Subject: [Xorp-hackers] PIM/SM: xorpsh cannot be started if bgp is disabled
Message-ID: <5319D41D.3090002@Sophos.com>

Hello,

I'm new to this list and also new to XORP.
In my use case only PIM/SM is needed and therefore other 
routing protocols like
bgp, ospf, rip, vrrp, olsr are disabled in scons configuration 
(enable_bgp=no ...).
xorpsh is enabled.
After installation of XORP the call of xorpsh lead to the message:
# xorpsh
[ 2014/03/07 11:32:45.685376  ERROR xorpsh:18451 RTRMGR 
rtrmgr/xorpsh_main.cc:900 main ] xorpsh exiting due to an init error: 
PARSE ERROR [Operational Command File: /share/xorp/templates/policy.cmds 
line 73]: Bad variable name: $(policy.community-list.*); Last symbol 
parsed was "$(policy.community-list.*)"

I inspected policy.cmds and found out that the four items for
community-list and
as-path-list
are all related to BGP. Therefore a simple deletion of those items in 
policy.cmds lead to an error-free call of xorpsh.
So I have a workaround for the problem, but my questions are:

- Is my analysis right?
- If yes, shouldn't the four items in question moved to another place 
(e.g. bgp.cmds)?


Thanks in advance,
Holger

Can you send a patch (git format-patch -s ....) and an example config
file that reproduces the problem?

Thanks,
Ben

Yes, of course.
You can find both in the attachments.

Please remember that this patch is not the whole story:
I didn't cross-check with BGP enabled. I assume that the
removed policy-definitions have to be put to another place.


Best regards,
Holger
