RE: file added to rpm as zero bytes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I originally discovered it when I installed the RPM on a test server.  I've inspected the rpm via the following commands:

 

rpm2cpio mule-3.3.2-1.el6.x86_64.rpm | cpio -ivd ./usr/bin/*

ls -la usr/bin

 

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root     0 Apr 30 15:03 mule

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 20237 Apr 30 15:03 mule-2

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  1312 Apr 30 15:03 mule-launcher

 

Additionally, I've verified via:

 

rpm -qp --dump mule-3.3.2-1.el6.x86_64.rpm | grep ^/usr/bin

 

/usr/bin/mule 0 1367348439 e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855 0100755 root root 0 0 0 X

/usr/bin/mule-2 20237 1354821207 b30b690366e2280635e09e8f33c90bf7e823d45a71ffaf72e5c0d39476551b8a 0100755 root root 0 0 0 X

/usr/bin/mule-launcher 1312 1354821207 6103cf5f73c6d0108c7d88f6678ae873a725fe16430e210ae6a8f9ad22e3e979 0100755 root root 0 0 0 X

How do you know its a zero byte file?

Hello,

 

I've been pulling my hair out of an issue with an RPM I'm trying to build.

 

In my %install section I have the following lines consecutively:

 

    %{__cp} -a bin/%{name} ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_bindir}/%{name}

    %{__cp} -a bin/%{name} ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_bindir}/%{name}-2

 

And in the %files section I have

 

%attr(0755,root,root) %{_bindir}/*

 

The files are both added to the rpm in the correct spot, but %{_bindir}/%{name} is added as a 0 byte file, while %{_bindir}/%{name}-2 is added as the correct size.  The source file is a shell script if that has any bearing on the matter.
