What does "find /usr/rpms/tripwire-2.4.0.1/src -iname install\*" say?

Any particular reason why you're 0) building rpm's as root and 1) not installing tripwire-2.3.1-22.el4.i386.rpm?

I m sorry unSpawn for replying late ;(
>What does "find /usr/rpms/tripwire-2.4.0.1/src -iname install\*" say?
nothing, i.e /../tripwire-2.4.0.1/src directory is empty

>Any particular reason why you're 0) building rpm's as root and
I just didnt get u.. sory

> 1) not installing tripwire-2.3.1-22.el4.i386.rpm?
Because I searched "Tripwire" on google, and second link was of sourceforge.net, and from there I download the tripwire-<version>.tar.bz2.. no special reason. I simply download the "tripwire-2.3.1-22.el4.i386.rpm" and install it sucessfuly

Thanks for the support, help
Regards

I installed from tripwire-2.4.0.1-src.tar.bz2 on one of my boxes and had to run the following from my tripwire-2.4.0.1 directory:
The install.sh and install.cfg files are in contrib, not install...

Thanks gilead for posting that quickfix.

General note for those installing the tripwire 2.4.0.1 from source (not sure about binaries, rpms, etc):

• This package has a few easily-corrected blips / glitches that might interrupt an otherwise easy install:
  
• As pointed out by gilead above, running "make install" will fail due to a Makefile reference to the (missing) "install" directory. This can be fixed by running the following...
  
  
  Code:

  "ln -s contrib install"

  (without quotes)
  .....in the install directory prior to running "make install" (as pointed out by gilead)
  
• Also, the documentation--including Release_Notes, README, and others--is not included in the archive and will not be installed to the default system / local directories. This won't affect operation of tw, and documentation can be obtained from sourceforge and elsewhere.
  

We'll see about cleaning up the archive for next time around.
