Well, after bumbling through the source code with gdb and being rather
clueless, I did spot various clientupdate arguments including the one
you have listed. So having tried that and this:
./clientupdate --update=sunos8.v1.1
and this:
./.update.myHost01.1153492317.tmp --update=sunos8.v1.1
It works rather nicely, but of course we would like to see it work
automatically as designed, but it does save a whole bunch of scp'ing in
the interim. It may also have a PATH bug:
myHost:/var/home/nmsbb/client/tmp> ./.update.myHost01.1153490198.tmp
--update=sunos8.v1
Cannot chdir to BBHOME
It works after you export BBHOME, but that is not a problem on my
original host where I still experience the problem. In summary,
clientupdate creates the tmp file which is the clientupdate binary and
then fails. Since clientupdate works manually, if we could figure out
where the disconnect is the problem would be solved, hopefully.
Adam, did you try copying the tar file over manually and extracting it
as your hobbit client user to make sure it all goes as planned?

It should be working in the current release (the original RC from
July 12).
We read the man page and configured it, hoping it would work.
Obviously, it would save us a lot of time. Here is what we get
on
the client:
tail -f hobbitclient.log
2006-07-19 13:30:59 connect to bbd failed - Connection refused
2006-07-19 13:30:59 Whoops ! bb failed to send message -
Connection
failed
Cannot fetch new client tarfile
That is odd. Why can't it connect to the Hobbit server? It uses
the
same
method of connecting for the client update as it does when
sending
in
the client data.
Any signs in the server logs of hobbitd crashing? If yes, do
apply
the
current "allinone.patch" to the server and retry this.
No signs of the server crashing. The server is fine and while
clientupdate is not working the client is fine otherwise all
statuses
up to date.
I am currently using the latest snapshot for client and server.
What does your client-local.cfg file have for this client, and
what
files do you have in the ~hobbit/download/ directory?
It looks something like this:
client-local.cfg:
[clienthost]
clientversion:sunos8.v1
file:/opt/app/apache/logs/access.log
log:/opt/app/apache/logs/error.log:10240
log:/var/adm/messages:10240
ignore srsxfer
[hobbit at hobbit download]$ ls
sunos8.v1.tar
[hobbit at hobbit download]$ pwd
/home/hobbit/server/download
Any chance we can get some feedback on this? Congrats Adam, you are
getting further than we have. Regardless, the tmp files it creates
without the 'w'rite attribute are a nuisance:
