New subject: [suse-autoinstall] post-script problem

9 Oct 2002


      Hallo,
have a look into the directory '/var/adm/autoinstall'!
It should contain three subdirs. One is log, an other is scripts.
If the file postinstall.sh exists inside the scrits directory, the part <post-scrips> is interpreted. Afterwards have a look at the logfiles, to find out what is wrong.
Regards

Subject: [suse-autoinstall] post-script problem
Anas,
I've been using autoinstall with PXE to install SuSE 8.0 on machines in
our test lab for a month or so. Everything was working great.
Recently someone asked me to add another open-source package to the
install (STAF, a test framework) and I thought the <post-scripts> tag
would be a good place to do it. So I've been trying to test
<post-scripts> by adding the following stanza to my xml script.
....
<post-scripts config:type="list" >
  <script>
   <filename>postinstall.sh</filename>
   <interpreter>shell</interpreter>
   <source>
<![CDATA[
#!/bin/sh
touch /tmp/test.txt
]]>
   </source>
  </script>
 </post-scripts>
....
Nothing happens. The file isn't created and I haven't found anything in
the logs to show a failure.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff Martin
