Solaris 10 install issue - Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 4

[Robert]

I am having issues installing on Solaris 10 (i.e. Solaris 10 8/11 s10s_u10wos_17b SPARC) and am getting the error below when it tries to finish the install. 

5- Installing the system

 - Running the Makefile

make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 4: Unexpected end of line seen

 Error 0x5.

 Building error. Unable to finish the installation.

The line in question is "uname_S := $(shell sh -c 'uname -s 2>/dev/null || echo not') ".  The output from that command is below.

# sh -c 'uname -s 2>/dev/null || echo not' 

SunOS 

I tried changing the first line of the install.sh script to "#!/bin/bash" and that didn't work.  I checked our compilers and we have gcc installed but not cc.  Below is the gcc version.

# gcc --version

gcc (GCC) 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath)

Copyright (C) 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 

Below is the output using the following command: /bin/sh -x ./install.sh.

MAKEBIN=make

+ [ XSunOS = XFreeBSD ]

+ return 0 

+ [ true = false ] 

+ cat ./etc/templates/en/errors/0x5-build.txt 

 Error 0x5.

 Building error. Unable to finish the installation. 

I also tried patching our install.sh script using the patch (src_init_update_sh.diff) that was provided in another thread but that patch doesn't work.  Not to mention that thread was back in 2013.

Any ideas?

what is output of: 

make --version

as you can see from errormessage, problem is in the makefile.

you could also try to edit file src/makefile:

find line 4:

uname_S := $(shell sh -c 'uname -s 2>/dev/null || echo not')

and replace it with

uname_S=SunOS

and try again..

Not sure if this will help but these are the steps I took to build a binary installer for Solaris 10 (I did the same for 2.8.3 and it worked as well):

 

Compile OSSEC on Solaris 10 with OPENSSL Support

 

  1. Install opencsw pkgutil

      --> pkgadd -d http://get.opencsw.org/now

  2. Install OPENSSL and OPENSSL Libraries

      --> pkgutil -i libssl_dev

      --> pkgutil -i openssl_utils

  3. Download OSSEC Tar file

      --> wget http://www.ossec.net/files/ossec-hids-2.8.2.tar.gz

  4. Unzip the tar

      --> gunzip ossec-hids-2.8.2.tar.gz

  5. Untar the tar

      --> tar -xvf ossec-hids-2.8.2.tar.gz

  6. Change to the src dir

      --> cd ossec-hids-2.8.2/src

  7. Edit the Makeall file

      --> vi Makeall

  8. Change all instances of /bin/sh to /usr/bin/bash

      --> shift+:%s/\/bin\/sh/\/usr\/bin\/bash/g

      --> shift+:wq!

  9. Locate gcc and create softlink to cc

      --> which gcc

      --> cd to gcc dir

      --> ln -s <gccDir> cc

  10. Find where the OPENSSL Header resides

      --> find / -name opensslconf.h -print

  11. Update the OPENSSL check in the Makeall file

      --> cd /tmp/ossec-hids-2.8.2/src

      --> vi Makeall

      --> /ssl

      --> change "if [ -e /usr/sfw/include/openssl/opensslconf.h ]; then" to the path of the header from the find command in step 10

      --> escape shift+:wq!

  12. Start the build process

      --> make setagent

      --> make all (make sure you see "-DUSE_OPENSSL" in the agent_auth compile)

      --> make build

  13. Update the preloaded-vars.conf

      --> cd /tmp/ossec-hids-2.8.2/etc

      --> vi preloaded-vars.conf

      --> update the agent variables as needed and exit

  14. Test the new binaries

      --> cd /tmp/ossec-hids-2.8.2

      --> ./install.sh

      --> /var/ossec/bin/agent-auth -m <ossec server> -p <port> (should be successful with openssl support)

  15. Create new binary tar file for deployment

      --> cd /tmp

      --> tar -cvf ossec-solaris-binary-2.8.2.tar ossec-hids-2.8.2/

It would be interesting to know what's broken in Solaris's sh.
