Re: RPM build errors: Could not generate output filename for package xxx: unknown tag

I was able to build the spec you sent me without any problem.

[me@boxen ~]$ rpmbuild -ba rpm.spec
Processing files: Product-3.2.2-1.i386
Checking for unpackaged file
(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /home/xaeth/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/Product-3.2.2-1.i386

Wrote: /home/me/rpmbuild/SRPMS/Product-3.2.2-1.src.rpm
Wrote: /home/me/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386/Product-3.2.2-1.i386.rpm

+ cd /home/xaeth/rpmbuild/BUILD
+ /bin/rm -rf /home/me/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/Product-3.2.2-1.i386
+ exit 0

I'd try just re-typing the first few lines of the file fresh and seeing if
that helps, because whatever you cleaned out to send it to the list seems
to have included your issue.

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the reply. I've attached the specs file but have had to scrub it
of any proprietary details. Hopefully this is of some assistance. If there
is more detail needed in the file to diagnose the problem let me know.

I also ran it through dos2unix and the same error occurred.

Thanks,
John

The spec file would be great for us to diagnose, but i'd verify that the

spec is unix formatted.

Subject : RPM build errors: Could not generate output filename for package

xxx:  unknown tag


Hi all,


I am having some difficulty generating an RPM file for a project that I am

working on. I get the following error:


RPM build errors:

    Could not generate output filename for package xxx: unknown tag


when I run rpmbuild. The "tag" it seems to be referring to is the "Name:

xxx" tag in my specs file. What does this error mean? Is this a file

permissions problem? What additional information do you need to work this

out?


Thanks,

John
