Smoothin out bugs in install process

Hi guys,

thanks for making such a great app. two tiny things:

insertdata is trying to use the logger during make install - before
config.pm is set up.

the log dir isn’t created, so the logger dies:

Checking for existing system user…not found. This appears to be a new
installationCreating system user…done.
Can’t write to ‘/usr/local/rt2/log/rt.log.13703.0’: No such file or
directory at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Log/Dispatch/File.pm line 64.
make: *** [insert] Error 2

Makefile line 65 has RT_LOG_PATH = $RT_PATH/log
instead of RT_LOG_PATH = $(RT_PATH)/log
so you get an error on T_PATH/log

thanks again - hope this helps smooth out these bugs.

You’re supposed to set up config.pm before make install…

the log dir isn’t created, so the logger dies:

noted. this will be better documented or actively fixed in 2.0.14 :wink:
(I need to make sure we don’t go and change the permissions on /var/log/ if
someone sets the logdir to that.

That’ll get fixed in 2.0.14. thanks!
