Hi list,

Inspired by Kermit Short's posting a week ago, I tried to install x2goserver on RHEL 5 (x86_64) today. Missing dependencies I installed manually. The dependency on the perl-file module reported by yum

Error: Missing Dependency: perl(File::BaseDir) is needed by package x2goserver

I tried to fullfill with

[root@hermes ~]# rpm -i perl-File-BaseDir-0.03-1.el5.noarch.rpm

Here's the transcript of the final installation by yum:

When I try to connect with the server, the x2goclient get's the following error message:

Verbindung fehlgeschlagen DBD::SQLite::db prepare failed: no such table: sessions at /usr/libexec/x2go/x2gosqlitewrapper.pl line 423. Can't call method "execute" on an undefined value at /usr/libexec/x2go/x2gosqlitewrapper.pl line 431.

Listing of x2go_sessions afterwards showed the file to be owned by the user trying to log in ('krause'):

[root@hermes log]# ls -l /var/lib/x2go/x2go_sessions -rw-r--r-- 1 krause x2gouser 0 Aug 23 13:41 /var/lib/x2go/x2go_sessions

Applying permissions as found on a working debian server, didn't improve the situation.

chown root /var/lib/x2go/x2go_sessions chmod g+w /var/lib/x2go/x2go_sessions

Now, calling x2godbadmin yields the same error message as during installation by yum:

[root@hermes log]# /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin "make_path" is not exported by the File::Path module Can't continue after import errors at /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin line 25 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin line 25.

Line 25 of x2godbadmin reads:

use File::Path qw( make_path );

Do I need a specific version of perl(File::BaseDir)? Any ideas how to fix the x2goserver configuration?

Thanks in advance,

Holger
