mogilefsd cannot see mogstored's running

[j.ignacio.leon at gmail.com]

More questions in my pursuit of a mogilefs implementation:
Back to some basics---
Are the current public CVS  versions of perlbal, server and api stable
for production, or should I stick with the tar.gz distros that are
linked from the website?

Does anyone have this running on RedHat Enterprise and/or derivatives?

I can browse http://192.168.5.141:7500/devN no problem... 200 - OK

Since reverting to an older mogstored and mogilefsd (linked from
website mogile-server-1.00)
I no longer get 404 errors in mogilefsd, it is still broken though.
Thanks to Justin's debug suggestions and more tinkering I have more
info about the problem:

mogtool inject with debug produces this error on mogstored:
---
system error: Unable to create file (error = Invalid argument, path =
/var/mogdata//dev2/0/000/000, file = 0000000087.fid, fd = -1 (Error
obtaining link info: No such file or directory))
 ----
> > $ curl -v -T /etc/motd http://192.168.5.141:7500/dev2/0/000/000/0000000078.fid
Results in 
the same!
---
system error: Unable to create file (error = Invalid argument, path =
/var/mogdata//dev2/0/000/000, file = 0000000078.fid, fd = -1 (Error
obtaining link info: No such file or directory))
---
curl reports a 500 Internal server error, unable to create file.

Note the *double forward slash after mogdata*.  I checked everywhere
and I cannot find the extraneous trailing slash in any of my paths.
Maybe the problem is the perl function that is deriving the paths?
