[Serusers] Sems Error

[Ulrich Abend]

Hi,

try to set log_stderr=yes and fork=no and debug=3 in sems.conf for testing, it 
should produce a lot of debugging output on your console when starting up.

There are a lot of possible reasons for SEMS not starting, please post the 
debugging output either from the commands above or from /var/log/syslog 
(under redhat the file might be another one under /var/log/ ...)

You can also check is sems runs by calling in your shell:

 ps ax | grep sems

Regards,

Uli.

P.S.: Please always CC to the list, others might answer quicker than me :-)
