5 Open of @sysconfdir@/aha.dat failed! - ID: 531004

Last Update: Comment added ( fgiff )

Details:

See 531001, this might be linked to a compile problem
(but I do not think this is the case).

Using the latest CVS, I compile and run brewnix under
Cygwin. The compile succeeds, and I make install.

When I run brewnix, I get the following error:
$ brewnix
BrewNIX: Read_Styles: Open of @sysconfdir@/aha.dat
failed!

$ find /|grep aha.dat
/usr/local/etc/aha.dat

$ grep -r sysconfdir src/*
src/Makefile:sysconfdir = ${prefix}/etc
src/Makefile:CPPFLAGS = -
DSYSCONFDIR="\"@sysconfdir@\""
src/Makefile.in:sysconfdir = @sysconfdir@
Binary file src/brewnix.exe matches
Binary file src/data_io.o matches

I tried editing src/dataio.c as follows:
"fullpath" = 1
#define AHANAME "/usr/local/etc/aha.dat"

That still did not work. I also tried deleting my
existing database (which had created using the tarball
brewnix 1.02, and I thought might not be compatible).

Any help is apprecated :-)

Date: 2003-10-30 18:33 Sender: fgiff Logged In: YES user_id=457338 @sysconfdir@ is a macro used by automake, it should be expanded in the Makefile, so the problem is probably linked to the compile problem. To fix it, try editing the Makefile line CPPFLAGS = -DSYSCONFDIR="\"@sysconfdir@\"" to CPPFLAGS = -DSYSCONFDIR="\"PATH\"" where PATH is the path to aha.dat (which automake should have expanded to ${prefix}/etc) Alternatively, you can try to run configure with the option --sysconfdir=PATH where PATH is the same as above.

@sysconfdir@ is a macro used by automake, it should be
expanded in the Makefile, so the problem is probably linked
to the compile problem. To fix it, try editing the Makefile line
CPPFLAGS = -DSYSCONFDIR="\"@sysconfdir@\""
to
CPPFLAGS = -DSYSCONFDIR="\"PATH\""
where PATH is the path to aha.dat (which automake should
have expanded to ${prefix}/etc)

Alternatively, you can try to run configure with the option
--sysconfdir=PATH where PATH is the same as above.
