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
