Hi, 
I am building my own sample package. I added few files and tried to build rpm package. 
Iam adding some more infn on my scripts.These scripts are really not written by me , These were working for Redhat and iam trying them on SUSE.  
 
In example.spec file its this way 
 
%prep
# nothing

%build
#cd $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/../..
#make P=%{ras_ver}
                                                              
%install                                                      
cd $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/../.. 
 
Then after executing spec file it runs %prep and %build properly and fails at %install as below.
 
 
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.51045
+ umask 022
+ cd /usr/src/packages/BUILD
+ exit 0
Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.51045
+ umask 022
+ cd /usr/src/packages/BUILD
+ exit 0
Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.51045
shell-init: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
+ umask 022
+ cd /usr/src/packages/BUILD
chdir: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent director
 
 
 
 
 
Thanks in advance, 
Sudarshan

What rpm are you trying to build?
