user-setup module fails
Hi,
I'm trying to build a debian package for a binary install script,
which I want to add to an ubuntu 8.04 server install cd. I use a
postinst script to launch the installer script in unattended mode,
because I want the package to be installed and configured before the
ubuntu installation finishes.
My problem is that the postinst script seems to crash the user-setup
module. The ubuntu-installation finishes but it's not possible to
login. The installer log file shows that the user-setup module starts
but no users are created. "more /var/log/installer/syslog | grep
user" shows as last line: User-setup: Shadow passwords are now on
I'm pretty sure this is caused by the postinst script, because
everything works fine if i don't use a postinst script, but then the
software has to be configured after installation.
This is my postinst script:
#!/bin/bash -e
if [ -e /usr/bin/eclipse ]
then
eclipsedir="/usr/bin/eclipse"
else
eclipsedir="/tmp"
fi
/opt/PlasticSCM/PlasticSCM-professional-2.0.101.0-linux-installer.bin
--mode unattended --eclipsedir $eclipsedir --jdeveloperdir /tmp
exit 0
Any help would be very much appreciated!!
Gert
