[opensuse-factory] ipconfig didn't works when called from zypper
Hi to all, Any ideas why a command like ifconfig works when invoked from a %post hook when package is installed via rpm -Uvh but not when same package is installed via zypper from an external repository ? %post IP_LOC=`/sbin/ifconfig | grep "inet adr" | grep -v 127.0.0.1 | awk -F: '{print $2}' | awk '{print $1}' | awk -F. '{print $1"."$2}'` echo $IP_LOC It will return blank if package is installed from zypper (zypper install) and your 2 first digits if installed via rpm -Uvh Thanks for your help / advices -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

If I execute the above command as normal user, IP_LOC is empty as well. Change spelling "inet adr" like "inet addr", does that help? Strange that it worked in one case - perhaps you have in one case LANG set and not in the other? Just compare: LANG=C IP_LOC=`/sbin/ifconfig | grep "inet addr" | grep -v 127.0.0.1 | awk -F: '{print $2}' | awk '{print $1}' | awk -F.

Thanks for your help / advices
Why are you doing such a thing? What do you expect to happen if there are multiple interfaces? What if no interface has a IPv4 address? address is written with two 'd'. If there are any further differences probably are because one of them sets the locale to C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

For an in-house package for our infra-structure, I try to determine site location from ip. Each site has its own x.y IP -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
BTW, Andreas was correct, problem was related to LANG. Thanks for it ! :) 2012/7/17 Henri Gomez <henri.gomez@gmail.com>:
