hello oliver

user-management (especially set passwords via cli passwd command) requires perl-module Expect.pm. Unfortionally this module has a binary component Tty.so which is different on Nexenta and Opensolaris.

On each login, napp-it tries to copy the right os-version of this file to/usr/lib/cgi-bin/napp-it/CGI/auto/IO/Tty/Tty.so
the file is missing, so i suppose, napp-it could not copy the file due to permission problems.

did you set permissions of napp-it folder to 777 recursively?
napp-it will adjust permissions to a more secure setting automatically on each login.

best regards

Hello Günther,

yes I did

root@datengrab:/usr/lib/cgi-bin# chmod -R 777 napp-it/
root@datengrab:/usr/lib/cgi-bin# ls -la
total 30
drwxr-xr-x  3 root     root   3 Aug 30 02:01 .
drwxr-xr-x 84 root     root 894 Aug 30 00:02 ..
drwxrwxrwx  6 www-data root  10 Sep  3 21:47 napp-it

but when I login to napp-it the permissions change to 755 immediately and the folder and including folders/files are set to the new permissions recursively:

root@datengrab:/usr/lib/cgi-bin# ls -la
total 30
drwxr-xr-x  3 root     root   3 Aug 30 02:01 .
drwxr-xr-x 84 root     root 894 Aug 30 00:02 ..
drwxr-xr-x  6 www-data root  10 Sep  3 21:54 napp-it

And of course again I get the same error message.

Gruß, Oliver

I have the same issue. I verified permissions and that napp-it is copying the Tty.so.nex file over to Tty.so. I just think the included Tty.so isn't right for NCP3.

I swapped out the IO directories (napp-it/CGI/IO and napp-it/CGI/auto/IO) with the ones from the libio-pty-perl package in the repo and that seemed to work well.

hello apnar

i will check the included Tty.so next week (on my test-install, its running,
see: http://napp-it.org/pop_en.html)

(i'm on holiday in france at the moment)

FYI I'm getting the same issue. If I check /usr/lib/cgi-bin/napp-it/CGI/auto/IO/Tty:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 www-data www-data     0 Jul  7 11:16 Tty.bs
-rwxr-xr-x 1 www-data www-data 42084 Sep  6 13:24 Tty.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 www-data www-data 42084 Jul  7 11:16 Tty.so.nex
-rwxr-xr-x 1 www-data www-data 29580 Jul 13 08:32 Tty.so.osol

Assuming Tty.so.nex is the right one to copy over, it looks like the right version is there.

I copied over Tty.so.osol to Tty.so, just in case, but seems that napp-it copies over the right version again when I go to the user tab, since when I check again, it's the .nex version that is copied over to Tty.so!

Hope this helps.

hi all

i made a fresh install (vmware fusion) of NexentaCore3 rc3/final and did the basic installation steps from my howto:

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install mc (midnight commander to edit files)
apt-get install apache2 
edit /etc/sudoers to allow root access for napp-it
edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config to allow ssh login for root and filetransfers via winscp
restart

copied folder napp-it via winscp (to auto-translate line-breaks from dos to unix) to /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
set permission of napp-it folder to 777 recursively 
start napp-it via http://serverip/cgi-bin/napp-it/admin.pl

doing this, i could not reproduce your error. have you done something another way (especially the file transfer of the napp-it folder)

best regards

Just to confirm that the right files are there (when I unzip'ed, I used -aa as per the document):

/usr/lib/cgi-bin/napp-it/CGI/auto/IO/Tty# cksum *
4294967295 0 Tty.bs
1528037135 42084 Tty.so
1528037135 42084 Tty.so.nex
3497531692 29580 Tty.so.osol

but if I unzip with just -a, I get it

/usr/lib/cgi-bin/napp-it/CGI/auto/IO/Tty# cksum *
cksum *
4294967295 0 Tty.bs
4098734594 42112 Tty.so
4098734594 42112 Tty.so.nex
905482485 29596 Tty.so.osol

Note the difference in cksum and file sizes (which is what I would expect considering I'm using -aa i.e. treat all files as text)

and if I copy those files over, it works.

So you might want to update your napp-it..pdf (I'm reading the 22 July 2010 version, and it still says -aa on page 4, section 1.4.2 "All napp-it files are dos textfiles, copy them via winscp or unzip -aa...") to unzip using -a rather than -aa.

Otherwise, thanks for your great app that makes life a bit easier for me on a daily basis!

thanks for the info

i will update my manual and put a note on napp-it.org/downloads
Tty.so is the first and only binary file in napp-it.
