>Description:
The command:
ezjail_admin update -b
responds with an error message on my system:
Error: Cannot find your copy of the FreeBSD source tree in .
Consider using 'ezjail-admin install' to create the base jail from
an ftp server.
Opposite to the message, the FreeBSD source tree is installed under /usr/src
and the respective path is set in /usr/local/etc/ezjail.conf (ezjail_sourcetree).
Another system with ezJail 3.1 works fine with the same settings. I drilled
down the problem with diff of ezjail_admin version 3.1 vs. 3.2.2. It looks
like that 3.2.2 within the #### ezjail-admin UPDATE ##### section unsets a
couple of variables but never assigns them again. Thats why later in the code:
# Bump the user for some of the most common errors
[ -d "${ezjail_sourcetree}" ] || exerr "Error: Cannot find your
copy of the FreeBSD source tree in ${ezjail_sourcetree}.\n
Consider using '${ezjail_admin} install' to create the base
jail from an ftp server."
exits with the error.
The problem was already reported to ezjail@erdgeist.org (the ezJail
mailing list). This PR is for informational purpose.
>How-To-Repeat:
After the installation of ezjail, try to update the basejail with:
ezjail_admin update -b
>Fix:
I could fix the problem in 3.2.2 temporarely by changing the line:
unset ezjail_provideports ezjail_installaction ezjail_osversion_source
ezjail_osversion_destination ezjail_sourcetree
to:
unset ezjail_provideports ezjail_installaction ezjail_osversion_source
ezjail_osversion_destination
