Hi !
I'm trying to compile Cricket, but I get this error message :
server:/usr/ports/net-mgmt/cricket# make
===> cricket-1.0.5_4 uses a UID registered to another port.
*** Error code 1
Can anybody look into this problem ?
Did you remove the IGNORE line from the Makefile? It looks like
you may
have. The IGNORE line explicitly states what the problem is; you
shouldn't be able to build the port if IGNORE is set to non-null.
IGNORE= uses a UID registered to another port
The IGNORE line is why the build stopped in the first place (notice
that the messages are the same).
And the UID is:
CRICKET_USER?= wwwadm
CRICKET_UID?= 81
CRICKET_GROUP?= www
CRICKET_GID?= 80
$ grep wwwadm /usr/ports/UIDs
$ grep :8[01]: /usr/ports/UIDs
www:*:80:80:World Wide Web Owner:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin
alias:*:81:81:QMail user:/var/qmail/alias:/nonexistent
qmaild:*:82:81:QMail user:/var/qmail:/nonexistent
qmaill:*:83:81:QMail user:/var/qmail:/nonexistent
qmailp:*:84:81:QMail user:/var/qmail:/nonexistent
UID 81 is reserved for qmail, which is obviously not what the port
should be trying to use. GID 80 is used by Apache and friends,
although
if I remember right, the cricket user ends up having its default
GID set
to the same group as what Apache runs as, so CGIs and other whatnots
have the ability to access cricket-specific files.
As a workaround, you could try setting CRICKET_UID=999 in make.conf or
during make time. This UID isn't listed in ports/UIDs, but may become
so in the future.
It's possible the port won't do anything with that variable (which is
why it hasn't been fixed yet with such a simple fix).
