On IRIX 5.3: /etc/init.d/cadmin (mediad/objectserver)

[Alexander Horn]

Hi holy SGI-Geeks,

I got this at my melanie (IP22) in /usr/adm/SYSLOG:

Jul 19 11:09:08 1D:melanie objectserver[3261]:
bad magic number 0xdb6d in database data file: Invalid argument
Jul 19 11:09:08 1D:melanie objectserver[3261]:
error initializing database: Invalid argument

I've done the following:

melanie# /etc/init.d/cadmin stop
melanie# /etc/init.d/cadmin clean
melanie# /etc/init.d/cadmin start

But the error comes again... What I must do, to fix it?

Thanks in advance,
-Vaxima

So, I'm assuming you _need_ the objectserver for some reason?? Because if
not, you're better off without it. Buggy, nasty thing.
