Summary: Mozilla 1.3 fails (hangs) during post-install
Description:
Mozilla 1.3 sucessfully compiles, installs, and creates the
compile and install logs but never goes on to create the cache. It hangs
at the "Creating ...install/mozilla-1.3"
output line for as long as I'll let it (hours). When I finally kill it,
the following output is produced:
Creating /var/log/lunar/compile/mozilla-1.3.bz2
Creating /var/log/lunar/install/mozilla-1.3
//sbin/lin: line 960: 22505 Terminated (
CACHE="/tmp/$MODULE-$VERSION-$BUILD.tar";
CACHE_BZ="$INSTALL_CACHE/$MODULE-$VERSION-$BUILD.tar.bz2";
C_LOG_BZ="$COMPILE_LOGS/$MODULE-$VERSION.bz2";
TMP_LOG="/tmp/$MODULE-$VERSION";
INST_LOG="$INSTALL_LOGS/$MODULE-$VERSION";
MD5_LOG="$MD5SUM_LOGS/$MODULE-$VERSION"; IW_LOG="/tmp/$MODULE.iw"; rm -f
$CACHE; rm -f $INST_LOG; touch $INST_LOG; rm -f $TMP_LOG; rm -f $MD5_LOG;

! Problem detected during "boost" !

Mozilla 1.3 is no longer in moonbase it has been updated to 1.3.1, I have
tested mozilla builds over and over again on 3 diffrent machines over the
last day or so and all worked with no hitches glitches. If you are haing
this problem I would say something is wrong here with your box, possibly
hardware related, bad memory, bad power supply. I would try the updated
module before posting again to see if it works

Sorry to say but it looks like 1.3.1 is doing the exact same thing
as 1.3. I just finished linning 1.3.1, with '-c -r ' options, and
according to ps, I'm using it now. But, the install window is just
sitting there, doing nothing for the past half hour, after displaying
the 'Creating /var/log/lunar/install/mozilla-1.3.1' entry. Lunar has,
in fact, created all 3 logs, to wit:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 214825 May 10 18:44
compile/mozilla-1.3.1.bz2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1222799 May 10 18:46
install/mozilla-1.3.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 96021 May 10 18:46
md5sum/mozilla-1.3.1
but does not continue on to create the cache and write to the activity
log.
The only entry in the activity log will be a "failed during boos" entry
when
I get tired of seeing the process not doing anything, and kill it.
Here are the prior activity log enties for mozilla 1.3 on this computer.
Note that this problem showed up AFTER your recent Lunar bug fix release.
Did something in lin, line 960, change in or after your bug-fix release?
20030412-15:35:43 lin mozilla 1.3 success
20030503-22:18:12 lrm mozilla 1.3 success
20030504-02:59:46 lin mozilla 1.3 failed Due to build
errors during boost
20030504-12:21:48 lin mozilla 1.3 failed Due to build
errors during boost
The same is true on my second computer. I wonder if I could manually
edit
the activity log to make Lunar think the installation suceeded? I
wouldn't
have the cache, but could tar up the src directory. I moght try that on
my other computer come Monday.
Sorry to be such a pest. I like Lunar and I appreciate your taking time
to
look into this.

what are the specs on your computer?

check out disc space on /tmp, /var/spool/lunar, I suspect a disc space
issue to be the cause... please confirm
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

try with the cache/archive feature OFF to confirm that the problem is in
the achive() code

This has happened on both of my computers, which are similar but not
identical
home brew machines.
Currently, both use mid-tower ATX cases w/ 250 watt switching power
supply,
ECS K7AMA motherboard, 512 MB PC133 Memory, 40 GB IBM harddrives, lucent
lt winmodems, CD burners and USB wheel mice. Both have NVIDIA GeForce2
MX
video cards (one is a straight MX the other an MX 400). One has an ATHLON
XP1800 cpu, the other a DURON 1200 cpu. Next week they'll be different.
My installation on both machines is similar - a working 4 GB Lunar
partition
mounted on /, with /var/spool/lunar, /var/cache/lunar, /usr/src, and my
home
directories as symbolic links to similar directories on a mounted 20 GB
partition. I do not have the compiler cache turned on - I tried it
initially
but it was eating up all the disk space. There is currently about 1.75
GB
free space on / and lots of room on the common partition.
Under the Options/Features menu, I have selected Archive, Autofix, Color,
Gargage, Preserve, Sustain, Voueur, and Reap. I will try compiling with
the Archive option OFF.
I have used GCC3 from the beginning. Under optimizations, I have
selected
Faster, Athlon XP, NO speed optimizations, NO extra features, x387 fp
math,
Strip, NO addons, 1 cpu, default stack.
I hope this helps. Thanks.
