[OpenAFS] afs-newcell fail: Couldn't get CPS for AnyUser

[Xiong Jiang]

> touch /vicepa/AlwaysAttach

This did the magic! When /vicepa was empty it didn't do anything.

While the same error message shows up multiple times in FileLog:

Fri May  1 08:06:50 2009 Couldn't get CPS for AnyUser, will try again
in 30 seconds; code=3D267268.  (PRNOENT)
Fri May  1 08:07:20 2009 Couldn't get CPS for AnyUser, will try again
in 30 seconds; code=3D267275.  (PRDBBAD)

It is doing the next step now:
vos create mytv.home a root.afs -localauth

But still failed, with error (some file is missing but don't know what it i=
s):

Could not change quota, continuing...
   : No such file or directory
Failed to end the transaction on the volume root.afs 536870912
: No such file or directory
Error in vos create command.
: No such file or directory
Failed: 65280

Cell setup failed, ABORTING
