"Bad exit status from" error in rpm build

Hi,

Thanks for your quick reply. I am using QNX RTOS for building rpm from this spec file.

I just have 3 txt file and spect file. Here is spect file content. 3 txt file just conatins some information story. I am logged - in as "root". It is requirment. I compiled, build and installed rpm my own on QNX.

I copy pasted that 3 text files in /opt/sys/src/rpm/SOURCES and spec file in /opt/sys/src/rpm/SPECS folder and then tried to execute spec file from /opt/sys/src/rpm/SPECS .

Now i am getting following errors

# rpm -ba MyrpmTest2.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /opt/sys/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.13046
+ umask 022
+ cd /opt/sys/src/rpm/BUILD
+ cd /opt/sys/src/rpm/BUILD
+ rm -rf story-1.0
+ /bin/mkdir -p story-1.0
+ cd story-1.0
+ cp /opt/sys/src/rpm/SOURCES/Prog.txt .
+ cp /opt/sys/src/rpm/SOURCES/Oste.txt .
+ cp /opt/sys/src/rpm/SOURCES/Zaub.txt .
+
: cannot execute - No such file or directory

RPM build errors:
  Bad exit status from /opt/sys/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.13046 (%prep)

Please help me to resolve this errors.
Thanks in advance.

I think you got to interchange this.
Current:
install -m 0640 Prog.txt $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/opt/%{name}/
install -m 0640 Oste.txt $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/opt/%{name}/
install -m 0640 Zaub.txt $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/opt/%{name}/

Change:
install -m 0640  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/opt/%{name}/Prog.txt
install -m 0640  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/opt/%{name}/Oste.txt
install -m 0640  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/opt/%{name}/Zaub.txt

Hi,

Any update Experts.... I am desperately waiting for reply(solution).
 

Thanks in advance.  

Could you please state what distro is it ? and could you also try to run the command in
parts so that we know where is it breaking.

Try running #rpm -bp <filename>.spec first and if it returns an error we know in what
section the error is.

Hi,

I did changes in spec file.

I replaced %{name} and with Story. Please let me know if it is correct.

I have attached spec file with MyrpmTest5.spec.txt file name in attachment.

Now I am getting error in %install section. Last time I was getting error in %prep section. I have attached error message file in attachment.

Also I have attached log file with rpm-tmp.22415.txt" file name.

Please help me to resolve this issue. I think we are close to solution just final push is required now. Waiting for your reply desperately.

Thanks you very much for your valuable input.

hi,

one more information. files are getting copied to during %install section

thanks and waiting for your reply experts
