Computer hangs during compilation

[vitoco]

My PC dies during while running the ./setup ... no keyboard, mouse or network response :mad:

I tried twice, and both times the process stopped just after the following:
making all in apps...

My box is a Pentium 4 with an old video card (I don't want a graphical desktop on this server), running a fresh CentOS 4.2 ServerCD installed using notes for 4.1 (http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-470.html) and 4.2 (http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-1646.html).

Hints? :confused:

Thanks... ++Vitoco

Compiling the packages makes a heavy load on your PC. Have you checked if your cooling system is ok and your processor does not get to warm?

[falko]

Can you try this:
cd /tmp
wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-0.9.8.tar.gz
tar xvfz openssl-0.9.8.tar.gz
cd openssl-0.9.8
./config
make
make install

Does that work?

[vitoco]

Does that work?
Died exactly at the same point without an error message: gcc req.c

I could hear how the processor's fan changed it's speed during the compilation, so I'll try opening my box and forcing an overcool using an external fan, as till suggested...

Thanks!

Strange... Normally OpenSSL doesn't make any problems at all when you compile it...

[vitoco]

Solved. As Till suggested, it was related with the cooling system. There is something in req.c that generates too much heat in my processor.

Then failed with the "ERROR: The URL is not reachable!" problem. I had to restart all again unsuccessfully. It seems that it is also required to remove the ispconfig prior to retry ./setup ... BTW, is it possible to retry only the last part of the setup?

Now that I it is working OK, I'll have to learn more about DNS setup and how to config ISPConfig behind an ADSL modem with NAT.

Thanks again... ++Vitoco

Yes, you must remove ISPConfig after a failed installation attempt.

BTW, is it possible to retry only the last part of the setup?

No, that doesn't work.
