Report 1
1. created file /etc/nologin
2. Got ~dist/b1.0
3. Ran 'sh csbuild'
4. PROBLEM: lynx would not build - missing ncurses/curses.h
5. PROBLEM: no error log
- 1. ran 'cs csbuild | tee csbuild.$$'
- 2. PROBLEM : Build CSuite with internationalization support? (y/n, currently y)
- does not set 'y' for the default, would not accept return
- entered y
- 3. examined error file, checked csuite:/usr/include
- 4. ran (cd /usr/include; ln -s . ncurses)
- 5. ran 'cs csbuild | tee csbuild.$$'
6. PROBLEM : syslog.conf has the line
local5.debug;local5.crit root,sysadmin
and the lynx log record is writing to other root screens
- 1. edited /etc/syslog.conf and commented out local5
- 2. ran 'kill -SIGHUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`
7. Follow link - System Characterization
8. Follow link - unpack all needed sources
9. Follow link - build and install CSuite Programs
10. PROBLEM : edgroup complaining about the group file
- 1. investivate, no '*' in second field, junk at end of file
- 2. edited /etc/group,
- 3. ^R on 'lynxcgi:/var/csuite/lynxcgi-bin/make-cgi?install-csuite'
11. PROBLEM : bad hands on keyboard, network interrupt
- login root
- whoami == csuite
- csuite is the first line in /etc/passwd
- PROBLEM: csuite has no GID
+ SOLUTION: ensure UID for csuite admin
- cannot run 'sh csbuild', "must be root"
- can run vipw, put root first
- whoami == root
- run sh csbuild
12. PROBLEM: forgot to do site config. - I wish I was getting a screen at
a time instead of all this stuff at once.
+ SOLUTION: split build.html into multiple files
13. PROBLEM: Screen reports "Process Complete" with
make: *** [dirs] Error 1
+ SOLUTION: detect errors from make
- do not display link if error detected
14. PROBLEM: made big mistake, have multiple installs going on
Fix: kill it all
+ SOLUTION: lock install-cgi so only one process can run
