Hi - I have a working CE with only bdii.noarch installed: ---------------------------------------------------------- [root@epgr02 ~]# yum list *bdii* Loading "kernel-module" plugin Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Installed Packages bdii.noarch 4.0.1-4 installed Available Packages glite-BDII.noarch 3.1.3-0 glite-TORQUE_cli glite-BDII.i386 3.1.18-0 glite-TORQUE_cli glite-service-discovery-bdii-c.i386 2.2.2-2.slc4 glite-TORQUE_cli glite-yaim-bdii.noarch 4.0.4-6 glite-TORQUE_cli ------------------------------------------------------------- To install the CE, I did: yum -y update yum -y install mysql yum -y install lcg-CA yum -y install glite-TORQUE_server yum -y install glite-TORQUE_utils yum -y install lcg-CE yum -y install glite-info-provider-ldap According to my cfengine stuff, I then felt the need to correct the permissions on the following files (but this might by a hangover from some long fixed problem): /opt/c-ares/lib/libcares.la owner=root group=root mode=644 /opt/glite/libexec/glite-info-wrapper owner=root group=root mode=644 /opt/glite/etc/gip/glite-info-generic.conf owner=root group=root mode=644 I also create the softlink /lib/libcares.so.0 -> /opt/c-ares/lib/libcares.so.0 There's a whole bunch of iptables/hosts.allow stuff next (which I'm guessing will be ok on your CE). Finally, I use the site-info.def file (minus passwords): http://epweb2.ph.bham.ac.uk/user/curtis/site-info.def.txt to configure the node. I also have a directory of vo.d/<support_vos> in my yaim-conf directory, but perhaps you already have that. The yaim command I used was: /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -c -s /root/yaim-conf/site-info.def -n lcg-CE -n TORQUE_server -n TORQUE_utils which then messed up my maui config, so I copied that back into place afterwards, and restarted maui. A reboot at this point doesn't do any harm.
