Question

I’m trying to run this web2py install script on a clean CentOS 6 install, and am getting the following set of errors:

checkmodule:  loading policy configuration from httpd.te
httpd.te:1:ERROR 'Building a policy module, but no module specification found.
' at token 'EOF' on line 1:

checkmodule:  error(s) encountered while parsing configuration
semodule_package:  Could not open file No such file or directory:  httpd.mod
semodule:  Failed on httpd.pp!

 - Configure Apache to use mod_wsgi

Stopping httpd:                                            [FAILED]
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/default.conf:
Invalid command 'EOF', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
                                                           [FAILED]

./setup-web2py-fedora.sh: line 407: EOF: command not found
./setup-web2py-fedora.sh: line 408: EOF: command not found
./setup-web2py-fedora.sh: line 409: EOF: command not found

I don’t understand why the script is having problems processing ‘EOF’ as it’s just supposed to be the delimiting identifier of a heredoc.

Answer 1

There is an erroneous EOF at line 182 (the correct one, matching the << EOF, appears at line 193). This ends up inside the httpd.te file, which causes a syntax error when checkmodule tries to process it.
