My application (which is a simple Swing application) is installer.tar.gz

installer.spec
---------------
Name: installer
Summary:  The foo package does foo
Version :1
Release: 1
License: GPL
Group: Applications/Internet
URL: http://www.example.org/
Source0: %{name}.tar.gz
Buildroot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-root

%description 
This package performs the foo operation.
%prep 
%setup -q

%build 
%confifure

make

%install 
rm -fr %{buildroot}

%makeinstall

%clean 
rm -fr %{buildroot}
%changelog

If I run rpmbuild -ba ~/rpm/SPECS/installer.spec then i found "No file or directory found error"

Thanks Sunil KUmar Sahoo

Answer 1

Have you created the SPEC file for your package?

It should be there before you call rpmdev-setuptree and rpmbuild -bb --clean myprogram.spec

You can read more about SPEC files and rpm building in Fedora Developer's Guide.
