Swinstall errors

[Anand V]

Dear Admins,

I am trying to install a networker pakage which is the backup software for Hp-Platforms.

In Bash I had given the following command.

#swinstall -s /oracle/QAS/saparch/emc/NetWorker.pkg

I am getting the following erros:

"APSAPSIT:/oracle/QAS/saparch/emc/NetWorker.pkg": You do not have the required permissions to perform this operation. Check permissions using the "swacl" command or see your system administrator for assistance. Or, to manage applications designed and packaged for nonprivileged mode, see the "run_as_superuser" option in the "sd" man page.


Pls kindly help me to solve this as soon as possible.


Thanks in Advance,

Anand

Many swinstall errors can be cleared by restarting the swagentd daemon:

swagentd -r

Then try your swinstall again.

Another option is to make sure your name resolution is working properly. I've seen alot of problems with swinstall as a result of name resolution not being set up correctly.

Hi,

Bash is not the default root shell for hpux, use the /sbin/sh posix shell as default.

# /usr/sbin/swlist -s /oracle/QAS/saparch/emc/NetWorker.pkg

does it list the NetWorker modules?

# /usr/sbin/swinstall -s /oracle/QAS/saparch/emc/NetWorker.pkg
