Hi Rich,
I was reading your messages with interest last week and tried some
of the commands that you were having problems with, but I was
getting normal results, so I wasn't able to help you at all.
However, I have only just now powered-up a new TS7250 that I
received recently, to find that I get the same results as yourself
when I tried to do anything to do with httpd. I quickly realised
that it was exactly the same problem that you had mentioned. Well,
now I had something to play with.
In the end, it looks like it has something to do with the kernel.
The version on flash is a -ts9 kernel. I compiled a -ts10 kernel
(which in itself is a bit of an issue because of problems with
building for Yaffs2 support, I would have thought this would have
been tested before it was released) and that worked absolutely fine
with no other httpd.conf changes or anything.
Just for everyone's information, another major symptom of this bad
kernel: I'm able to add other users (using adduser, etc), but unable
to login as any other user at all.
It's strange that this bug hasn't been picked up be TS or anyone
else until now? Anyone else with recent TS7250 (-ts9 kernel) who
maybe don't normally use httpd or non-root user accounts care to try
this and see what they get?
I am debating now whether to spend the effort to try and locate the
problem in ts9 or just run with ts10...
Cheers
Phil
