I wrote a bash script to install multiple packages and calling the bash script in %post. But its not executing the script. I am new to this area and I am not sure what I am missing.
If i manually execute the script its working fine but not through the rpm package.

I ran the rpmbuild -ba InstallRPM.spec and it created a rpm file which I executed but nothing happened. Its getting hung in the below mentioned spot.

You are using rpm the wrong way. Don't install dependencies in a %post script. I suggest you to read the rpm packaging guide first.
You should use Requires in your spec file, like this:
Requires: vim
Requires: zip

I need to install Nginx on my target which there is no internet connection, how can I install Nginx with all dependencies in an offline mode?? thanks in advance for your answers.
I have recently gone through this procedure and this is what worked for me on centos7:
You need an online Linux server to download dependencies. You can use virtual machines or anything else.
On your online server create a .sh file and copy script below in it. (I named it download_dependencies)
#!/bin/bash
# This script is used to fetch external packages that are not available in standard Linux distribution
# Example: ./fetch-external-dependencies ubuntu18.04
# Script will create nms-dependencies-ubuntu18.04.tar.gz in local directory which can be copied
# into target machine and packages inside can be installed manually
set -eo pipefail
# current dir

Then on the same directory that contains download_dependencies.sh run command below:
download_dependencies.sh <your linux version>
In my case, I ran code below (leave it blank to see options):
download_dependencies.sh centos7
It should start to download and when it finished you should see nms-dependencies-rhel7.tar.gz in your directory.
Copy that file(.tar.gz) to your offline target.
Now on your target machine, go to directory which you copied your file and run the code below:
tar -zxvf nms-dependencies-rhel7.tar.gz
sudo yum install *.rpm
After installation you can start nginx using systemctl:
sudo systemctl start clickhouse-server
sudo systemctl start nginx
Your nginx service must be running now!
you can download tar file in another system and copy

I'm trying to build an rpm from source-1.4.3-linux.tgz (that is downloaded so I don't control the name) and the file untars into the directory source-1.4.3-linux. In my source.spec file, I have
Name: source
Version: 1.4.3
So it is probably quite logical that I am getting an error:
cd: source-1.4.3: No such file or directory.
I tried tacking -linux onto the version, but rpmbuild wants only a number there. What do I have to do to tell rpmbuild that the source files are untarred into source-1.4.3-linux?
Just use the setup macro.
setup -n %{name}-%{version}.linux
Here is a simple.spec file that would help you understand the issue. Source tarball contains the following:
$ tar tzf simple-0.tar.gz
simple-0/
simple-0/simple.txt
Spec file:

ok I got this working. Maybe a hack but it is working. As per the question my tarball is unconventionally named.
$ tar tzf source-1.4.3-linux-amd64.tar.gz
source-1.4.3-linux-amd64/
source-1.4.3-linux-amd64/simple.txt
in the specfile %prep section instead of using %setup or %autosetup, I unpacked manually and renamed the untarred directory.

Getting below error during platform installation:
"Required libaio package is not found. ..."
However, above package is already installed:
rpm -q libaio
libaio-0.3.107-10.el6.x86_64
Here is output from the installation script:

I got this too... I was running from command-line as a non-root user:

I added the shell expand(-x) switch and log to the command(s) like so:
bash -x ./platform-setup-x64-linux-4.4.3.10393.sh -q -varfile /appd/home/Install/response.varfile > install.log 2>&1
If we tail the last bit of that log you get, this response in debug mode:
Verifying if the libaio package is installed. /opt/appdynamics/platform/installer/checkLibaio.sh
Required libaio package is not found. For instructions on installing
the missing package, refer to https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO44/Enterprise+Console+Requirements
and the script checkLibaio.sh isn't left there... so you cannot figure it out easily. I also have a RedHat variant with the packages installed:
rpm -qa | grep libaio
libaio-0.3.109-13.el7.x86_64
Strangely enough I have one VM from the same image that will install the distribution just fine, and one that will not, so on the broken install (where I really want to install this). I ran another command from the expanded view of the install.log, which was a really long JVM command line. Anyways I got it to work and then made a looping script to retrieve the file (Because AppD for some reason removes the check script before you can look at it). The script is as follows:
#!/bin/sh
# Script used to check if the machine has libaio on it or not.
cat /dev/null > /opt/appdynamics/platform/installer/.libaio_status
chmod 777 /opt/appdynamics/platform/installer/.libaio_status
# Check if the dpkg or rpm command exists before running it.
command -v dpkg >/dev/null 2>&1
OUT=$?
if [ $OUT -eq 0 ];
then
if [ `dpkg -l | grep -i libaio* | wc -l` -gt 0 ];
then
echo SUCCESS >> /opt/appdynamics/platform/installer/.libaio_status
exit 0
fi
else
command -v rpm >/dev/null 2>&1
OUT=$?
if [ $OUT -eq 0 ];
then
if [ `rpm -qa | grep -i libaio* | wc -l` -gt 0 ];
then
echo SUCCESS >> /opt/appdynamics/platform/installer/.libaio_status
exit 0
fi
fi
fi
echo FAILURE >> /opt/appdynamics/platform/installer/.libaio_status
exit 1
I you run this script like me on the faulty platform what you will discover is that your version of Linux has both:
dpkg
and
rpm
installed. To work around this you should temporarily make a name change to one of these two package manager executables so it cannot be found (by your shell environment).
Most common here will be that you are running a RedHat variant where someone chose to install dpkg (For who knows what reason). If so desired remove that package and the install should be successful.

I am trying to create my own RPM package, and here's the SPEC file, it works properly when install(rpm -ivh app-2.1-6.el6.x86_64.rpm), or upgrade(rpm -Uvh app-2.1-7.el6.x86_64.rpm) or remove (rpm -e app-2.1-7.el6.x86_64.rpm)
For RPM package app-2.1-7.el6.x86_64.rpm, the version is 2.1 and release number is 7.
My question is, no matter how I modify the release number, install/upgrade/remove are working properly, but if I modify the version number to 2.2 or 3.2, the previous version folder(/opt/app-2.1) will not be deleted, can anyone help me, how should I delete the previous version folder(/opt/app-2.1) when I update(-Uvh) the RPM package?
The problem is that your package doesn't "own"
the directory /opt/2.1 directory.
Just like tar, rpm will create all "missing" directories
in order to install content on a path.
But on erase, rpm will only remove directories that are
mentioned explicitly in the %files manifest.
Short answer:
If you want rpm --erase to remove a directory path,
the mention in %files.
Shorter anser:
Add
%dir /opt/app-%{version}
to %files. If the directory is empty (i.e. all other files
in /opt/app-%{version} are "owned" and can be removed), the
the "owned /opt/app=%{version} will be removed as well.
I'm trying to build my first RPM, but getting an error. My .rpmmarcos files looks like this:

I'm guessing rpmbuild does the "rm -rf 'test-1'" to remove any old/un-needed directories, then it untar's the test-1.c55.tar.gz file, then tries to "cd test-1" but the untar command doesn't make the directory so the scripts errors out. I'm not sure what to do now.

RPM (or, to be exact, %setup macro) expects your source tarbal test-1.c55.... to contain the directory test-1.
If the directory there is different, you can fix that by using
%setup -n yourdir
See http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/s1-rpm-inside-macros.html for more details.
