Hello, i have installed my cabal server on ubuntu, using alien.
I have managed to fix libssl errors and service not found errors.

I do have a new error and suggestions ?

Code:
root@CABAL:/home/cabal# service cabal start
/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions: 19: /sbin/consoletype: not found

okay I found some stuff !
I will make this server work on ubuntu (my ubuntu server boots in 5 seconds)

when you look at "/etc/init.d/cabal" and "/etc/init.d/cabal_server" you see that the scripts calls for a "/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions" which is a redhad/centos specific bash set of functions.

so far i have modified "/etc/init.d/cabal" and "/etc/init.d/cabal_server" so instead of:

Code:
# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

it has this :

Code:
# Source function library.
#Redhat functions
#. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
#Debian functions
. /lib/lsb/init-functions

it gives me a different less violent error.. next I'm going to make links to server executables in "/sbin/" and see how that works.


EDIT: Creating symbolic links in sbin to the server files doesn not work
