[OPEN-ILS-DEV] No authentication seed found.

[Héctor González]

Hi, I'm Hector Gonzalez, I've been reading the list archives, and I'm
trying to install Open-ILS for a local school.

The server is running debian etch, I followed a mix of the Ubuntu (with
1.2 changes) and Debian wiki pages, and the system is running now,
ejabberd is doing its work, the database is up and running, the OPAC is
finalized, but I still have some trouble.

Software versions are as follows:

js-1.60.tar.gz, extracted and installed to make the spidermonkey package.

made the following packages, with dh-make-perl:

libdatetime-format-iso8601-perl_0.06-1_all.deb
libjavascript-spidermonkey-perl_0.19-1_i386.deb
libmarc-xml-perl_0.87-1_all.deb

And compiled and installed Evergreen-ILS-1.2.0-rc4 and OpenSRF-0.9.  The
rest of the software is installed from debian etch, and the wiki
recommended package sources.

One problem is already mentioned in a message from Sept 25, from Bill
Ott, with subject "[OPEN-ILS-DEV] lib-setup.cgi funkyness", the Library
Hierarchy Setup does not work properly, sometimes changes are not made,
sometimes they are not shown, this does not seem related to postgres
foreign key constraints, and is not shown in apache logs as errors. 
Also, the errors Bill is getting do NOT show in my apache logs, I'm not
sure if my log level is different or not.

Updating the contact email or telephone for a branch does nothing, it
just redraws the tree, but no changes are made.
This happens both in firefox (linux), and explorer.

What is more of a problem is, I can't login to the OPAC.

when I try to login (Linux or web) authentication always fails, using
the default username and password, as found in the wiki.

After some digging in the log files, and fixing a lot of other stuff I
had missed at first, this is what I think is relevant from the
gateway.log file (after removing the INFO lines):

osrf_json_gw 2007-09-26 19:35:14

:8836:osrf_json_gateway.c:262:119085321188361] Gateway received error:
No authentication seed found. open-ils.auth.authenticate.init must be
called first

Apache's error log shows this line, seems the same message to me:
[Wed Sep 26 19:35:14 2007] [info] [client 189.169.63.24] OpenSRF JSON
Request returned error: osrfMethodException -> No authentication seed
found. open-ils.auth.authenticate.init must be called first, referer:
https://myhost/opac/en-US/skin/default/xml/myopac.xml?d=0

The web client blocks for a while, and never shows an error message. 
The linux client shows a network error.

The last problem is with srfsh, math_test returns empty messages, I
guess after some kind of timeout:

srfsh# math_bench 1 0
|.........|.........|.........|.........|.........|.........|.........|.........|.........|.........


empty message for tt: 1

empty message for tt: 2

empty message for tt: 3

empty message for tt: 4

      Average round trip time: 5.003631

Thanks in advance for your help.
