Subject:   vpopmail make install fail, after one 'successful' install...yikes!
Message-ID:  <001c01c09899$86e13be0$cc01a8c0@highland>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I modified the /Makefile for vpopmail to set the prefix to /home and ran
make install without realizing there was already a vpopmail user with a
default directory of /usr/local/vpopmail. (it would be nice if the make
deinstall removed the vpopmail user)...anyhow.

I figure no problem, and remove the user but of course a make deinstall
doesn't complete successfully because the Makefile points to /home as the
prefix.

SO i remove the /usr/local/vpopmail directory manually and attempt to run
the install again.

and it blows...

i've tried even removed the binary for vpopmail...  any help is greatly
appreciated.
