Its been a day of great frustration trying to get this going so I hope someone will have some ideas here.

I decided to take a shot at upgrading just by running yum again pointing at the stable night - the upgrade process appeared to run just fine.

However it was all downhill from there. Once I had that installed, I then tried to start merovingian and upon doing so received the following error message:

merovingian cannot open config file /var/tmp/monet.GNU.32.32.d.5761/MonetDB5/.GNU.32.32.d-Fedora8/etc/monetdb5.conf

I have no idea why it would be looking at that path.

So anyway just to try and make progress I then created the above directory and put a copy of monetdb5.conf in there - and then the error message went away.

However, when I try to run mclient I am now getting this 'sql' not initialized

mclient -lsql --time --database=demo !MALException:setScenario:Scenario 'sql' not initialized

Before all I had to do was run merowingian and then I could use the above mclient command ok, but not any longer.

Then I decided to try with mserver5 and it cannot find the sql libraries so it seems:

# MonetDB server v5.6.0, based on kernel v1.24.0 # Serving database 'demo' # Compiled for i686-redhat-linux-gnu/32bit with 32bit OIDs dynamically linked # Copyright (c) 1993-2008 CWI, all rights reserved # Visit http://monetdb.cwi.nl/ for further information # Listening for connection requests on mapi:monetdb://127.0.0.1:50000/ #WARNING: LoaderException:loadLibrary:sql: loader error lib_logger.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory !MALException:MAL.getAddress:address of 'sql.SQLsession' not found !MALException:MAL.getAddress:address of 'sql.SQLsession2' not found .... snip (many more error lines like the above)

So then I decided to try everything from scratch. I built a new server, installed the stable nightly from scratch, and then I wound up with the exact same as everything I wrote above.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
