I'll admit I should have looked through more of the
archives, but right now my eyes are crossed and I can
no longer see straight<g>.
I'm trying to install gnats using the tk interface on
a Solaris based system. We are trying to stay away
from a web based solution for reasons that are to weird
to explain. I've gotten the gzipped tarball, un-gzipped,
untarred, etc. into a directory. Run through the
./install and everything seems to be there (as far as
executables goes). When I run the tkgnats program (after
making adjustments for what wish is called, etc.),
it complains:
"Sorry, you're trying to talk to a GNATS 0.0 databse
but this versions of TkGnats requires GNATS 3.110 or
newer."
Read the README's but I'm having problems finding my
way around. Of course, I need to tell it the database.
Looking through archives I come across gnats-db.conf. I
edit this file as so:
# sample /etc/gnats-db.conf file
# list of GNATS databases and aliases
# Field 1 - fully qualified path to database
# Field 2 - a comma separated list of aliases
# this is our location, etc. - /qtdevel is a local
# development area
/qtdevel/workspace/wayned/gnats-3.111/gnats/horizon:normal,horizon
/usr/local/gnats/standard-db:normal,standard,regular
/usr/local/gnats/alternate-db:alt
/home/gnats/special-db:special
I don't see where I actually create a database or specify
what database engine to use (does gnats come with one? I
have Informix available). I have USERNAME=anon,
DATABASE=horizon and PASSWORD=pw. These also need to be
changed as well to something approaching normal security
stuff.
Take care | This clown speaks for himself, his job doesn't
