Missing dependancy

[rapsys]

I tried today git version of the phoronix test suite on a ubuntu amd64 arch.

While trying the install of sqlite it failed.

sqlite:
Test Installation 2 of 14
2 Files Needed [2.85 MB]
Downloading: sqlite-3.6.19.tar.gz [2.81MB]
Downloading .................................................. ......
Downloading: pts-sqlite-tests-1.tar.gz [0.04MB]
Estimated Download Time: 1m ........................................
Installation Size: 18.4 MB
Installing Test @ 15:21:49
The installer exited with a non-zero exit status.
Installation Log: /root/.phoronix-test-suite/installed-tests/sqlite/install-failed.log


After watching the log file it seems there was missing the tcl8.5 package for tclsh requirement in configure.

After installing it didn't failed.

Plz fix it if possible.

There seems to have a bug that directories for individual benchmark aren't correctly created :'(

And an option to output the results of all test in a tree bench-yyyyddmm-hhmmss/{test1,test2,test3} would be a great option instead to be asked for every names.

Can you elaborate on this?

You can already do so, run phoronix-test-suite batch-setup and then use phoronix-test-suite batch-run from now on rather than run.

It can be fixed by adding this code :
if (!is_dir(dirname($to_file))) {
mkdir(dirname($to_file), 0755, true);
}

In file :
phoronix-test-suite/pts-core/objects/tandem_Xml/tandem_XmlWriter.php
At line 137 in function saveXMLFile before the return line

But in what scenario are you hitting this problem so I can fix the root cause? I have yet to hit an issue where it's not being created.

(I installed the test suite in /root)

As you notice there is an undefined variable too

[Michael]

Does it happen if you call it disklog rather than disk.log?

[rapsys]

No it's don't happen then

[rapsys]

No it's don't happen then

I noticed an other small problem, i asked to not prompt for description :
Prompt for test description (Y/n): n
But in my test it ask anyway :
Would you like to save these test results (Y/n):
Enter a name to save these results: disk.log
Enter a unique name for this test run: disk
