#127 Dogtag 10 - Sporadic Build Failures
Closed: Fixed Opened by mharmsen.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

Most of the time, Dogtag 10 builds successfully.

However, on occasions (which have currently only been encountered when using 'mock'), indeterminate build failures have been encountered which appear to pertain to the multi-thread building capabilities of 'cmake':

It looks a bit confusing because I think there are two threads running,
and they are building pki-nsutil and pki-jndi-realm concurrently. It
looks though like pki-nsutil is required by pki-jndi-realm, and cmake
just does not know this. In the case where the build is successful,
pki-nsutil has already been built when pki-jndi-realm is built.

It this were true, then the fix would be add the dependency in the
base/common/src/CMakeLists.txt file as follows:

  set(CMAKE_JAR_CLASSES_PREFIX com/netscape/cmscore/realm)
  add_jar(pki-jndi-realm ${pki-jndi-realm_SRCS})
  add_dependencies(pki-nsutil)
  install_jar(pki-jndi-realm ${JAVA_JAR_INSTALL_DIR}/pki)
  set(PKI_JNDI_REALM_JAR ${pki-jndi-realm_JAR_FILE} CACHE INTERNAL "pki-jndi-realm jar file")

The add_dependencies line is currently not in the code, but it would
presumably result in pki-nsutil being built before pki-jndi-realm. Its
not clear to me though that pki-jndi-realm actually uses anything in
pki-nsutil.

Is pki-nsutil needed as a dependency or not or is it maybe something else. Make sure it depends on the right jar packages.

However the dependency line is not complete ;)

Put in defensive code to build dependencies I think will solve the problem.
