Installing gridengine seems to fail with: Starting qmaster installation! Hostname: nbecker6 Aliases: localhost.localdomain localhost Host Address(es): 127.0.0.1 The current hostname is resolved as follows: Hostname: nbecker6 Aliases: localhost.localdomain localhost Host Address(es): 127.0.0.1 It is not supported for a Grid Engine installation that the local hostname contains the hostname "localhost" and/or the IP address "127.0.x.x" of the loopback interface. The "localhost" hostname should be reserved for the loopback interface ("127.0.0.1") and the real hostname should be assigned to one of the physical or logical network interfaces of this machine. Installation failed. /etc/hosts says: # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 nbecker6 localhost.localdomain localhost ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 What's the deal here? I thought that removing localhost would, as the comment in /etc/hosts says, cause lots of problems with various applications. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
