[Bug 707348] [NEW] tomcat6 doesn't configure cleanly with JAVA_OPTS having values with slashes
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: tomcat6 Dear Colleagues, during security update of tomcat6 on maverick (and the same will happen everywhere), when you have a JAVA_OPTS line with something like that JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx128m -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -Dpath.foo=/etc/foo/monitoring.properties the sed call of : tmpfile=`mktemp /tmp/tomcat6.XX` chmod 644 $tmpfile cat $TEMPLATE \ | sed s/^TOMCAT6_USER=.*$/TOMCAT6_USER=$TOMCAT6_USER/ \ | sed s/^TOMCAT6_GROUP=.*$/TOMCAT6_GROUP=$TOMCAT6_GROUP/ \ | sed s/^JAVA_OPTS=.*$/JAVA_OPTS=\$JAVA_OPTS\/ \ $tmpfile will fail because of the slashes. Those slashes are not escaped properly. Adding a line with: db_get tomcat6/javaopts JAVA_OPTS=$RET || JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx128m -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC JAVA_OPTS=`echo $JAVA_OPTS|sed -e 's#\/#\\\/#g'` helps here. Please find attached the patched maverick tomcat6 src package with postinst fixed. It needs to be done for lucid and natty and other releases too.
