help debugging script

i've already found 2 typos

Code:

TGT=noip2
CC=gcc

PREFIX=/usr/local
CONFDIR=[COLOR="Red"]${PREFIX}[/COLOR]/etc
BINDIR=${PREFIX}/bin

# these defines are for Linux
LIBS=
ARCH=linux

# for Mac OS X and BSD systems that have getifaddr(), uncomment the next line
#ARCH=bsd_with_getifaddrs

# for early BSD systems without getifaddrs(), uncomment the next line
#ARCH=bsd


# for solaris, uncomment the next two lines
# LIBS=-lsocket -lnsl
# ARCH=sun

${TGT}: Makefile ${TGT}.c 
	${CC} -Wall -g -O2 -D${ARCH} -DPREFIX=/"${PREFIX}/" ${TGT}.c -o ${TGT} ${LIBS}

install: ${TGT} 
	if [ ! -d ${BINDIR} ]; then mkdir -p ${BINDIR};fi
	if [ ! -d ${CONFDIR} ]; then mkdir -p ${CONFDIR};fi
	cp ${TGT} ${BINDIR}/${TGT}
	${BINDIR}/${TGT} -C -c /tmp/no-ip2.conf
	mv /tmp/no-ip2.conf ${CONFDIR}/no-ip2.conf

package: ${TGT}
	rm  -f *.bak
	mv ${TGT} binaries/${TGT}-`uname -s`-32bit
	rcp gemini:/local/src/noip-2.0/${TGT} binaries/${TGT}-`uname -s`-64bit
	cd ..; tar zcvf /tmp/noip-2.1.tgz noip-2.0/*

clean: 
	rm -f *o
	rm -f ${TGT}
	rm -f binaries/*

basically the 2 typo i found were \ instead of / the error output is here

Code:

dave@dave-desktop:~/Desktop/noip-duc-linux/noip-2.1.7$ make
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -Dlinux -DPREFIX=/"/usr/local/" noip2.c -o noip2
dave@dave-desktop:~/Desktop/noip-duc-linux/noip-2.1.7$ sudo make install

if [ ! -d /usr/local/etc ]; then mkdir -p /usr/local/etc;fi
cp noip2 /usr/local/bin/noip2
/usr/local/bin/noip2 -C -c /tmp/no-ip2.conf

Auto configuration for Linux client of no-ip.com.

Connect to dynupdate.no-ip.com timed out
Network must be operational to create configfile. Ending!
mv /tmp/no-ip2.conf /usr/local/etc/no-ip2.conf
mv: cannot stat `/tmp/no-ip2.conf': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
dave@dave-desktop:~/Desktop/noip-duc-linux/noip-2.1.7$

BTW: what does the item in red do ?, tried google & wiki but google doesn't do symbols, this is doing my head in now

 

You've not given enough information on what files you're editing or what you're even doing, please be more thorough in future.

Now it seems you're editing a Makefile, $PREFIX is a variable.

 

PREFIX=/usr/local
CONFDIR=${PREFIX}/etc

PREFIX looks like a string variable, so confdir could also look like this:

CONFDIR=/usr/local/etc

and you would get the same result I believe.

Not really sure what I'm talking about... but it looks like there is no response from dynupdate.no-ip.com, which timed out the connection, which then didn't create a config file. Then when it tried to copy the non-existant config file you got:

mv: cannot stat `/tmp/no-ip2.conf': No such file or directory

And because of that it can't make! You probably knew all that already, but I wasn't really sure what you're asking...

 

sorry, yes it's a makefile, basically i'm trying to install noip-duc-linux, but i found 2 errors in the script, the whole point is i'm trying to get DDNS working on my new router, i don't really understand DDNS and then i have to start debugging a script

:beer:, that explains a lot. & yes i agree

bull

i agree, but, it's moving not copying[ot]simply misreading it[/ot]

:agree:

help with debugging the makefile

BTW: thank you
