RE: {bb} 1.9e client/server on the same host

["Olga Khazanov" <olga@wellogic.com>]

Ok, thanks to everyone who replied to this issue, everything works just fine
now. Yes, I had to install both to the same directory, exactly as Kimberly
said! I had bb/ and bbc/ not united in 1 dir... 
Thanks again!
Olga.

Your bb-hosts file will have one listing for the server/client, as it is
the same machine. It will look like this:

IP.add.res.s bigbrother.yourdomain.net # BBDISPLAY BBPAGER BBNET ssh

Yes, I had it started at the boot time, there is a script line that I
added... BBDISPLAY is the same also, yes. But - I need to use 2 separate
uids I guess, because I run my BB server as bb... And bb-host files are
identical for client and server... I'll do that now and see if it
works...
Because it complained that it cannot start the server as it's already
started... I'll do a clean reinstall now since I modified too many
things to
make it run :) We'll see...

Thanks a lot!
Olga.

Hi, Olga,

It might help to think of them as two separate applications.

First, you have BB Server.  In your scenario, BBHOME is /usr/local/bb,
and
you start it by running "/usr/local/bb/runbb.sh start" (presumably in a
start script at boot time.)

Next, you have BB Client.  Its BBHOME is /usr/local/bbc, NOT
/usr/local/bb.
It must have its own bb-hosts in /usr/local/bbc/etc, and you start it by
running "/usr/local/bbc/runbb.sh start" (presumably in a start script
that
runs after the server's start script.)  Note that Client's bb-hosts must
have the same BBDISPLAY, etc. as the Server's bb-hosts.

Hope this helps!
Charles
