I've been having issues getting my packages to install the init scripts. I am always left with a build failure stating:

+ /usr/bin/install -D -m755 init/bongo.init.fc4 -D /var/tmp/build-root-bongo/etc/init.d/bongo

/usr/bin/install: cannot stat `init/bongo.init.fc4': No such file or directory

Looks like your file is missing from the BUILD/<your-package> directory: the 1st thing rpmbuild does during the install phase is to go there:

Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.23204 + umask 022 + cd /home/derbeyn/rpmbuild/BUILD + cd libtune-0.12

So (unless you did some 'cd xxx' before trying to install your init script), check that init/bongo.init.fc4 has been correctly generated in the BUILD directory.

Hope this helps!

It looks like it moves from $RPM_BUILD_ROOT into /var/tmp/<package>, so I inserted a cd $RPM_BUILD_ROOT prior to trying to install the init script but still the same answer :( I think my %install isn't actually correct, but I'm still learning: %install mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/etc/init.d make DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT install cd $RPM_BUILD_ROOT #find . -type d -fprint $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.dirs #find . -type f -fprint $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.files.tmp #sed '/\/man\//s/$/.gz/g' $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.files.tmp > $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.files #find . -type l -fprint $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.libs #sed '1,2d;s,^\.,\%attr(-\,root\,root) \%dir ,' $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.dirs > $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name} #sed 's,^\.,\%attr(-\,root\,root) ,' $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.files >> $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name} #sed 's,^\.,\%attr(-\,root\,root) ,' $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name}.libs >> $RPM_BUILD_DIR/file.list.%{name} %if 0%{?suse_version} #cd /usr/src/packages/BUILD/%{name}-%{version} %{__install} -D -m755 init/bongo.init.suse10 -D $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_sysconfdir}/init.d/bongo %endif %if 0%{?fedora_version} #cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/%{name}-%{version} %{__install} -D -m755 init/bongo.init.fc4 -D $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_sysconfdir}/init.d/bongo %endif %if 0%{?mandriva_version} #cd /usr/src/rpm/BUILD/%{name}-%{version} %{__install} -D -m755 init/bongo.init.fc4 -D $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_sysconfdir}/init.d/bongo %endif Many thanks for the help, Andy -- Andrew Wafaa Business Tel: +44 (0)7919 522451 Personal Tel: +44 (0)7974 074546 e-Mail: andrew@forcev.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I think this is the thing u did wrong: the BuildRoot is the location where everything is installed before the package is actually built. so IMHO you shouldn't go there before your install. 1) the sources are uncomprssed into the BUILD/<your-package> 2) %build is done there 3) %install is done there too, with target directory = $RPM_BUILD_ROOT (which is /var/tmp/your-package> 4) %files is done relatively to $RPM_BUILD_ROOT with target drectory = RPM/<your-platform> Regards, Nadia --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

BTW, there's a document (http://www.gurulabs.com/GURULABS-RPM-LAB/GURULABS-RPM-GUIDE-v1.0.PDF) that contains quite an interesting scheme (page # 18) about the directories involved in the rpm building process.
