Not sure what's the problem.  Just some info and

- Somehow NLSR has difficulty getting connected with NFD.  It needs to send Interest and receive Data through that face.  If I understand correctly, they use UNIX socket to connect by default (and there's a default file name corresponding to the UNIX socket in the NFD configuration).

- Where did you download NLSR?  The GitHub version https://github.com/named-data/NLSR  is the latest.  Were there any warnings or problems during the compile and installation?

I just successfully compile and install ndn-cxx, NFD and NLSR on Banana Pro (design and produced by LeMaker - http://www.lemaker.org/).

I can run NFD as usual and create face and register prefix using nfdc. After that i run several test using ndn-tlv-ping and ndn-traffic and everything is run smoothly.

The problem is, when i run NLSR, it will simply throw error message "ERROR: error while connecting to the forwarder" even though NFD is running. In nlsr log file it is just simply throw the same error message "ERROR: error while connecting to the forwarder". Something like below


20150413175010040 DEBUG: [HelloProtocol] Scheduling HELLO Interests in 10 seconds

Seems like it will crash once NLSR start to setup Hello protocol schedule. So, because of lack of details in NLSR log message i tried strace to run NLSR and the output from strace are something like this

I'm using the same NFD and NLSR configuration setup that i successfully run on my ubuntu desktop. Is that related to libboost_random (boost library version is 1.49) or probably because Banana Pro is not using real hardware clock? I'm just clueless.
