CentOS - Feb 2009 - chkconfig path

Hi all!

I''m trying to install FOG (an opensource ghostlike  backup/rollout
server)
on a centos 5 box but at the end of the isntaller script it can''t find
chckconfig altough it''s in /sbn and I run the (redhat specific install)
script as root.

How can I make sure chckconfig gets found? Tried adding the full path in the
script  to /sbin/chckconfig but got the same error.

Regards, Geert

Try

$ export PATH=/sbin:$PATH

before running the script

Since he ran as root, /sbin (OP: note the correct spelling) s/b part of
his path already. If that''s the case, the above export will just
duplicate the entry (no real harm done though).
>From what is shown in the snippet of results, I would _guess_ that some
function or sub-shell has modified the path or is looking for an
application-specific chkconfig? Add a "set -x" just ahead of the
command
to get a verbose output. Maybe that will give a clue. Also, a "set" or
"export" command with no arguments will show the environment.

Keep an eye out for anything that modifies the path.

Hi Kai,

these are lines 133 till 147

-----------------------------
userlist_enable=NO
tcp_wrappers=YES" > "$ftpconfig";

        chkconfig vsftpd on;
        service vsftpd restart >/dev/null 2>&1;
        service vsftpd status  >/dev/null 2>&1;
        if [ "$?" != "0" ]
        then
                echo "...Failed!";
                exit 1;
        else
                echo "...OK";
-----------------------------

The error mentions line 440, not 140. Is this the only chkconfig line in 
it?

Also, that seems to be related to MySQL?
I think the error is misleading. I doubt it cannot find chkconfig. It 
can''t find something else. You can just replace all chkconfig with 
"/sbin/chkconfig" to prove this.
