Have a well known program, qmail, compiled on Leopard. We've used it
for 3 years or so on Mac Tiger et al.
qmail runs on most any platform out there. In the code, are the
following lines:
if (chdir(auto_qmail) == -1) _exit(61);
execv(*binqqargs,binqqargs);
_exit(120);
binqqargs is defined as:
static char *binqqargs[2] = { 0, 0 } ;
Later it is set as:
binqqargs[0] = "bin/qmail-queue";
auto_qmail contains the path /var/qmail
So, the chdir on all other platforms goes to /var/qmail, and, the
execv executes from there bin/qmail-queue.
The execv (added more code) returns an error 2, or, file not found
on Leopard.
It works perfectly on Tiger, freeBSD, you name it.
If I change binqqargs to /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue, all works fine.
Could it be a bug in execv on Leoprd when when not using a absolute
filename? If so, what is the mechanism to report and hopefully some
day get it fixed?
Steve
