hi ,
 I am encountering a problem during the GNATS
Web installation.
Â
during the 5th step in the INSTALL
file.
i.e.
make test USERNAME=---
Â
it gives the error as
unexpected end of file at line 44 in Makefile.
Â
Is there any modification in the Makefile that
needs to be done,because in the Makefile when I check at line 44 it is just
after the Version script.
Awaiting your reply as soon as
possible
Â
Thanks
Â
Ajay

Hi
Can someone please tell me the purpose of "bugs.log", how long theses files stay in $GNATS_ROOT/gnats-admin/ directory, are they to be purged etc.?
Can you point me in the direction of any documentation?
Cheers

Hi
We're having problems at the moment with file creation and i would be very grateful if someone would mail me back with the answers to the below
questions. We need to have this up and running by the end of the week so it's quite urgent.
Could someone perform the following and please tell me what the result is:
ls -l /usr/lib/sendmail
What platform your using
ls -l bugs.log
I would really appreciate any feedback
Thank you
Margaret

Make sure bugs.log is 666 permissions. It's just a copy of the email
received by gnats.

Hi
I've created a problem report and when i go in and try and query it I get the following problem:
Error
Cannot create lock file
/usr/local/share/gnats/gnats-db/gnats-adm/locks/1.lock
The PR has not been changed. If this problem persists, please contact a Gnats administrator.
Can someone please tell me why this is happening?
Rgds
Margaret

All these permission problems make me ask if you did not run "make
install" as root. You must do so because it changes the ownership of
certain programs and files to gnats. Please send this output:
ls -al /usr/local/share/gnats/gnats-db/gnats-adm

You do realize that sendmail usually runs as user mail. Make sure your
bugs.log is writable by the mail user. What I did was create a separate
directory specifically for the log owned by user mail so that the log file
can be created. The down side to this was that the file was created as
owned by user mail in group mail and file permissions 600.
