Re: [Testbed-admins] Problem updating the database after git clone from emulab-stable

["Cheng Cui" <ccui1@tigers.lsu.edu>]

After I reconfigured the "config.status" to the right Python.h path, the
"boss> gmake clean & boss> gmake" has passed successfully. And I have
finished mysql database update through step 6. Things look fine.

In step 7, I deleted all the temp tables. And re-synchronized
"sitevariables" with our local settings in the "src/.. /sql/". Then, I
deleted my "sitevariables" table and run the boss-install:
boss> cd /your/objdir
boss> sudo gmake boss-install

This time, another problem happens:

boss# mysql tbdb < /usr/testbed/src/CRON_branch/sql/database-fill.sql
boss# cd ..
boss# pwd
/usr/testbed/obj/testbed-stable-obj
boss# gmake boss-install
Checking DB schema...
cd ./db && perl schemacheck
Checking Site variables...
cd ./db && perl sitevarscheck
Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach/Mysql.pm line 137.

Checking Initial DB Fill ...
cd ./db && perl dbfillcheck
*** Your installed database is out of date with sql/database-fill.sql
    To bring it up to date, run: 
    mysqldump tbdb > tbdb.backup
    (cd db; mysql tbdb <
/usr/testbed/src/CRON_branch/sql/database-fill.sql)
gmake: *** [install-dbfillcheck] Error 1

I indeed updated tbdb by the database-fill.sql, but still get the same
error. And what's more, I checked the table "sitevariables", it's empty.
But the "gmake boss-install" passed that check. Looks weird:

mysql> select * from sitevariables;
Empty set (0.00 sec)

Any ideas?

Yes.
