Problem running evm and cvm on 5500 with 3.10 roms Options

[jeff_burch]

I've recently upgraded my 5500 Z's rom to 3.10 and installed Jeode evm and Sun's cvm.

Whenever I run either program from the embeddedkonsole or a telnet session, I get the following error messages:

$ type evm
evm is hashed (/home/QtPalmtop/bin/evm)

$ evm -version
QSocket::writeBlock: Socket is not open
QSocket::writeBlock: Socket is not open
QSocket::writeBlock: Socket is not open

If you want to run this program as a server,
add the "-qws" command-line option.

$ type cvm

On the old rom, I only had this problem when running from a telnet session. I got around it by adding this to my .profile:
export LOGNAME=unknown

This LOGNAME trick doesn't appear to work anymore. What should I try next?

I'm wondering if I need to install or enable the Qt/Embedded server for the new rom? How would I check? Here is a process dump:

Thanks in advance! - Jeff

Well, I've made some progress. I need to set this environmental variable:

export LOGNAME=zaurus

Note that I had "unknown" before. Now I get this error message:

$ evm -version
Qt/Embedded data directory is not owned by user 0
Aborted

$ cvm Example5
No application name set, use cvm instead
Qt/Embedded data directory is not owned by user 0
Aborted

I think one problem is that you're running as "root" on the 5500 but the packages you installed created directories owned by another user (probably Zaurus). You could fix that with a chown command.

Also, search the forum for "cvm" for examples of how to run it. There are several parameters you are supposed to pass it, such as the application name.

Finally, check your environment variables, such as QWS_DISPLAY among others and make sure they are set correctly.

I solved my problem! I had removed the zaurus line from /etc/passwd by mistake. Now I can run evm and cvm as user zaurus. Make sure to export LOGNAME=zaurus from your .profile.
