WSeB Server parts on ARcaOS 5.1 with installed Samba - what to deinstall?

[Sigurd Fastenrath]

I want to install the WSeB Server parts on Top of ArcaOS 5.1, as I did several times before, using the great tool of Alex Taylor.

Unfortunately I missed the point to NOT install Samba/Network parts during the initial ArcaOS Installation. So I do get an error code (I think it is something like X1604, do not have it around yet) when trying to install the WSeB parts.


As I do not want to reinstall everything from scratch (it is a bit of a special installation, what would lead to a lot of work), what components do I have to deinstall, and how, to get the Server Tool from Alex to let it do what it is supposed to do?

Thank you very much for hints!

I will attach a screenshot of the error code in a few hours.

You need to track down the log files generated by the install so that you can figure out exactly what install step failed.

The 0x1604 error code is from CID and means that something failed somewhere and do not reboot.  As you have noticed, it's not telling you what failed.

I typically sort the log files in date descending order and find the file that reports what actually failed.

Hi Steven,

thank you very much for looking into this!

Is it of any help?

Thanks again!!

EDIT;

Searching for SYS3175OS/2 leads me to this homepage:

https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/os2-warp-server-40-sys3175-installation-error-and-multiple-cd-rom-drives-servers

It refers to multiple CDROM Drives, if I understand correctly. But I do not have more than one, and this is usb.
I will try to disable USB CDROM Support and try it again.


EDIT II:
Same error, no difference

Question are you installing under Virtualbox ? Or is this on bare metal ?

 Hi Sigurd,

  This is a total shot in the dark: do you have the 'STUBFSD.IFS ISOFS' line in CONFIG.SYS? If so try disabling that. Maybe disable UDF.IFS too, reboot then retry.

Thats not the cause! The issue is this PGM file is ran by the PEER installer. Alex his installer calls the PEER installer and then the peer installer calls this PGM file.
I asked if this ran in Virtualbox as I have sometimes seen the peer installer crash because of this reason.

Sigurd try running the system with /MAXCPU=1 behind ACPI.PSD and see if this is an SMP issue. Normally this installer is ran with a single CPU core switched on.
Try this and let us know what then happens.

Thank you Roderick and David, but none of the tipps helped. The same POPUPLOG.OS2 as before.

Sigurd,

One more shot in the dark.  Try temporarily removing

E:\usr\local\lib;E:\usr\lib

where E:\ is your UNIXROOT
from your CONFIG.SYS before you run the install. 

I think I remember there is a conflict in one of the DLLs or executables in the unix stuff with something in the IBM networking stuff.  If that is the case this might explain why it worked before and this time, when you have the samba stuff already installed, it fails.

Checking my WSeB over AOS 5.1 install (which has Samba installed but it was installed after WSeB) I see that I have the USR\LIB and USR\LOCAL\LIB after all the networking stuff in LIBPATH.

[Sigurd Fastenrath]

Thanks Doug,

but unfortunately no change.

I think, I will start from scratch once I have time for it.

Thanks to all!

What logs are in \var\log ? Do a dir /od.

Sigurd,

This

  SS:ESP=05c7:00003732  SSACC=00f3  SSLIM=00003fff

indicates we failed with stack overflow.  Of course, this does not tell us why.  We need to see to logs to get some idea of what the installer was doing at the time of the exception.

Hi Steve,

can you briefly explain why ? The segment is not an expand down segment so the offset (3732) should always be <= lim (3fff) which it is.

To me the error more looks like 5c7:4f34 (ES:"value of P2") has been attempted to access (DS is 0 which seems odd ...). And 4f34 certainly exceeds 3fff.

By the way: do you know what P1=00000008 (XCPT_SPACE_ACCESS) is supposed to mean ? I could not find any info about that.

Hi Steven,

attached are the only two log files related to lan server stuff, I was able to find.

There are no Server related logs in \var.

Thank you very much,

At this point I would say I do not think there is anything else we can really do. Unless Steve has questions. For some unknown reasom that PGM file crashes. But the root cause is not known.
Did you test it on another system Sigurd ?
