Non-shell postinstall_files are executed #957

Closed ahamilton9 closed 10 years ago

ahamilton9 commented 10 years ago

The documentation reads that .sh files will be executed in order when included in he post install files list. However, other files (such as configuration files to be copied to a location on the box) are ALSO executed.

For example I tried putting my nginx.conf file in the list, and postinstall attempted to run it. Is there a separate list for these sort of files, or a way to tell them to NOT be executed? I understand many of these sort of steps should probably be done via provisioning, but in our case there is really no reason to waste time with extensive provisioning when the box could already be completed configured.

Any way to do this? Am I just missing something?

I misunderstood that the underscore before files would stop them from being executed. I thought it meant they wouldn't even be transferred to the box. Apologies.
