yocto do_package error

Hello,

I have written a recipe that copies files to rootfs and I am getting the following error when running bitbake:

ERROR: pm2-bunyan-0.1-r1.4 do_package: file copy failed with exit code 2 (cmd was tar -cf - -C [local-path]/tmp/work/cortexa7hf-neon-dey-linux-gnueabi/pm2-bunyan/0.1-r1.4/image -p . | tar -xf - -C [local-path]/tmp/work/cortexa7hf-neon-dey-linux-gnueabi/pm2-bunyan/0.1-r1.4/package):

age/image/image/image/image/configure.sstate: Cannot open: Bad address
pseudo_append_element: path too long (wanted 4098 bytes).

where [local-path] is the path to my project.

The recipe is (skipped the usual fields):

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
SRC_URI = "file://bin/ file://lib/ file://LICENSE"

do_install_append () {

   find . -mindepth 1 -type d -exec install -d ${D}/{} \;
   find . -type f -exec bash -c 'install -m $(stat -c "%a" "$@") "$@" ${D}/$@ ' _ {} \;

}

I've checked inside ./tmp/work/cortexa7hf-neon-dey-linux-gnueabi/pm2-bunyan/0.1-r1.4/ and all files and directories were successfully copied/created.

Any hints what causes this error? 

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Hello Georgios Gkitsas,

It seems that the paths are wrong and that’s why you’re getting that very long /image path. Were you able to fix the recipe? If you did and you would want it would be helpful for other users if you shared your findings.
