Hi all,

I am struggling arround since hours about fifo.
I get all the time a syntax error. Tired several things like chmod, cr /tmp/ser_fifo as a file or directory, created a /temp/ser_fifo.

Changed ser.cfg to

fifo="/temp/ser_fifo"
fifo_mode=0666

with / without "" does not help all the time a syntax error.

Can someone explain
- what fifo is (file or folder) - would gues it is a file (first in first out)?
- does fifo needs to be created before?

I changed /temp/ or /tmp/ to 666 but this does not help either.

starting ser shows me

[root@ser /]# ser -f /etc/ser/ser.cfg -c
 0(8574) parse error (23,1-5): syntax error
 0(8574) parse error (23,1-5):
ERROR: bad config file (2 errors)

wherin line 23 is the one with fifo.

Kind regards
Patrick
