Error running swupd on fresh Leopard server install



Hi there,

I have a fresh install of Leapord advanced server in a pre-production environment (my very first venture into Macworld), and everything is going swimmingly until I tried to set up Software Update Services.

There is no GUI error, but a few seconds after starting, the log says:

swupd_syncd[pid] <Error>: swupd_syncd failed with SUCatalogLoaderException: We've been foiled by the SUCatalogLoader: no local display name. Drat.\n


Later, (and I really don't think I changed anything related, but...) the errors switched to:


swupd_syncd[pid] <Error>: Unable to download upstream cataog index (was looking for http://swscan.apple.com/content/meta/mirror-config-1.plist)


I did find this post
	http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1412159&tstart=0
... in which I am told to check my file permissions.  What files?  What permissions do they need?

I will be quite surprised (and concerned) if this is actually a permissions issue -- both because it didn't work out-of-the-box and because the error message never would have led me to suspect file permissions.


Can anyone help?
