Set up GT4

Damn scim, I can not input Chinese with pinyin, sigh.

OK, today Smile let me set up the GT4 environment and study WSRF programming. I need to do the former thing at first.

First I have to install the GT4 binaries, it goes well.

Second, configure the system, refer http://www.globus.org/toolkit/docs/4.0/admin/docbook/quickstart.html#q-first.

In most of the part it seems correct, but there are some exceptions:

1 postgresql:

root@choate:~# vim /var/lib/postgres/postmaster.conf
root@choate:~# grep POSTMASTER /var/lib/postgres/postmaster.conf
POSTMASTER_OPTIONS=”-i”
root@choate:~# vim /var/lib/postgres/data/pg_hba.conf
root@choate:~# grep rftDatabase /etc/postgresql/pg_hba.conf
host rftDatabase “globus” “140.221.8.31” 255.255.255.255 md5

This is not true in Debian sid. The former file postmaster.conf doesn’t exist and the latter file pg_hba.conf is /etc/postgresql/8.2/main/pg_hba.conf.

2 When I start globus, the log shows some error:
Connection refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections. Connection refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.

I googled it, and found the answer:

modify postgresql.conf as follows:

56 listen_addresses = ‘*’
57 #listen_addresses = ‘localhost’ # what IP address(es) to listen on;
58 # comma-separated list of addresses;
59 # defaults to ‘localhost’, ‘*’ = all
60 # (change requires restart)
