I'm running Slackware64-current and had trouble installing Shorewall-4.5.2.x. The corresponding Shorewall-Core-4.5.2.x installs without a problem but shorewall-4.5.2.x itself would always give me the following error - root@missi:/data/patches/shorewall-4.5.2# ./install.sh shorewallrc.slackware Perl/compiler.pl syntax OK Installing Slackware-specific configuration... Installing Shorewall Version 4.5.2 shorewall control program installed in /sbin/shorewall install: cannot stat `init.slackware.firewall': No such file or directory ERROR: Failed to install -T -o root -g root -m 0544 init.slackware.firewall /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall After a lot of digging I discovered that the shorewall-core-4.5.2.x installs an incorrect .shorewallrc file in /root. I modified it and now it installs fine - Here is the .shorewallrc file that works - # # Slackware Shorewall 4.5 rc file # BUILD=slackware HOST=slackware PREFIX=/usr #Top-level directory for shared files, libraries, etc. SHAREDIR=${PREFIX}/share #Directory for arch-neutral files. LIBEXECDIR=${PREFIX}/share #Directory for executable scripts. PERLLIBDIR=${PREFIX}/share/shorewall #Directory to install Shorewall Perl module directory CONFDIR=/etc #Directory where subsystem configurations are installed SBINDIR=/sbin #Directory where system administration programs are installed MANDIR=${PREFIX}/man #Directory where manpages are installed. INITDIR=/etc/rc.d #Directory where SysV init scripts are installed. INITSOURCE=init.slackware.shorewall.sh # THIS IS THE FIXED FILE ENTRY ------------------------------------------------------<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Look here INITFILE=rc.firewall #Name of the product's installed SysV init script AUXINITSOURCE=init.slackware.$PRODUCT #Name of the distributed file to be installed as a second SysV init script AUXINITFILE=rc.$PRODUCT #Name of the product's installed second init script SYSTEMD= #Name of the directory where .service files are installed (systems running systemd only) SYSCONFFILE= #Name of the distributed file to be installed in $SYSCONFDIR SYSCONFDIR= #Name of the directory where SysV init parameter files are installed. ANNOTATED= #If non-empty, install annotated configuration files VARDIR=/var/lib #Directory where product variable data is stored. Note the reference to "init.slackware.firewall" because it never existed. This .shorewallrc file installs Shorewall-4-5.2.x just fine. regards, Tom |
