do_install fails to do a package for custom directory

do_install fails to do a package for custom directory

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1038 bytes --]

Hi All,

I am trying to write a custom recipe for my make based project. So I am able to compile the project and generate the binary. Now when I am trying to package using do_install() I am not able to put the package in custom directory.
So when I use ${D}${bindir} it work perfectly fine and the package has those binary. But when I tried with ${D}/system/hello  it didn't works. Below is the snapshot of the do_install ()

do_install () {
     cd ${WORKDIR}

     # init script
     install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d
     install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/sysconfig
     install -m 755 ${WORKDIR}/test/test ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d/test
     install -m 644 ${WORKDIR}/test/test ${D}${sysconfdir}/sysconfig/test
     # executable
     install -d ${D}/system/hello
     #install -d ${D}${bindir}
     #install -m 755 ${S}/helloworl/hello ${D}${bindir}/hello <== it works
     install -m 755 ${S}/helloworld/hello ${D}/system/hello/hello <== it doesn't work
}

So any thoughts how to fix this issue.

Thanks,
Abhinav

What do you mean that it doesn't work?

Most likely is that the directory /system and it's contents
are not being packaged.  Try adding this line
   FILES_${PN} += "/system"

Basically When I use install -d ${D}/system/hello the files were not getting part of it. But as you suggested putting it in FILES_${PN} =+ "/system" works.

Where I can find a tutorial for such custom recipe and not the hello world which they put in ${bindir}

Hi,

I think may be you missed,

FILES_${PN} += "/system"

then you can see your binary inside ${PN} package.

Hi All,

One more thing how to have %pre and %post defined in the recipe file. As I am not able to find the directive which can do the jobs. As I need to stop an service and the post upgrade need to start the service.

Thanks,
Abhinav

Hi,

You can refer any of the existing recipe. For eg,
http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/recipes-connectivity/dhcp/dhcp.inc

You can see how post scripts are used.
