One should also note that gnatsdb is created as pa= rt of the mkdb process. (This isn't very clearly stated in the "Installing= the default database) documentation.) As a result, the directory com, whe= rever you put it (I have it at /usr/local/com) should be writeable by gnats= , since mkdb is supposed to be used to create database(s) while in ~/com. I'm getting another error, however--- dezolt% ./mkdb default Copying default files from /usr/local/etc/gnats/defaults cp: cannot access /usr/local/etc/gnats/defaults/categories Can't copy file /usr/local/etc/gnats/defaults/categories to /usr/local/com/= gnatsdb/gnats-adm/categories, exiting dezolt%=20 I am going to assume, forthe moment, that can grab a copy of and adjust my = categories file from my build of gnats 3.113 and adjust to suit. In the me= antime, any suggestions on how to fix the abovementioned error would be app= reciated.
