Kevin,

There is an environment created when you do /etc/netnmrc that the programs run in. Finding the right libraries is part of that. If you do the command 'ovstart ovtopmd', it is actually telling ovspmd to start ovtopmd. However, if ovspmd was not started the right way, it will not have the proper environment to pass onto ovtopmd. ovtopmd will die with the message that you see

Let's try to fix this by doing:

ovstop (this should stop all the daemons)

/etc/netnmrc (this should start all the daemons with the right environment )
