Failure swinstall

Ralf Buchhold — Wed, 04 Aug 2004 07:15:20 GMT

Hello
I canÂ´t install:
swinstall -f /tmp/DP_A0500_UX11x.sd_depot
because of the following error:
ERROR: Could not read input file
"/cdrom/DP-DEPOT/DP_A0500_UX11x.sd_depot".
ERROR: Command line parsing failed.
But I can copy the file. no i/o error !
Thanks
Ra

You need to use an "-s" and not "-f" to specify the source...

swinstall -s /tmp/DP_A0500_UX11x.sd_depot

Hope this helps,

Ralph,

Did you really use "-f"? I think what you meant to do was "-s".

It's a sintax error. Change "-f" by "-s" like this:

swinstall -s /tmp/DP_A0500_UX11x.sd_depot
