Can't index site!

Post by Thunderstone »



I am trying to install Webinator 1.2 under SunOS 4.1.3. When I try to index
a site (even under the installation script) I get the following errors (taken
from the log):

1996/11/11 09:28:13 Begin (14171) /usr/local/home/dab21/web-docs/data/webinator/bin/gw -d- -create
1996/11/11 09:28:14 Could not obtain semaphore: Invalid argument
1996/11/11 09:28:14 Could not open locking mechanism
1996/11/11 09:28:14 Could not obtain semaphore: Invalid argument
1996/11/11 09:28:14 Could not open locking mechanism
1996/11/11 09:28:14 Can't create database /usr/local/home/dab21/web-docs/data/webinator/db

Any ideas?

Check your kernel configuration.
You must have semaphores enabled in the kernel. It would appear that you don't.
