Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.52497 (%build)

[fawad ali syed]

Hi All,
         I do not know if this is the right way to post or not. I do not
know much abut mailing lists. I tried to find forums for rpm but in vain. I
have a situation where I want to package my web application as an RPM
package. It includes only copying from one place to another. The benefit
will be of versioning. If I have a new release, then it will maintain the
versions in rpm database. So if I want to revert to previous version, it
will be easy due to rpm database.

          I am attaching my spec file. I run the following command to build
the rpm package.

*spkisl896:/usr/src/packages # rpmbuild -v -bb --clean
SPECS/tasmportlet_original.spec*

But it gives the following error.*

Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.52497

RPM build errors:
    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.52497 (%build)*

I am also attaching the file /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.52497.

Can you guys please help me out here. Please note that I am very much new to
RPM and Linux as well.
