Description Bogo Mipps 2006-06-02 19:03:49 UTC
>>> Install jffnms-0.8.2 into /usr/tmp/portage/jffnms-0.8.2/image/ category net-analyzer
chmod: invalid mode: `ug+gw'
Try `chmod --help' for more information.

!!! ERROR: net-analyzer/jffnms-0.8.2 failed.
!!! Function src_install, Line 58, Exitcode 1
!!! (no error message)

Sorry but man chmod doesn't help me with ug+gw, and I can't get past this point without knowing what it's trying to do. I gather others are using this ebuild successfully, so is it just my machine?

Failing hearing anything further I checked http://www.jffnms.org/jffnms/INSTALL and found correct chmod command should be ug+rw, not ug+gw as in the ebuild. 

Have altered my ebuild but now I find MD5's don't check out. Just checking out a workaround for changing my ebuild (I assume new portage 2.1.0 has altered method)

Have still heard no more, however have successfully emerged jffnms with altered ebuild as above.  Now I find that the install instructions as per the gentoo install doc are incorrect - so for the benefit of anyone else having a problem with install they should use the following command to sym-link apache, not the incomplete command in the gentoo doc.

<ln -s /opt/jffnms/htdocs  /var/www/localhost/htdocs/jffnms>

or whatever path your apache uses.

On my first emerge of jffnms I got an error message that jffnms needs php
compiled with USE-flag "gd". After recompilation of PHP jffnms again complained
about PHP-USE-flag wddx missing in PHP, so I took a look at the jffnms-ebuild 
and inserted all the USE-flags mentioned in the Variable "local flags" into the 
file /etc/portage/package.use and recompiled PHP again. I then tried to emerge
jffnms again, but it stopped installation without further error-reporting:

* Adding group 'jffnms' to your system ...
  *  - Groupid: next available
  * Adding user 'jffnms' to your system ...
  *  - Userid: 104
  *  - Shell: /bin/bash
  *  - Home: /dev/null
  *  - Groups: jffnms,apache
 >>> Unpacking source...
 >>> Unpacking jffnms-0.8.2.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/jffnms-0.8.2/work
 >>> Source unpacked.
 >>> Test phase [not enabled]: net-analyzer/jffnms-0.8.2

 >>> Install jffnms-0.8.2 into /var/tmp/portage/jffnms-0.8.2/image/ category 
net -analyzer

How do I get jffnms to install completely?

Hi folks, 

Just to let you know that I, the current maintainer of this package, am resignating from the Gentoo Project and soon someone from the netmon heard may decide what to do with this bug.

Greetings
