WildRice Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 What do these messages I find in my system log mean?

Mar 19 07:30:10 xxx /usr/libexec/fix_prebinding: /Applications/Retrospect Client/Retrospect Client.app/Contents/Resources/retropds.22 couldn't be prebound in the past, and probably can't be prebound now. -Chuck- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyJ Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 Upgrade to 10.2.4. This was an issue discussed in many threads in the forum (a search for fix_prebinding should bring them up). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildRice Posted March 19, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 I am using 10.2.4. I must be using search wrong also, since I did do a search on prebind befor I postedbut came up with 0 hits. I will try again. -Chuck- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallMeDave Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 Quote: What do these messages I find in my system log mean? It means that the system can't launch the pitond process prebound, so it binds it during launch. This effects the time it takes to launch. it doesn't take much time at all to launch pitond, so there's really not much to worry about. Much has changed in OS X since it was first shipped; Dantz seemes to be doing pretty well in adjusting to Apple's changes, but they're always going to be playing catch-up to changes in the OS.

jlucia Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Amy, Currently we have a client who is using an Xserve 1.33 1 Ghz running Mac OS 10.2.5 server and we are still getting the prebinding messages. Any ideas why? When we installed this setup, we copied the preferences from Mac OS 9 directly into Mac OS X. Is there anything wrong with doing that? ----- May 6 11:41:13 FileServer /usr/libexec/fix_prebinding: /Library/StartupItems/RetroRun/RetroRun could not be launched prebound. May 6 11:41:29 FileServer /usr/libexec/fix_prebinding: redo_prebinding on /Library/StartupItems/RetroRun/RetroRun:prebinding can't be redone for: /Library/StartupItems/RetroRun/RetroRun (for architecture ppc) because larger updated load commands do not fit (the program must be relinked).

AmyJ Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Does your client have any other copies of Retrospect on any of his mounted volumes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlucia Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Amy, Thanks for the quick reply. Not to my knowledge. They had only one copy installed on their internal HD on their old server (Appleshare IP 6.22). When we installed the new server, we installed a fresh copy of 5.0238 on Xserve's internal HD. The only thing we copied was the preferences. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyJ Posted May 8, 2003 Report Share Posted May 8, 2003 Hi Jeff - Just to be clear - this is a completely new machine, with a fresh OS, and fresh Retrospect? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlucia Posted May 10, 2003 Report Share Posted May 10, 2003 Hi Amy, Yes, it was a brand new Xserve with 10.2.4. We then updated to 10.2.5 and installed a fresh copy (only copy) of retrospect on the Xserve. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyJ Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 Is it a file server? Does it serve lots of files? Are there other copies of this binary stored on this server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
