Forum Topic - running PPS on a read-only filesystem: Page 1 of 5 (5 Items)
   
running PPS on a read-only filesystem  
Hello,

I have trouble running pps. Here is my setup.
My root fs is read-only.
Writable ssd is mounted as /mnt/ssd. I created directories /mnt/ssd/pps and /mnt/ssd/tmp in it.
PPS executable is not ncluded in system image. I copy pps binary to /mnt/ssd/bin

I start pps with

pps -b -ggggg -p /mnt/ssd/pps/ -D /mnt/ssd/tmp

After that can see /pps created

But when I try
mkdir -p /pps/qnx/qdb
ls /pps

I get
ls: readdir of '/pps' failed (No such process)

I get the following messages from "pps -b" before failure:

pps: NOTICE: PPS initializing
pps: NOTICE: PPS attaching /pps
pps: NOTICE: PPS attached /pps major 2 minor 4
pps: NOTICE: PPS starting

Process 856091 (pps) terminated SIGSEGV code=1 fltno=11 ip=000000393ce3b14c(/mnt/ssd/bin/pps@io_read+0x000000000000032c)
 mapaddr=000000000000b14c. ref=00000000d8d750f8
Memory fault (core dumped) 

How do I run pps?
