Lab 5 Part 1 Zebra setup

Hello,


When running the command to activate the Zebra daemon :

zebra -d -f /home/lca2/Desktop/lab4/configs/zebra_r3.cfg -i /home/lca2/Desktop/lab4/run/zebra_r3.pid -z /home/lca2/Desktop/lab4/run/frr_r3.api -u root -k

I get the following error :

errors: ZEBRA: [EC 100663299] Can't bind zserv socket on /home/lca2/Desktop/lab4/run/frr_r3.api: Operation not permitted

I can't find any info about this error (and it happens for all routers). Does anyone have any clue about this ?

Hello,
Thank you for your question.

Honestly, it is hard for me to debug this offline, as I do not know what has caused this error; I suggest having a meeting, either a Zoom meeting from now to Friday or during the lab session; we will fix the problem then.

Best,
Hossein

Hello everyone,

We just fixed this problem; I am writing what caused the problem, just in case others experience the same error:
1. Please put the lab4 folder on the desktop, not linked to the shared folder (i.e., do a hard copy)
2. Whenever you overwrite a folder, you must close the previously opened terminal, and you should open a new terminal to work on that folder.

Good luck with the labs and do not hesitate to post or ask your questions.

Best,
Hossein
