Reduce postinstalls complexity

XMLWordPrintable

    • 1

      The postinstall is not O.K.

      There is no reason to have fragile sed things such as

      sed -i -e "s: modules/: $currentDir/modules/:g" \
-e "s:/var/www:$currentDir/www:g" \
-e "s:ServerRoot \"/etc/httpd\":ServerRoot \"$currentDir\":" \
-e "s:PidFile.*:PidFile ${currentDir}/run/httpd.pid:" \

      in a new release.

      Anything that is dependent on path has to have placeholders @SOMETHING@ and these placeholders are to be committed in .conf files.

      .postinstall script uses sed (or powershell) to replace @SOMETHING@ with user's paths as necessary.

      Update and simplify .postinstall and .conf / .conf.in scripts and configs accordingly, please.
