From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Netscape/7.1 (ax) Description of problem: When attempting a FTP install of FC2 Test2 with anonymous FTP login using a symbolic name (DNS), the process crashes after several minutes with a SIG-11. As a test I performed the same operations using same machine and RedHat 9.0, and RedHat 8.0 . Both worked with no problems at all. - Using EPIC100 eth driver. - Looking at the debug screens, we were able to obtain a DHCP lease OK. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): installer How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot CD 2. specify FTP install 3. supply symbolic name instead of raw IP address Actual Results: after several minute delay, screen was filled with unreadable Cyrillic chars, but the last line said "Signal 11" My FTP server was never accessed. Expected Results: actually access FTP server. Additional info:
What language are you using for the install? What ftp server are you using?
Language: English FTP server: RH7.2 (x86) Real Name: Ron Flory [USA] (ron.flory) In truth, I suspect the issue is really a DNS lookup problem. If I supply a dotted-quad IP instead of a machine name, the install continues without any problems. If I use a DNS name for ther FTP server the FTP server is not even contacted (yes, I monitor the logs). ron
This is done all the time by me when testing -- are you getting a DNS server to use when getting your dhcp lease (if you hit back, you should see the values filled in on the newt form :)
