Re: RefDB web page..

Hi Markus,
explanation is simple. The script is lookign for the file in
/etc/refdb/ directory, but file itself is located in
/usr/share/refdb/etc/.
The same problem is with refdbarc.example and very likely with some
more files. So script does not match the data structure.

But at the end it does not succeed anyway ...

I've finished collecting all required information, and the checks look ok.
If you don't want to touch your existing installation, answer with 'n'.
Shall I proceed and set up RefDB [y/n]?
y
Saved existing refdbd configuration file as
/etc/refdb/refdbdrc.200703211409.57

Failed to install or upgrade main database

refdbd-init.sh failed.
refdb-init is finished.
mvolav:/etc/refdb#


In the attachment is my refdb-init file.  BTW, fresh instalation from:
deb http://refdb.sourceforge.net/debian/release testing main
Is there some updated deb package or should I fight with current one?

thanks

Jozef
