Continuum-buildagent Start/Stop Script Cannot Find Binaries on Solaris
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CONTINUUM-2383
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-2383
Project: Continuum
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Distributed Builds
Affects Versions: 1.3.4
Environment: Solaris 9 and 10
Reporter: George Snyder
Priority: Minor
On Solaris 9 and 10, if the user's PATH has /usr/ucb ahead of /bin, then the
continuum-buildagent script fails:
> continuum-buildagent start
Unable to locate any of the following binaries:
/opt/continuum/apache-continuum-buildagent-1.3.4/bin/./wrapper-SOS-swrc-32
/opt/continuum/apache-continuum-buildagent-1.3.4/bin/./wrapper-SOS-swrc-64
/opt/continuum/apache-continuum-buildagent-1.3.4/bin/./wrapper
The problem is in lines such as:
DIST_OS=`uname -s | tr [:upper:] [:lower:] | tr -d [:blank:]`
DIST_ARCH=`uname -m | tr [:upper:] [:lower:] | tr -d [:blank:]`
/usr/ucb/tr does not understand the pattern keywords, and mangles the OS and
architecture names.
Recommendation: Use /bin/tr explicitly. (There is already code to decide which
'ps' to use; perhaps it could be adapted.)
Workaround: The user can invoke the script with a modified path, e.g.:
> env PATH="/bin:$PATH" continuum-buildagent start
