Subject: problem with non-sensible tmpdir value: mkdir /tmp//usr/home/smokebot: Permission denied
I'll volunteer to look at this one myself, but want to describe it here. I'm working on running Smolder as a CGI script through an existing Apache install. Smolder is failing to load due the following error chain. The critical bit is this: mkdir /tmp//usr/home/smokebot: Permission denied So for some reason, a non-sensible tmpdir value is being constructed. The follow stack trace is below: ### [Dispatch] ERROR for request '/app': Unable to load module 'Smolder::Control::Public': Smolder::DB::Project can't load Smolder::DB::SmokeReport: mkdir /tmp//usr/home/smokebot: Permission denied at /usr/home/smokebot/www/cgi-bin/../../lib/perl5/i386-freebsd- 64int/Template/Provider.pm line 388 Compilation failed in require at /usr/home/smokebot/www/cgi- bin/../../lib/perl5/Smolder/DB/SmokeReport.pm line 6.

  Thu Mar 18 11:09:53 2010 MARKSTOS [...] cpan.org - Correspondence added
This can be considered resolved as a not-a-bug. Smolder was in fact creating a directory tree correctly inside of /tmp. It turns out that I run Smolder previously as another user, which had created some of the same directory structure, and the second user did not have permission to the use and recreate the original structure. I suppose this could be a problem if multiple users were using Smolder on the same machine, but I'm also OK with just resolving the ticket for now. ( My workaround was to delete the "/tmp/usr" directory from the old user, which was no longer needed. ) On Wed Mar 17 17:52:16 2010, MARKSTOS wrote: Show quoted text
