ubuntu 9.10, ./ltib fail.. for MPC8379E

[xbrown93]

I'm trying to setup development environment for MPC8379E.

first, I installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my PC.

and I downloaded MPC837XE-RDB-20081113.iso

I ran "install" like below

$ cd ~

$ /media/cdrom0/ltib-mpc8379xe-rdb/install

~/ltib-mpc8379xerdb-20081113 is successfully made.

$ cp ltib-mpc8379xerdb-20081113 ltib-mpc8379xerdb-20081113-small -a

$ cd ltib-mpc8379xerdb-20081113-small

and i comment the rpm-build line of the ltib file.  and then I do like below

$ ./ltib

sometimes later, an error message in host_config.log shows like below

what can i do for it?

hi

just check the error messages (from your log):

"sudo: /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm: command not found"

===> ... because it is not there...

"mkdir: cannot create directory `/opt/freescale': Permission denied"

===> means that your user has no permission on writing in /opt

"Cannot create the download directory:
 /opt/freescale/pkgs"

===> because the parent doesn't exist (as above mentiones)

"Either change to a global directory you have write permissions to,
or create it as root.  Please set the permissions to 777"

===> ... the advice LTIB gives you to overcomme this issue

so, the quick solution is:

chmod 777 /opt

and call  ./ltib again.

in addition, check if your user is in sudo list

Note that working on a new installed Linux based OS, you have all the chances to encounter other issues related to the "needed on host" packages.Carefully read the logs and error messages and proceed as sugested.

all the best!

hello all 

 LTIB install process requires the normal user login.

but some of its process cannot be completed without the SUper User (root) login permission. (logically)

For the process bounded by the normal user login we have to perform the task as below:

1. Login as normal user <freescale>  {assume your normal user name is freescale}

2. run Terminal.

3. su - 

4. Enter your root password.

5. sudo /usr/sbin/visudo

6. a file will open in an editor mode, please add the line below to this file.

    freescale ALL=NOPASSWD:     ALL

(where freescale is your normal user name).

  Add this line to the position where the below lines were found :

#User priviledge specifications

root     ALL=(ALL)     ALL

-------------------

 after addition it will become to

------------------

#User priviledge specifications

root     ALL=(ALL)     ALL

freescale ALL=NOPASSWD:     ALL

7. save and exit the editor.

8. "exit" command will exit the super user login.

9. Reboot is neccessary for this process may take effect."reboot"

10. now you can do ./install or ./ltib without such hackles.

Hi,

I got the same problem and exactly follow the above instruction of you guys but can not get it worked.

I realize that, after I use  chmod 777 directory_name, and run ./ltib, the permission of accessing those directories is reset. I guess that there are some command inside ltib do initialize the setting of permission in run time. Any suggestion for resolving the problem are highly appriciate.

Hi,

"sudo /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm" --> "Cannot create the download directory: /opt/freescale/pkgs"

Probably you've somehow ignored the sudo related message. Your user should be in the sudoers group for rpm cmd.

edit /etc/sudoers or use /usr/sbin/visudo and add the following line to that file:

<username> ALL =  NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rpm, /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm

where <username> is (ofcourse) the user name you are using while building ltib.

All the best!

[robetaynguyen]

Dear Reky, I did follow your instruction and my sudoers like this:

# /etc/sudoers## This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.## See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.#Defaults        env_reset# Host alias specification# User alias specification# Cmnd alias specification# User privilege specificationroot    ALL=(ALL) ALLfreescale ALL=NOPASSWD:     ALLquocnh ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rpm, /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm# Uncomment to allow members of group sudo to not need a password# (Note that later entries override this, so you might need to move# it further down)# %sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL# Members of the admin group may gain root privileges%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL

 But the problems is still remained:

Do you have any ideas on that ?

[AshishAgarwal]

Hello

i think you made a littile mistake in /etc/sudoers

freescale ALL=NOPASSWD:     ALL
quocnh ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rpm, /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm

What is your normal user name is it "quocnh" ?

So you have to chnage the "freescale" to your normal user name. like below.

As i already told you that freescale is an example only..   

then the next line custom rights will not be needed .

and yes as root change the

root# chmod -R 777  /opt/freescale.

quocnh ALL=NOPASSWD:     ALL
# quocnh ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rpm, /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm

[Reky]

"freescale ALL=NOPASSWD:     ALL"      <=>     "Let user named 'freescale' to have access/to execute everything that root owns, through sudo and don't ask for password"

"quocnh ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rpm, /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm"<=>     "Let user named 'quocnh' to have access/to execute /usr/bin/rpm and /opt/freescale/ltib/usr/bin/rpm, through sudo and don't ask for password"

There was no mistake in his script. Just the fact that the line for user freescale has no effect since he doesn't have (i hope for sys security...) a user named freescale. Actually, i doubt that a statement as "<ltib_user> ALL=NOPASSWD:     ALL" is accepted by LTIB without using a 'nocheck' option while running.

The logic: we provide this implementation for sudoers setup for proper security maintaining. So, the user that develops on certain machine, doesn't need a root account. He needs access only for rpm tools for proper package management. Since LTIB has a lot of host OS dependencies, the need for OS protection is even bigger.

Thank you you alls for your replies. I overcomed it by running ./ltib in root after using sudo -s eventhough they don't recommend me to run in this mode. The configuration process was stoped with another errors as follow:

It sounds there's a missing package on the provided site or the package pme_priv is no longer exist. Any suggestion to help me overcome this?

Thank you a million

[qwerty]

I am getting this same missing package while trying to build the MPC8306 BSP through LTIB.

Was there ever a solution to these missing packages? I know others can circumvented this by finding the packages elsewhere, but this one doesn't seem to be generally available.

Thanks,

Quinn.

Hi,

Who is the owner and what are the rights on /opt/freescale directory?

This situation might happen if (eg.) you've formerly installed a CodeWarrior as root. I think the toolchain is stored in /opt/freescale/usr/local...

If the owner is root and the rights are 732, just "chmod 777 /opt/freescale" to make it work.
