Getting on setting up IRIS, one of the big Itanium boxes – to hold the same software as DIANA (the DS10), involved new software to be installed. Started with the MariaDB database (5.5.58) as downloaded (and installed on DIANA). Setting up the software is no problem, but when starting the script to create an empty database, this failed when creating certificates: the script refers to SSLROOT: which doesn’t exist, and later on, the server program crashes. But I made a mistake in the beginning so no database was created.
Missing SSLROOT is easily solved:
$ DEFINE SSLROOT SSL$ROOT:
and I restarted the script – now without errors. Creating certificates was no problem – but the server still crashed:

There is a new version of the software available (5.5.59), so that may solve these problems. And a new version of WASD webserver as well, to be installed on both AXP as Itanium, later this week.

Diana’s fan now has stalled…But it’s pretty cool up here, and the system isn’t very busy, so it won’t be much of a problem for a short time. A new fan has been ordered – waiting to be delivered this week.
