<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hello all,<BR>
<BR>
I have installed ser in Ubuntu Karmic by means of Synaptic without any problems or errors during the installation.<BR>
But before starting to configure the ser.cfg, I decided firstly to try the configuration by default and I got this error (I only uncommented the "log_stderror=yes"):<BR>
<BR>

It seems that it starts ok but suddenly finds an error and stops.<BR>
However if I run:<BR>

It only complains about the ser.pid file.<BR>
<BR>
I am a little bit confused. Where is the problem?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks in advance,<BR>
