[Serusers] error starting ser daemon with persistency support

[Klaus Darilion]

try to start ser in debug mode.

at the begin of ser.cfg:
debug=7
fork=no
log_stderror=yes

this will give you a lot of information and hints to the error!

regards,
klaus

We are trying to compile ser 0.8.12 on Solaris 2.8 using gcc 3.3. The 
compilation and installation go smoothly until we tried to start the ser
daemon with persistancy support.

We followed the instructions listed on the website. First, we modified the
MySQL configuration file to increase the maximun connections allowed. Second
we restart the MySQL daemon. Third, we modified the ser_mysql.sh file to 
set the username, password and path properly and used it to create the MySQL
tables. Then we modifid ser.cfg file and uncommented the following lines:

   loadmodule "/depot/package/ser_0.8.12/lib/ser/modules/mysql.so"
   loadmodule "/depot/package/ser_0.8.12/lib/ser/modules/auth.so"
   loadmodule "/depot/package/ser_0.8.12/lib/ser/modules/auth_db.so"
   modparam("usrloc", "db_mode", 2)
   modparam("auth", "calculate_ha1", yes)
   modparam("auth_db", "password_column", "password")

uncommented and modified the following lines:

   if (!www_authorize("<our domain name>", "subscriber")) {
          www_challenge("<our domain name>", "0");
          break;
   };

Finally, we tried to start the ser daemon by directly calling the binary "ser",
and the got the following error message:

>ser
ERROR: bad config file (1 errors)

How can we find where the error is? All the modules listed in the configuration
file are present in the directory. What else could go wrong? 

Thank you very much in advance.
