[Xorp-users] XORP installation and xorp_rtrmgr

[Wei Wen]

Hello,

I am new to XORP. I installed it on my ubuntu machine. I followed the
installation steps and  think I installed it successfully. However, I don't
find a directory and file called "installdir/etc/xorp/xorp.config.  So I
tried to create a xorp.config file myself using the simplest example in
XORP's online getting started guide, and put it in the /usr/etc/ directory.
There was no such a directory before. Even after this, xorp_rtrmgr still
didn't work. It complained about a few things. But I don't know how to
fulfill these. The following is a list of the errors:

ERROR: Failed chown on path: /var/tmp/xrl.UNKsHs error: operation not
permitted
ERROR: Failed chown on path: /var/tmp/xrl.7ejB0F error: operation not
permitted
rtrmgr shutting down due to an init error: PARSE ERROR [config File
/usr/etc/xorp.config, line 1: No template found in template map; Last
symbol pased was "protocol"

I do not have the /var/tmp... directory and those files, and I don't know
why it was complaining about them. In addition, I did not have the /usr/etc
directory and xorp.config file. I added them. For the xorp.config file, I
copied the configuration from XORP's getting started document, and it is
the simplest one that I copied.

Could anyone please help me? Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

Wei Wen
