Re: [CMake] CMake tar.gz package does not include all installed files

[Nicolas Mora]

That was the root problem indeed!

I cleaned the code and fixed the path with ${CMAKE_INSTALL_DATAROOTDIR}:
install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/glewlwyd
        DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR})
install(FILES glewlwyd.conf.sample
        DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSCONFDIR}/glewlwyd RENAME 
glewlwyd.conf COMPONENT config)
install(DIRECTORY webapp/
        DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_DATAROOTDIR}/glewlwyd/webapp/ 
COMPONENT runtime)

Thanks a lot for the help!

Hi Nicolas,

AFAIK
CPack Archive generators (ZIP, TGZ, etc...) cannot properly handle 
ABSOLUTE_INSTALL path.
The 3 install statements:

install(FILES glewlwyd.service DESTINATION 
${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib/systemd/system COMPONENT config)
install(FILES glewlwyd-init DESTINATION 
${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/etc/init.d/ RENAME glewlwyd COMPONENT config)
install(DIRECTORY webapp/ DESTINATION 
${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/glewlwyd/webapp/ COMPONENT runtime)

Use a DESTINATION which is absolute. Thus the issue with archive generator.

CPackDeb and CPackRPM do handle absolute install path "transparently" 
because they internally set CPACK_SET_DESTDIR.

Have a look at
cmake --help-variable CPACK_WARN_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION
and
cmake --help-variable CPACK_SET_DESTDIR

    Hello,

    I use a CMakeLists.txt script to build an application which works
    pretty well so far, except for the tar.gz package build.

    In the install procedure, I copy the application executable, the
    config files and, SysV init and SystemD service files, and an entire
    directory.

    In the make install and in the .deb file generated, all those files
    are correctly installed. But the .tar.gz package only has the
    executable and the config file, not the rest.

    Can anyone help me point out where my mistake is?

    The script is available here:
    https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt
    <https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt>

    The install commands that are missing in the .tar.gz package are the
    following:
    https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L211 
<https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L211>
    https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L212 
<https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L212>
    https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L213 
<https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L213>

    And the .tar.gz package generator commands are here:
    https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L252 
<https://github.com/babelouest/glewlwyd/blob/cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L252>

    Thanks in advance
