Installing Arla

[Mahir Aydin]

When I try startarla, it says nothing, and does not give me a command line
prompt either.  Assuming that is how it is supposed to be, when I try klog,
the same thing happens and I cannot do anything.  My ThisCell and
CellServDB files are correct and I can ping the servers.  What is the
problem????

This seems to be becoming a FAQ.  I asked essentially the same question
last month.  The answer, which worked for me, was: don't bother with
'arlad -t'.  Just run bin/startarla.
