[Bricolage-General] install problem on redhat
Sorry to post this again ... I have now re-built the server from scratch,
but am still getting the same install problem (see below). I have a bit more
info this time so hopefully someone can help ...

I am using:
Red Hat Linux 8.0
postgresql 7.3.2
apache 1.3.27
mod_perl 1.27
bricolage 1.4.6

Red Hat has just been installed.
mod_perl, apache and postgresql have been built from source, as per the
instuctions in Bric::Admin Revision 1.73.2.16

the bricolage "make" works fine, but during "make install" I get the
following error just after it has built the database:

<snip>
Finishing database...
Done.
perl inst/conf.pl INSTALL `perl -ne '/VERSION.*?([\d\.]+)/ and print $1 and
exit' < lib/Bric.pm`


==> Creating Bricolage Conf Files <==

Reading conf/bricolage.conf...

Unable to set bricolage.conf variable APACHE_BIN to
"/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd".
############################################################################

make: *** [conf] Error 1
<snip>

I noticed three unsual things during the earlier stages of "make install":

1: Apache::Request (libapreq-1.1) failed all its tests during automatic
install.
I tried building it manually as per the instuctions - it still failed all
the tests during "make test", but "make install" seemed to work anyway. Is
this bad news?

2: HTML::Template (HTML-Template-2.6) also failed during automatic install,
apparently due to an error in the test script:
<snip>
HTML::Template->new() : Unknown or unmatched TMPL construct at
/fake/path/for/non/file/template : line 7. at blib/lib/HTML/Template.pm line
2230.
make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255
<snip>
As before, building it manually worked, even though "make test" did not
complete properly.

3: I noticed the following error flash by during "make install":
<snip>
Manifying blib/man3/Bric::Util::Attribute::Formatting.3pm
Manifying blib/man3/Bric::Util::Coll.3pm
*** ERROR: unterminated C<...> at line 386 in file Bric/Util/Coll.pm
Manifying blib/man3/Bric::Biz::OutputChannel.3pm
Manifying blib/man3/Bric::Biz::Contact.3pm
<snip>
I have no idea what it all means.

mod_perl appears to be correctly statically compiled into apache, as shown
by the following:
<snip>
/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -l
Compiled-in modules:
http_core.c
mod_env.c
mod_log_config.c
mod_mime.c
mod_negotiation.c
mod_status.c
mod_include.c
mod_autoindex.c
mod_dir.c
mod_cgi.c
mod_asis.c
mod_imap.c
mod_actions.c
mod_userdir.c
mod_alias.c
mod_rewrite.c
mod_access.c
mod_auth.c
mod_setenvif.c
mod_perl.c
suexec: disabled; invalid wrapper /usr/local/apache/bin/suexec
<snip>

I can send the bricolage.conf files to you on request, but I won't send them
to the whole group because this email is already quite long ...

BTW, I work for a development charity in the UK who are evaluating various
commercial and open-source CMS systems at the moment ... if you can help me
out, you might end up saving us a lot of money ...

I've replied to Ian directly, but wanted to follow up with the list. It
looks like this might be a problem with RedHat 8. See this bug report:

http://bugzilla.bricolage.cc/show_bug.cgi?id=324

Anyway, if this indeed is the problem, it looks like it won't be
resolved until someone has the tuits to port Bricolage on RedHat 8, or
until RedHat fixes the issue themselves.

Regards,

David

OK, so it doesn't seem to work on Red Hat 8. Trust me to pick the dodgy
distribution : )

Can anyone recommend an easy-to-get-hold-of distribution that will run
bricolage? e.g. Suse 8.1 seems to be in all the shops at the moment -
can anyone confirm that it works ok?

Cheers
Ian

Redhat 7.3 works great, although you should read the README.Redhat for
specific instructions.

To my knowledge Bricolage has been tested on Redhat 7.3, Debian 3.0, Mac
OSX and FreeBSD. I don't have any reason to think it wouldn't work on
Suse but you might have a few minor issues to deal with.

Note that the latest entry in the bug for this issue says that setting
the LANG environment variable allows Bricolage to work on RH 8.

http://bugzilla.bricolage.cc/show_bug.cgi?id=324

Can anyone comment on whether it has to be set to "en_US" or can be set
to another value (esp. if you're using a different locale)?

Thanks,

David
