Re: rpmbuild -ba builds source but not binary RPM

I have an issue where I build an RPM using 'rpmbuild -ba <spec file>'

No %files section?

Can you post the output of the "rpmbuild -ba" command?

I definitely have quite a few files defined in the %files section(s).

As far as the output from rpmbuild -ba goes, the output is very
extensive, and it takes about 40 mins to run on my build host. I just
ran an rpmbuild -bb with the following results (only last screen full
here):

make[1]: Leaving directory
`/users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7/doc'

+ exit 0

Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34630

+ umask 022

+ cd /users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD

+ cd openldap-2.4.7

+ rm -Rf /users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7-build

+ mkdir -p /users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7-build

+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress

+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip

+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-static-archive

+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-comment-note

+ /etc/rpm/clean_perl

Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files
/users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7-build

real 45m11.074s

user 1m55.015s

sys 14m29.501s

So it looks like it exits just after checking for unpackaged files.
Also, the tmp file (/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34630) is missing, so I would
expect that it finished without errors.

I dont have anything too far from stock in my .rpmmacros or anything,
just the following:

%_topdir /users/home/jm1/redhat

TIA,

Josh
