Leginon

The trunk version you are updating to uses redux to serve images on the webserver so that we can move to CentOS 6 (php 5.3 and above) and/or other newer flavors of linux for 3.0 release. This page will help you in doing this. Unfortunately, software package required by redux are not available on CentOS 5 if that is what you have now. This means you will have to go through the trouble of moving to CentOS 6.

I installed redux package on Opensuse11.4 and the command line redux tests (with and without the --server_host) went OK. But I am still getting the same socket_create() error. Reduxd is running, as the redux command line with --server_host ran Ok and produced a correct test.png file.

info.php shows that mrc module is installed.

But when I ran

php -q ex1.php | display

This works on the old ex1.php file, but not on the ex1.php under the myamiweb/test directory. The error is same--> socket_create(), as in the above post.

Found the solution.

1. First install the sockets extension for php

2. add the following lines to config.php of myamiweb

define('SERVER_HOST',"localhost");
define('SERVER_PORT',77777); ### or your own port number!!

Thank you.

Thanks for posting your solution. Looks like it is just a difference in linux distributions. CentOS decided to include the sockets extension into the main php package but SuSE has it in its own package.
