Thread: Not able to build kit using buildkit

I have successfully installed compute node. I am trying to add a kit for sun gride engine(sge).

I have a the tarball sge-6.0u7_1-bin-lx24-x86 as the source for sge. Following is the structure of my build.kit file

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# build.kit template

# Define your packages here by using a correct packageprofile class.
# Available types are SourcePackage(), RPMPackage(), SRPMPackage(),
# DistroPackage(), BinaryPackage()

pkg1 = SourcePackage()
pkg1.name = 'sge'
pkg1.version = '6.0'
pkg1.release = '1'
pkg1.installroot = '/opt/sge'
pkg1.filename = 'sge-6.0u7_1-bin-lx24-x86.tar.gz'

# define a default component
comp = DefaultComponent()
comp.name = 'master_sge'
comp.description = 'sge component for CentOS 5.'
comp.ngtypes = ['installer']


# Add any packages defined earlier by using the comp.addDep method
comp.addDep(pkg1)


# define a default kit
k = DefaultKit()
k.name = 'sge kit'
k.description = 'sge kit.'
k.arch = 'x86'

# Adding the component defined earlier
k.addComponent(comp)


# Add post install script. You can modify this shell script or add new ones in the
# sources directory
k.addScript('00-post-script.sh',mode='post')

# Add post uninstall script. You can modify this shell script or add new ones in the
# sources directory
k.addScript('00-postun-script.sh',mode='postun')

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i have added the tarbal in the /sources directory.

when i run the command

buildkit make kit=sge

i get the following error:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

can someone help?

Hi Abishek,

Can you tell us your build number?

You can find out on the command line:

# cat /etc/kusu-release

I am using 0.6_devel. Due to some downloading issues at my end i am not able to download the latest release.

Hi

I would recommend posting on http://www.hpccommunity.org. There will be more developers on that forum to assist you.

If I remember correctly, SGE uses aimk instead of autoconf tools. If you can build the SGE manually and have the binaries in a tar ball, you can use BinaryPackage() instead of SourcePackage().

These links might help:

Abishek,
Can you build the binary tarball as Liming suggested?

I figured out the problem. it arised due to the tarball i am using for sge. the tarball got extracted in 4 different directories.

I then integrated the 4 directories in a parent directory and generated a new tarball. So now the tarbal untars in a single directory.

I have successfully generated the iso for my sge now..

Hi abhishek

If you have a working sge kit, appreciate if you can share with the kusu community. We would be happy to put it up for download. Do include some basic readme and documentation.

Thanks!

I am sorry i cannot share that because i am not using the opensource version of SGE.. I am using the enterprise version
