Title: New install ArcaOS 5.0.1 Arca Noae Package Manager wont load
Post by: R.M. Klippstein on October 26, 2017, 03:27:41 am
Opening the Arca Noae  Package Manager gives the following error:

Line 12 of init in yummie.vrm:
+++  Call SockLoadFunc;

Yum worked fine until I tried to figure out and fix this error, now its dead also.
Need someone smarter than me to help me fix this.

Thanks klipp

I'm pretty sure it might help if you show the yum error to figure out why yum might be dead.

Hi diver, I did the normal recovery steps for yum and it once again works fine now, not a problem with yum,  but same problem with AN Package Manager (yummie?) remains.
Re-installing AN Package Manager gives same failure.
any other ideas?

Thanks klipp

Try starting anpm with the /deb parameter, anpm,.exe /deb and look in %LOGFILES% for the log and perhaps post it.

Hi Dave, Nothing to post in the log file. This error occurs immeadiatly when I do anpm.exe. There is nothing posted in the log for todays date´Do you know where I can find the yumie.VRM file? I did a file search and there is no such file.

I think that yumie.VRM is the source code that is compiled to become anpm.exe.
All I can guess at about your error is a DLL conflict with one of the helper DLLs.

I think you are probably right Dave, probably a missing or botched up DLL. I just spent the day figuring out why libvpx didn't work, I needed it for compiling VBox source, turns out yum installed it but never included putting pkgconfnig/vpx.pc in/usr/lib! Maybe something similar with anpm.exe. If I don't get it figured out tonight I'll see if I can get a hold of Alex Taylor tomorrow. Thanks for the help.

Hi

You could try opening \sys\apps\anpm and \sys\bin folders then drag'n'drop anpm.exe onto pmdll.exe and see if there is a dll problem.

do you have a rxsock.dll in tcpip/dll dir? As SockLoadFunc wants to load this dll.

as a note libvpx-devel installs the vpx.pc

Hey Pete, I tried what you suggested and the results are O.K.  Also ran PMDLL and also got the same results as in ArcaOS  installed in a different partition on this same machine where anpm runs correctly.

Hi Silvan, I guess its probably obvious what happened when I used yum to install libvpx with anpm not working --- yum install libvpx instead of yum install libvpx* -- my screwup!  And yes I have rxsoc.dll in tcpip/dll

I can't help thinking that I've installed some other software that is blocking anpm from running?¿?

Thanks for the help  klipp

Try using Warpin to uninstall and then reinstall it, or even just reinstall. It's at S:\CID\SERVER\ARCAPKG\anpm.wpi on your install DVD.

Hi Dave, I'd tried this earlier with no good results, so I just tried it again to be sure and it still fails the same way. I use this particular machine  pretty much solely for compiling source code which seems to work without problems. And yum works well also, so I guess i'll just live with not having anpm and wait for the release of arcanoae 5.0.2.

Thanks again for the help given to me by you Sillvan anf Pete

Have you tried with deletion/renaming of \OS2\ANPM.INI?

Hi Andreas,  no I hadn't thought of that, but I just tried it now and it didn't fix the problem.
Thanks for the response.

It seems a silly answer, but just in case.
I recently passed a similar problem with anpm, and finally it was a tcp-ip configuration error.
 Specifically look at Hostnames - Name server address-- a value is needed

Have you checked rxsock.dll?

From the commandline execute: whichdll rxsock.dll

Also ensure that you have classic REXX installed.

Additionally, I would check \var\log\anpm.log, the last segment.

Is there a typo there? It was pointed out that the failing code,
Code: [Select]
CALL RxFuncAdd 'SockLoadFuncs', 'RXSOCK', 'SockLoadFuncs'
    CALL SockLoadFuncs

does not match the error number. If it is not a typo, your version of ANPM is corrupted, otherwise you have to figure out why RXSOCK.DLL isn't loading

O.K. Thanks to all, It still isn't fixed --  But , roberto's comment got me to thinking!  -- and I now know what the problem is!----there is no TCP/IPconfiguration directory in System Setup/Network/TCP/IP.  There is only options for Generic MAC Wrapper Driver and Adapters and protocols. NO TCP/IP option. That pretty well answers all the questions. Now if I can figure out how to add TCP/IPconfiguration, I'm sure it will work. Maybe I can just copy it from a different partition on this same drive where I still have a working install of one of the last betas. This has to be something I did wrong during the install, but TCP/IP is installed in Adapters and Protocals.

Boy do I feel DUMB now! All it took was to go to "Install Networking components" and click on install TCP/IP --- and now all is well.
Thanks again to all of you for the help.
