Good idea. Here's the result of the strace. I can't really figure out why it borks.
"open("/etc/ld.so.preload", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)"
It seems to look for this file in /etc . . only I don't have any mention of any ld.so.preload* on
my system.
write(1, "Load smb config files from /etc/"..., 47Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
) = 47
stat64("/etc/samba/smb.conf", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1243, ...}) = 0
open("/etc/samba/smb.conf", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1243, ...}) = 0
read(3, "", 0) = 0
close(3) = 0
write(1, "params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable"..., 83params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open
configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf":
) = 83
write(1, "\tSuccess\n", 9 Success
) = 9
brk(0x80c0000) = 0x80c0000
write(1, "Error loading services.\n", 24Error loading services.
) = 24
munmap(0x129000, 4096) = 0
_exit(1) = ?
Would it be broken due to the "..." as opposed to specifying /etc/samba/smb.conf?
Seems that the fstat isn't returning with anything, and the read is expecting the fstat to do so?
If anyone can help shed light on this - it'd be much appreciated. If there's anything else I can
do to further help in resolving the problem, please let me know. We have already determined in
prior emails that the configuration file is operational on other systems. Once again, the
description of the issue is the following. The full result of the strace follows:
