sysrepo-plugind does not start due to missing PLUGINS_PATH

[hthiery]

sysrepo-plugind fails with the following error:

sysrepo-plugind error: Opening "<MY_SYSROOT_PATH>/lib/sysrepo/plugins" directory failed (No such file or directory).

I see that the PLUGINS_PATH is not created during install step. Is this a known behavior? Do we have to create this package outside of the build/install step?

Hi,
I am not sure whether to bother fixing this. The directory does not exist -> there is no plugin -> why start sysrepo-plguind? When you install a plugin, you must put it into the correct path so you will also create the directory.

hmm ... ok I understand. I just want to create a buildroot package with that. This includes an init script that tries to start the sysrepo-plugind but fails because the directory is not there.

I dont know if it is ok to have a failing init during startup?

What do you think?

[michalvasko]

Okay, sysrepo-plugind creates it now if it does not exist.

ok .. thank you.

Unfortunately the patch does not work because it does not create the directory recursivly.

Right, sorry, not sure why I thought it is recursive.
