This is my ser.config frament:
<SNIP>
blah
debug=9
fork=no
log_stderror=yes
<SNIP>
On this SuSE 9.2 machine, /var/log/messages tells me nothing. On
another SuSE 9.2 machine, /var/log/messages works by erroring out in
parsing out the "blah" text, with the following:
Dec 28 20:48:31 ace ser: parse error (9,1-6): syntax error
Dec 28 20:48:31 ace ser: parse error (10,6-7): unknown config variable
Dec 28 20:48:31 ace ser: parse error (10,7-8):
So I still can't get the problem system to have SER log properly to tell
me what the problem is. I'm still open to suggestions. I'm thinking I
will have to completely reload SuSE 9.2 on a fresh install. The only
difference between this one is it was updated from SuSE Pro 9.1.
Thanks for your help.

Jiri,
I can't get the log output to work properly. I would give it to you if I saw
anything. Do you see what is missing from below?
When I use the same directives in ser.cfg on another SuSE 9.2 box, I get debug output - I
know what it's supposed to look like. On this one, it just hangs apparently with no
output to STDOUT.
there is no output to stdout. if log_stderr is set to true (which is not
the case in the config fragment you posted), all gets dumped to syslog
(typically /var/log/daemon or /var/log/messages depending on your
syslog configuration). If set to true, it is dumped to std_error.

I'm willing to hear any suggestions. Strace?
Any help very appreciated.

Sure it still hangs but the log output lets us

I have no opinion on what it may be until I see it.

Jiri,
Thanks for the advice. However, I've already tried this - I meant to have already
told you this. I've toggled between debug 7 and debug 3, as well as fork yes and no,
and log_stderror yes and no. I've also put random comments in the file to see if ser
complains. Doesn't make a difference at all. Still hangs. Your help is much
appreciated. What do you think I should try next in order to identify where the problem
is? Here is a clip from the top of ser.cfg, from what I last tried.
<SNIP>
# ----------- global configuration parameters ------------------------
blah blah Please parse this file
#debug=3 # debug level (cmd line: -dddddddddd)
#fork=yes
#log_stderror=no # (cmd line: -E)
debug=7
#debug=3
fork=no
log_stderror=no
blah
</SNIP>
Try increasing log level and sending us the log output -- we may then
perhaps see where it is hanging. If that does not get us any further,
phase II will be strace I guess.
