Hello jck,

        I don't know what the proper permissions are, however

Subject: Problems with installing to /etc and /var


I am running freeradius-1.0.4 from source, on SLES 9.0.  I want to install
freeradius so that it uses /etc and /var, and not /usr/local/etc and /usr/local/var.

If I do:

/usr/local/src/freeradius-1.0.4 # make clean && make distclean

/usr/local/src/freeradius-1.0.4 # ./configure --disable-shared --without-rlm_x99_token --prefix=/ --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc --exec-prefix=/ --bindir=/usr/local --sbin=/usr/local --libexec=/usr/local --datadir=/usr/local --libdir=/usr/local --includedir=/usr/local --oldincludedir=/usr/local --infodir=/usr/local --mandir=/usr/local && make

Why do I receive this error message:

/usr/local/src/freeradius-1.0.4 # src/main/radiusd
Fri Jul 8 15:49:43 2005 : Info: Starting - reading configuration files ... radiusd: Couldn't open /usr/local/var/log/radius/radius.log for logging: Permission denied
 (rlm_exec: Wait=yes but no output defined. Did you mean output=none?)
It looks like to me you have to chmod 644 /usr/local/var/log/radius/ <- this dir then also make sure it is creating the proper log file -> radius.log Maybe one of these othere gurus know better what to tell you .... I ran into that problem as well a week ago I think.


There should be no reference to:

Couldn't open /usr/local/var/log/radius/radius.log

Full logs of configure and make are viewable at:
http://www.southwestern.edu/~johnk/freeradius_build_logs.txt

Additionaly, why isn't there a Makefile method for deinstallation?

Thanks,
--johnk
