Re: bad exit status 0x6 from sub-fork





Robert,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.  I did fix the problem late last night
before I went home and was going to post a "never mind" message along with
the fix.  I had downloaded your "rjc5" source distribution and looked
through the config.site file and found the extra linker options.

I've built all the libraries from source as well and installed under
/usr/local.

Anyway, here's the linker config lines I used...

     LIBTIFF="-L/usr/local/lib -ltiff -ljpeg -lz"  # linkage convention for
libtiff
     TIFFINC="/usr/local/include"        # place to find tiffio.h
     TIFFBIN="/usr/local/bin"      # where TIFF tools live

Thanks again.

- Rick

Hi,

>From /usr/include/sys/errno.h:
#define ENXIO       6   /* No such device or address    */

You built hylafax from source on HP-UX right?  Did you link the tiff
library correctly - the tiff library provided by he Interex users group
requires that you also link in the jpeg library at compile time otherwise
you end up with an unsatisifed link at runtime and the above error no.

ie in config.site something like:
#
# The source for the TIFF library is not required
# to build this software, but the library is required
# to link against.  If libtiff is installed in a
# non-standard location then setup LIBTIFF accordingly.
#
LIBTIFF="-L/opt/tiff-3.4/lib -L/opt/jpeg-6/lib -L/opt/zlib/lib -ltiff
-ljpeg -lz
"   # linkage convention for libtiff
TIFFINC="/opt/tiff-3.4/include"     # place to find tiffio.h
TIFFBIN="/opt/tiff-3.4/bin"     # where TIFF tools live

There might be other problems too, but this is the first thing i would
check.
