Description Rainer Koenig 2006-01-05 05:12:08 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050517 Firefox/1.0.4 (Debian package 1.0.4-2)

Description of problem:
Installed rhr2-2.0 on a test machine and did the MEMORY test. Result was that the test failed. 



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhr2-2.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL4
2. Install rhr2-2.0 test suite
3. Run MEMORY test
  

Actual Results:  Test interface reported error after the test.

Expected Results:  No error.

Additional info:

I had a look at the output.log of the MEMORY test. It dies here:
Line# 59:  echo "Starting RHTS memtest"
Line# 60:  cp $EXTERNALS/bin/{memtst,memtest.sh} .

The problem is that the cp in line 60 fails because memtest.sh is not under $EXTERNALS/bin/
Doing a rpm -ql rhr2-2.0 | grep memt shows:
/usr/share/rhr/external/bin/memtst
/usr/share/rhr/external/memtest.sh

A workaround for this is create a hard link in /usr/share/rhr/external/bin for memtest.sh.

Comment 1 Will Woods 2006-01-12 20:54:18 UTC
I've confirmed this problem and committed a fix to CVS; this bug will be fixed
in the next version of rhr2.

That workaround is acceptable, but I strongly recommend running MEMORY2 instead.

Comment 3 Will Woods 2006-01-12 21:12:19 UTC
Could you please try the above MEMORY test to confirm that it solves the
problem? Just copy it to /usr/share/rhr/tests/MEMORY and run a MEMORY test.
