camorri Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 I have been trying to get Popfile running. I installed it using urpmi. When I try to connect to http://127.0.0.1:8080 I get The connection was refused when attempting to contact 127.0.0.1:8080 I get the same error message when tryijng to connect using http://localhost:8080. From what I understand, after connecting, I shoudl be able to configure the bucketts. If I do a 'chkconfig --list' i get the follwoing line: popfile 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off So, it appears to be enabled for run levels 3, 4, and 5. If I do a 'popfile stop' the last few lines show: [/code] Starting... {core: history mq config A copy of POPFile appears to be running. Attempting to signal the previous copy. Waiting 10 seconds for a reply. The other POPFile failed to signal back, starting new copy logger} {interface: html xmlrpc} {classifier: bayes} {proxy: smtp pop3 nntp} POPFile Engine v0.20.0 running Can't locate object method "get_user_path_" via package "POPFile::History" at POPFile/History.pm line 1167. Any thoughts on what to do to get this going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopy Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Is port 8080 open ? Depending on your network setup there... You may need to forward this port to this computer running popfile ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camorri Posted November 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 I ran namp and it reports that port 8080 is in fact closed. Now I know what ports are open, and 8080 is not one of them. How do I open this port? Never had to do this before. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scrimpshire Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 When popfile successfully starts, you will be able to connect to it....the port will open. Your problem is here: POPFile Engine v0.20.0 running Can't locate object method "get_user_path_" via package "POPFile::History" at POPFile/History.pm line 1167 Which means popfile died. I have found no answer to the problem. The "There seems to be a running instance..." error is one I have been getting lately, even though popfile is not actually running. It's annoying but harmless.

camorri Posted November 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 O.K. I got popfile going to the point where I can connect to port localhost:8080. Here is what I had to do. I had attempted to follow the install instructions to install popfile from the tar archive. That did not work, I cound not get this step to work. " chkconfig --add /etc/init.d/popfile " I then made the mistake of installing the rpm using urpmi. That produced the errors above. Lesson learned... To get things going, I uninstalled the rpm, and then went back through the install instructions and wipped out all the files I had installed from the tar archive. Next I installed using the rpm. I can now connect to localhost:8080. Thank-you for the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
