hi enda,
we have paid a lot of money for the package and it is not alternate root aware.
i have changed and simplified the procedure scripts.
when i create a new zone now the only problem is the user- and groupadd in the
preinstall script.
the user and groupadd had no problem during a pkgadd to the global and a
running non-global zone.
the pkgadd failed, because there are no passwd, shadow and group files at this
time.
what is the recommended way to add users and groups with preinstall scripts in
a alternate root (lu, jumpstart, zone-install) ? i find no information in the
documentation.
preinstall script
#!/bin/sh
group=`grep audit4u ${PKG_INSTALL_ROOT}/etc/group`
if [ "$group" = "" ]; then
if [ "${PKG_INSTALL_ROOT}" = "" ]; then
groupadd -g 1922 audit4u
else
/usr/sbin/chroot ${PKG_INSTALL_ROOT} /usr/sbin/groupadd -g 1922 audit4u
fi
fi
user=`grep audit4u ${PKG_INSTALL_ROOT}/etc/passwd`
if [ "$user" = "" ]; then
if [ "${PKG_INSTALL_ROOT}" = "" ]; then
useradd -d /export/home/audit4u -m -s /usr/bin/ksh -g 1922 -u 1922 -c
"technischer User fuer Audit4U" audit4u
else
/usr/sbin/chroot ${PKG_INSTALL_ROOT} /usr/sbin/useradd -d
/export/home/audit4u -m -s /usr/bin/ksh -g 1922 -u 1922 -c "technischer User
fuer Audit4U" audit4u
fi
fi
pkgadd failed during zone creation:
*** package <audit4u-agents> failed to install with fatal errors:
grep: can't open /export/home/test03/root/etc/group
UX: groupadd: ERROR: Cannot update system files - group cannot be created.
grep: can't open /export/home/test03/root/etc/passwd
UX: /usr/sbin/useradd: ERROR: group 1922 does not exist. Choose another.
pkgadd: ERROR: preinstall script did not complete successfully

thanks for your time
Mario
