Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2007 22:05:59 +0200

Package: aolserver4
Version: 4.5.0-9
Severity: serious

Hi,

When trying to build aolserver4-nsopenssl and aolserver4-nsimap on
various arches, the buildds get the following error:
Setting up aolserver4 (4.5.0-9) ...
Starting web server: aolserver4/usr/sbin/aolserver4-nsd: error while
loading shared libraries: libnsd.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
 failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript aolserver4, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing aolserver4 (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Subject: More data on the problem

Date: Sat, 01 Sep 2007 13:27:46 +0000 (GMT)

The failing arches are mips, mipsel, alpha and sparc.

At first I thought it was something related to aolserver4's version, but after checking the versions for failing and non-failing arches, that doesn't seem to be the problem:

Failing arches:
mips: (4.5.0-4)
mipsel: (4.5.0-4)
sparc: (4.5.0-7)
alpha: (4.5.0-9)

Non-failing arches:
s390: (4.5.0-4)
m68k: (4.5.0-7)
powerpc: (4.5.0-8)
i386: (4.5.0-9)
ia64: (4.5.0-9)
arm: (4.5.0-10)
hppa: (4.5.0-10)

It also doesn't look like it's a problem of tcl versions.  Similar clashes occur.

The /usr/lib/aolserver4/lib/libnsd.so is correctly placed both in failing and non-failing arches, so, if for some reason it's not being found, it would look like a path problem.

The file being executed when "Starting web server" is /usr/sbin/aolserver4-nsd, running ldd for it in my i386 returns (among other things):
        libnsd.so => /usr/lib/aolserver4/lib/libnsd.so (0xb7e66000)

My guess is that the path is broken for the failing arches.  But I'm not sure how to check this, nor how to fix it.

Love,
Marga

I already asked to check the ld.so.conf configuration on autobuilders
boxes. I suspect some of them simply does not include /etc/ld.so.conf.d files,
so the failure.

Hi,

Since it seems unlikely that for building aolserver4 extensions a
*running* aolserver4 instance is needed, it would better if aolserver4
would *not* fail to install when it fails to startup it's daemon.

This is also benefical for endusers, as they will not need to
re-run dpkg after fixing their ld.so.conf...

cheers,
Riku

"rm -rf" only sounds scary if you don't have backups

Indeedi, it should be possible to build and install aolserver without
that, I'll prepare a new source package which splits the daemon and
the internal libraries. Modules would depend on the libs but not
on the daemon. Thanks for hinting me about that...
