chmod fails

["Stefán F. Stefánsson" <st...@snote.decode.is>]

Hello.

I've been struggling with Alexandria setup for the past week or so now
and I've made some progress.  However... the chmod task is always
failing on me and I get error messages that some of the log and blame
files cannot be created.  I can get around the first error (which is the
log file error) by creating an empty
ALEX_HOME/logs/path_to_my_app/appname.TAGNAME.build.log.xml (by using
touch).  Then I run into problems with the
ALEX_HOME/var/path_to_my_app/appname.TAGNAME.blame.xml file.  It seems
as though it is not enough to touch this file before running the
alexandria script and besides, even though it were I would not be happy
with having to do that every time I add a project to alexandria!

I'm sending a verbose logfile from alexandrias output with this letter
so you can see a detailed description of the problem.  Look especially
at the following lines:
	1930 - [chmod] Result: -1
	1955 - [java] Cannot write on the specified log file. Make sure
the path exists and you have write permissions.
	1960 - XSL Error: Could not parse
file:/usr/jakarta/alexandria/logs/app/ips.HEAD.build.log.xml document!

Hope someone can help me... I'm in a hurry (aren't we all...), I need
this thing up and running ASAP.

Kind regards,
	Stefan Freyr

p.s. Who's bright idea is it to deny all mails larger than 100Kb???  I
couldn't even fit the short version of the log in a file < 100Kb.  Now I
have to put my file on a public webserver somewhere and point to it from
this letter :(
