[SOLVED] LTSP, “error: LTSP client installation ended abnormally”
I wanted to test ltsp in my Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx and installed ltsp-server-standalone. Then I set up ltsp-client by using
1 | sudo ltsp-build-client |
and despite of getting no error messages during installing and configuring, I got this error:
1 | error: LTSP client installation ended abnormally |
and it stopped. I searched around and found the solution here.
The solution was to use the following set of commands instead of sudo ltsp-build-client
1 2 3 | sudo -s su - ltsp-build-client |
This is probably a bug and hope it is fixed in the newer release.
