Stuck on "Starting the rest of the services" using SSH

[fosterhouse]

Winding down the install of Amahi, it starts various services (MySQL, HTTP, etc)

Then it comes to "Starting the rest of the services" and hangs.

I'm using SSH to install (I'm lazy). Tried to ping the server, no response. Tried to ping what the Amahi Control Panel says it should be on, no response.

Code: Select all

ifconfig eth0

...shows no IP address.

I logged in locally, it is responsive and everything, but I just want to make sure that I can reboot with no problems. I tried looking into the log:

Code: Select all

nano /etc/yum.repos.d/hda-install.log

but there wasn't anything there.

[cpg]

the hda-install.log is not located there by default.

it's located in the folder where you ran hda-install.

Most users install right from their home directory (root).

So all you would need to do is login as root:

Code: Select all

su -

and then do:

Code: Select all

less hda-install.log

That will show you what is in the file, that is if you just did su - and then hda-install CODE when you installed Amahi.

Installed under the root account. There is no other user, X won't load for some reason so it reverted to the text based installer. I have never had a GUI (GNOME, KDE) on the three or four install attempts.

Anyway, log isn't in the /home folder. Actually, nothing is in the home folder.

[cpg]

type

Code: Select all

cd ls -l hda-install.log

cd ls -l hda-install.log

Cannot access hda-install.log: No such file or directory

[cpg]

just look in the directory where you ran hda-install
