[Newbies] Headless Squeak on Redhat - HELP!

Tue Mar 4 09:05:32 UTC 2008

Hi,

unfortunately I can't help. But I'd like to take the chance to maybe get an answer to a similar problem.

I got a virtual server running with a Suse 9.3 Linux. Usually there's no X11 installed (but I tried so some month ago, just to see whether this helps with my problem).

I never got Squeak running headless. I always get a segfault. I tried it with different vm, I think the current one is compiled from svn. 
Compiling the vm and all that works. Now today upon that mail I tried it again and it looked a bit more promising, but still I don't get it running. 
On my local Linux I got no such problems, even though this usually makes more trouble due to being a 64bit machine.

Now, if I use the default image, installed with inisqueak in some directory and try to start it with

squeak -vm display=none

I get the following output (I was already quite happy about that in an awkward way as usually I see much less :)

-----------------------------------

using as command 

squeak -headless

I get

>
Segmentation fault

-2126831928 UndefinedObject>?
2142441752 ByteSymbol>?
Speicherzugriffsfehler

------------------------------------------

if I use the sq3.9-7067web07.12.1 image, where I initially tried to start VNC in order to use the image once running remotely I get with

squeak -vm display=none sq3.9-7067web07.12.1.image

the following

>
Segmentation fault

-2128125960 UndefinedObject>?
2138702056 SmallInteger>?
Speicherzugriffsfehler                       --> memory access error

-------------------------------------------

but with 

squeak -headless sq3.9-7067web07.12.1.image

I get again the one from above with -vm display=none and the other image. Which doesn't make too much sense to me
as -headless is supposed to equal -vm display=X11 -headless, what would make sense to not work correctly as
I either don't have it installed or at least not working correctly.

I hope this is just a silly error on my side. Maybe somebody can help me.

Thanks for any help.
