Under certain circumstances, mine where ssh + chroot, if that mean something. "dialog" program, widely used inside the script, return an error "cannot open tty-output", like it was a terminal-less connection, the solution for me was to change all the occurencies where dialog is called in a subshell from: --- from --- USER=$(dialog --stdout \ --backtitle "Please choose a username and password for the initial user." \ --inputbox "Username:" 0 0 "admin") RESULT=$? --- from --- to --- to --- dialog --output-fd 3 \ --backtitle "Please choose a username and password for the initial user." \ --inputbox "Username:" 0 0 "admin" \ 3> "/tmp/${tmpfile}" RESULT=$? USER=$(< "/tmp/${tmpfile}" ) --- to --- may be other are affected, or is this one a misconfiguration issue of this particular box ?
I was unable to reproduce this. Can You provide me more information, for example if it happened more than once?
it's a "corner case" it happen if "dialog" cannot find/use /dev/tty* feel free to fix as wontfix
Fixed in app-admin/zope-config-0.6. Thanks
