I found this function in setup.py: ``` def insertLinesInFile(self, inFilePath, index, text): inFilePathLines = None try: f = open(inFilePath, "r") inFilePathLines = f.readlines() f.close() except: self.logIt("Error reading %s" % inFilePathLines, True) self.logIt(traceback.format_exc(), True) try: self.backupFile(inFilePath) inFilePathLines.insert(index, text) ... ``` The second try should not be part of the except. Now I found that this mistake leads to many errors in the setup.log, but it does not prevent the installation from succeeding. Despite the success, it is no fun looking at errors in the log and thinking they might be the cause of a real problem. Here is another way I scribbled some notes about the problem: For my Debian case, the setup.py script shows this: ``` # Make the generated script LSB compliant lsb_str="""#### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: opendj # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start daemon at boot time # Description: Enable service provided by daemon. ### END INIT INFO""" self.insertLinesInFile("/etc/init.d/opendj", 1, lsb_str) ``` but those lines were not getting inserted into the `/etc/init.d/opendj` file. I was seeing lots of errors in the setup.log, even though the script gets to the end and reports good and the install is successful. I fixed the indentation of that function, and I modified the above to ``` lsb_str="""### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: opendj # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start daemon at boot time # Description: Enable service provided by daemon. ### END INIT INFO """ ``` (small changes to match other files under `/etc/init.d`) and I was able to get rid of the related complaints in `setup.log`.
