  • Could you provide the command you used to start slashd? That might provide some insight.
    • I am having the exact same problem - except mind is a new install of slash. I just type slashd.
      • After rummaging through the code, $user in sub new() which resides in Slash/DB.pm isn't being set. I just added a line at the start like so: $user='slash' And that has fixed it. I don't know what caused the problem, however.

          AFAIK, /etc/rc.d/init.d/slash is what starts slashd, so if tobor used the same virtual user name throughout the system, then it should be set in /usr/local/slash/slash.sites file. The command I use to start slash (which I still haven't got portald to run automatically without using cron...I'm probably just going to use cron) is: /etc/rc.d/init.d/slash start Your install paths may vary.
