Glibc testsuit failed in chroot env

rangalo · 12-28-2005, 10:06 AM

Hallo again,

now I am in 6th chapter and compiled glibc-2.3.4.
this is the out put of

grep Error glibc-check-log

Code:

make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/libio/tst-fopenloc.check] Error 127
make[1]: *** [libio/tests] Error 2
make[2]: [/sources/glibc-build/posix/annexc.out] Error 1 (ignored)
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/bug-regex2-mem] Error 127
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/bug-regex14-mem] Error 127
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/bug-regex21-mem] Error 127
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/tst-rxspencer-mem] Error 127
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/tst-pcre-mem] Error 127
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/tst-boost-mem] Error 127
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/posix/bug-glob2-mem] Error 127
make[1]: *** [posix/tests] Error 2
make[2]: *** [/sources/glibc-build/nptl/tst-stack3-mem] Error 127
make[1]: *** [nptl/tests] Error 2
make: *** [check] Error 2

now this time the book says that the test should be generally not produce any errors...

is it ok to continue ?

thanks,
Hardik

hi,

when I ignored the testsuite and tried make install, it failed !!

so now I cannot go further

can anyone tell me what could be wrong ?

i checked the config.log the only thing i found odd was one warning regarding not found autoconf..

i know we havent installed it yet..

perl was found and ldd /tools/bin/perl gave proper results...

thanks,
Hardik

Hallo all,

i figured out and solved the problem..

it was Perl problem .. perl was installed ok but in /tools/lib/perl5, the name of the lib dir was wrong in my case .. it should be from the perl-version 5.8.7 and i had 5.7.8 ...a typo ..

So, for anybody else having the same problem ...i recommend following.

in chroot env test for perl before compiling glibc ..

following tests should be performed.

Code:

perl -v (to know if perl exists)

- check the perl sym link in /bin 

ldd /tools/bin/perl (should give libraries in /tools/lib dir)

perl -V:apiversion (should return 'UNKNOWN' or something else but must not fail ..)
(this command checks apis in /tools/lib/perl5/[perl-version-dir] )

cheers,
Hardik.

Awesome, this was my exact problem. Thanks for the solution.

i've the same problem, (but my perl-dir) was correctly set.

after i executed the check again (make -k check >glibc-check-log 2>&1), i got no errors.
maybe all targets was already created.

note: i work with the live-cd too, and i did NOT apply the patches prior compiling glibc as in the book written:
patch -Np1 -i ../glibc-2.3.4-rtld_search_dirs-1.patch
patch -Np1 -i ../glibc-2.3.4-fix_test-1.patch
patch -Np1 -i ../glibc-2.3.4-tls_assert-1.patch

could it be the reason? if yes, how can i take the patches to my machine

(the patches are not on the live-cd).

rangalo · 01-05-2006, 07:22 AM

Hi nurmi,

could be because of the second patch .. it is for test suit ..

i dont have idea about live cd, but you can also find the pathes on internet , I fould everything at the mentioned url ..

nurmi · 01-27-2006, 04:03 AM

found my bug.
i've taken the wrong perl version 5.8.6 (as on the live-cd)

i restarted to build the toolchain again
prior checking the live-cd with the 6.1.1. book, and updated some packages:

bash-doc-3.0.tar.gz,
binutils-2.15.94.0.2.2-gcc4-1.patch,
bzip2-1.0.3-bzgrep_security-1.patch,
bzip2-1.0.3-install_docs-1.patch,
glibc-2.3.4-fix_test-1.patch,
glibc-2.3.4-rtld_search_dirs-1.patch,
glibc-2.3.4-tls_assert-1.patch,
perl-5.8.7-libc-1.patch,
perl-5.8.7.tar.bz2,
texinfo-4.8-tempfile_fix-1.patch,
util-linux-2.12q-umount_fix-1.patch,
zlib-1.2.3.tar.bz2

have lfs completed successfully, thanks for your hints.

now on to blfs :-)

Hi,

I'm having a similiar problem. The only line returned by grep is:

Quote:

make[2]: [/sources/glibc-build/posix/annexc.out] Error 1 (ignored)

(which is also contained in rangalo's log)

Perl should be alright and the patches have been applied.
The host system is Mandrake 10.1.
Do you have any ideas?

Thanks,
yannick
