#27354: nginx @0.8.53_0 installation failure/warnings on update
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Reporter: ast@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: usability | Port: nginx
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Did an unattended update/upgrade based on twitter comment from @macports
that version 0.8.53 was available, but resulted in an installation error
and replacement of active nginx.conf configuration file.
I would've expected the update not to fail, and I would've expected the
new default config to overwrite the original nginx.conf.example

Since this was an unattended update, I didn't notice the errors. There
should be some way to highlight that some of the things you wanted to
update didn't work at the end of the update. The only reason I did the
update at all was to update nginx and it didn't work afterwards.
Here's the end of the messages:

The next morning, I then went to see if it was there:

I wouldn't actually use the port system much, but I do use a lot of
standard UNIX software. I started using UNIX in 1989, bought a NeXT and
used NEXTSTEP as my primary platform from 1991-2000, then migrated to
Linux until earlier this year when I bought the MacBook, so I certainly
have an idea on how to use the command line and other tools like this
(yum, apt, redcarpet, etc.). :)
I actually would've expected the port command to fail at the point where
it choked on the nginx install, but instead, it rendered previously
working software non-functional. Is this by design?
As you can see above, I did get it working, but without wading through
thousands of lines of scrollback buffer, I would've never discovered the
installation issue any other way than I actually did: trying to run the
updated software.
Hopefully the above gives you enough information to correct this issue and
provide better user feedback.
If you need anymore information, just let me know.
Cheers,
ast
