Changing target directory installing a product

[Steven E. Protter]

Okay,

with swremove if I change targets i can remove the software.

I don't think doing an install with target / will hurt the older javas. When I installed 1.4 on my sandbox at work it automatically installed into /opt/java1.4 and didn't stop oracle operations. I had to remove it because it broke my browser at the time, which was mozilla 1.2.1

I'll leave this software installed until I hear from you that you are satisfied with what I did.

I hope this was useful for you.

Hi SEP,

At least you duplicated my problem, which is good. As far as getting rid of it, simply:

# rm -rf /opt/java1.4
and if you wish re-install yhou can without changing the target the same as me, which seems to work fine.
Thanks for trying, perhaps I'll log a software call with HP tomorrow and give them this thread as a link.

Thanks and Cheers
Michael

I can get rid of it with swremove. Thanks. Glad to help.

Please share the resolution on the call.

Hi SEP,

There is a resolution, and I have it buried in my email somewhere. I apologise for not getting back to this sooner (thanks for the reminder) but I have a rather large Informix to Oracle conversion on my plate that I cannot let out of my sight. I shall endeavour to get to it early next week.

Cheers & thanks for the effort! (avagoodweekend)
