Issue when Updating to Version 1.6.0-beta.2082 | sed: can't read /etc/nfs.conf:

Hi,

When trying to update I receive the error below

I do not have a /etc/nfs.conf file, what should be in it?

@falko That’s interesting.

/etc/nfs.conf is supposed to be the defacto location for the nfs configuration though I suppose it could should up in other places.

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/nfs.conf.5.html

I suppose I’ll have to be more specific in the calls but it’s okay I have to remove the entry anyway.

Thanks for letting me know.

@falko I have updated the code for both working-1.6 and dev-branch to revert the changes to port=20048 to commented out.

Moved the code to set the mountd port only by use of an nfs.conf.d directory.

This should prevent the problems of port being set in multiple places on subsequent updates.

@Tom-Elliott thanks Tom, updated

[Tom Elliott]

@falko And it worked?

Now I did add checking to see which file to use, can you tell me what output of:
rpcinfo -p gives you?

[falko]

@Tom-Elliott It let me install without issue, I have not imaged anything yet

@falko Imaging will work in your case, I’m just not sure how you can have NFS without having /etc/nfs.conf.

I did the 2 points I’m aware of:
/etc/nfs.conf
/usr/etc/nfs.conf

but I have no idea where your nfs.conf file is

[falko]

@Tom-Elliott me neither!

I have run a search on the server (Debian 11) and it appears I do not have one at all?
