Hello Joseph, It is possible that the bootstrap script works with the korn shell, but we have not tested it on anything else than the basic /bin/sh of the three supported platforms (Solaris, FreeBSD, Linux) and a few other unsupported ones.
'Preparing your shell environment' actually is only useful once you have sucessfully bootstrapped, but I mentioned it because it is quite useful after we solve these nasty bootstrapping problems. In any case, it seems to me that the bootstrap script is copying the files to your target directory (/cw) but not completely finishing. I think it is breaking before it can create the hierarchy, build the RPM database, change owner and group permissions, and some other neccessary things. I also think that looking at the output of either the openpkg-<V>-<R>.src.sh or openpkg-<V>-<R>.<arch>-<os>.<id>.sh will show that an error occurred sometime causing the generated script to be incomplete or somehow break. Please pick your favorite platform and send a copy of the output. I'll compare it to what I normally see when bootstrapping. Oh, and be sure to use the latest bootstrap script at: ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/openpkg-20020402-20020402.src.sh Regards, Michael -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Development Team, Application Services Cable & Wireless Deutschland GmbH On Tue, Apr 02, 2002 at 11:05:25PM +1000, Joseph Sirucka wrote: > Here is a output of what happens under solaris 8 and Linux > > root@wireless2:/root> ls /cw > CVS dot.bash_login openpkg.spec rpmmacros > README dot.bashrc patch-2.5.4.tar.gz rpmpopt > aux.prereq.sh dot.lsyncrc rc rpmrc > aux.usrgrp.sh gzip-1.3.2.tar rc.conf rpmtool > aux.wrapbin.sh lib rc.func rpmtool.8 > aux.wrapsrc.sh local.README rc.openpkg rpmtool.pod > bash-2.05a.tar.gz lsync root.README rpmx.pl > bzip2-1.0.2.tar.gz lsync.8 rpm-4.0.2.patch.bugfix rpmx.sh > curl-7.9.3.tar.gz lsync.pod rpm-4.0.2.patch.feature shtool > curl-7.9.5.tar.gz make-3.79.1.tar.gz rpm-4.0.2.patch.porting > tar-1.13.25.tar.gz > db-3.2.9.patch openpkg.boot rpm-4.0.2.patch.regen > zlib-1.1.3.tar.gz > db-3.2.9.tar.gz openpkg.pgp rpm-4.0.2.tar.gz > >> >>Particularly helpful are the paragraphs 'Bootstrapping OpenPKG from Scratch', >>'Prepare Your Shell Environment', and 'To Install OpenPKG Packages.' >> >> http://www.openpkg.org/doc/quickref/openpkg.txt > > Sorry what do you mean by preparing your shell environment. > > Can you please give me a example under korn shell > > regards > > Joseph ______________________________________________________________________ The OpenPKG Project www.openpkg.org User Communication List [EMAIL PROTECTED]
