[hobbit] OT: Anybody Here Use Qpage?

[Jeffcoat, Al]

Hi,

I was never able to get qpage-3.3 working on AIX, everything looked ok, compiled clean, etc,etc.  It's been a long time, but if I remember correctly, it was similar to your problem.  The fix for me was going from qpage-3.3, to qpage-3.2, and it worked fine then.

You can dl from the same place, just change it to qpage-3.2, ie:

http://www.qpage.org/download/qpage-3.2.tar.Z

Hope that helps,

Al

Hi All,

We have finally got around to getting a pager for after hours
notification.  Seems that email to SMS isn't that great when your SMTP
gateway is the server in trouble :-)

I have downloaded and compiled qpage (http://www.qpage.org), and it seems
to work OK - except it throws the following error:

bash-3.00# qpage -d -q 60
giving up root privileges
becoming user 'daemon'

Error reading configuration file

So it seems it can read the config file OK, but just doesn't like the
contents.  I read the sample in the man page and can't see any issues.

I am running on Solaris 9 x86, and compiled qpage from source using gcc
3.4.3 (installed as a package from http://www.blastwave.org).

I have emailed the qpage author but have not had a response.  Does anyone
else here have experience with qpage?  Especially getting the config to
work!

TIA,
Andy
