Hi,

I have setup a server with rolloutd running. On the client system
I ran this

URL=http://192.168.1.7:9000; wget -O- $URL/rollout | perl - -s -u $URL
-o setup

I get this error message

Unable to read config /etc/rollout/rollout.cfg : No such file or
directory

If I create a dummy file /etc/rollout/rollout.cfg, the script
continues to run to completion but

the last statement Installing /etc/rollout/rollout.cfg from
text is not valid since the file /etc/rollout/rolloutcfg is
still a empty dummy file.

What am I doing wrong ?

Best rgds

Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,

The problem that you're running into is the safe flag, or -s argument
for rollout. If you omit the -s flag, it should install and configure
rollout for you.

> URL=http://192.168.1.7:9000; wget -O- $URL/rollout | perl - -s -u $URL
> -o setup

So, instead of what you have above, try this:

URL=http://192.168.1.7:9000; wget -O- $URL/rollout | perl - -u $URL -o setup

Keep in mind that the safe flag doesn't do anything, except report to
you what it's supposed to do, or that's the theory (:

Hi,

Thanks for the response,

regarding this error,

Unable to read config /etc/rollout/rollout.cfg : No such file or
directory

I found that if I re-download the rollout source file again this
version does not have the problem.

This statement below

URL=http://192.168.1.7:9000; wget -O- $URL/rollout | perl - -s -u
$URL -o setup

comes from the INSTALL file. If the -s is to be omitted then this
INSTALL file needs to be amended.

thks again

Jimmy

Thanks for picking that up. I've amended the documentation at http://sites.dparrish.com/rollout and I'll update the INSTALL file now.
