Sorry; it's Solaris 9 / SPARC.
Errno 13 is usually EACCES. What are the permissions on /dev/poll?
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Oct 13 12:38 /dev/poll -> ../devices/pseudo/poll@0:poll crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 138, 0 Apr 1 12:21 /dev/../devices/pseudo/poll@0:poll
So, to me the permissions look okay...
They look ok to me too. The poll(7d) man page says the following about EACCESS:
EACCES A process does not have permission to access the con- tent cached in /dev/poll.
I have no idea why you get it.
Have you changed uid or gid since the pike process started?
It's a fatal error because there's currently only support for one backend implementation at a time (ie there's no fallback available when the error is detected).
Yikes... is that as bad as it sounds to me?
Probably not. It just means that you have to compile with --without-devpoll.
