Dear all,

Just a quick question: Once a system is installed via autoyast, does it leave a log file of what was done and what failed afterwards. I had a look in /root but saw nothing obvious. Does it log on the server?

/var/log/YaST2/y2log /var/adm/autoinstall/*

Ahh. You are right. Typo. Andreas Taschner wrote:

I think you should remove the : after app200 above. Seems like a leftover from some nfs location.

Hi all, Its been a while since I addressed my autoyast server, because I had to move it to another location and set things up again. So back to post-installs: I mended some typographical errors in the directives below, and installed once more. However, yast eventually gave a nice blue screen after it had rebooted. It has these tabs: Help Back Abort Next, but not much else, and these are locked up. When I remove these portions of the directive the install process completes: <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <filename>ntp.conf.sh</filename> The current post install directive reads as this, <post-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <location>http://t2nl-app205/scripts/ntp.conf.sh</location> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <filename>ntp.conf.sh</filename> </script> ...& the contents of ntp.conf.sh on the http server reads, (it is /tmp/ntp.conf for test purposes) cat > /tmp/ntp.conf << EOF server 127.127.1.0 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift/ntp.drift logfile /var/log/ntp keys /etc/ntp.keys trustedkey 1 requestkey 1 server 10.254.26.3 iburst restrict 10.254.26.2 restrict time.versatel.com EOF chmod 640 /tmp/ntp.conf chown root:ntp /tmp/ntp.conf Uwe Gansert wrote:

all kind of scripts have to be in the <scripts> section. See the examples: http://www.suse.de/~ug/autoyast_doc/createprofile.scripts.html <post-scripts> is not under <profile> but under <scripts> which is under <profile>

PS. I found this in the y2log-1 file:

"post-scripts":[$["location":"http://t2nl-app205/scripts/ntp.conf.sh"]]

This was the only reference in the file for ntp.conf

that's okay. You have to look into y2log and not y2log-1 for post-scripts logging. Currently I have no explanation why removing "interpreter" and "filename" makes it work for you. I'd need the logs and the profile. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug listening to: "Rebellion" by Agonoize -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
