

# ./startup.sh

Might it be related to the way threads are created at startup and hence kernel related?

Re: opensbc aborts during startup

Update: Have a linux vserver (from server4you.de) and a vmware (Fusion 2.0) based server, both running CentOS 5.2. On the vserver the image core dumps at startup as shown in my previous email, while it runs just fine under vmware.

So my conclusion right now is to avoid linux based virtual servers for now. It was anyway just for testing purposes. Won't make sense for deployment anyway.
