Hello everyone,

I have HP-UX 11i v2, i have installed HP gdb 5.6.0 version, now i have been asked to link :

/usr/ccs/bin/gdb32
/usr/ccs/bin/gdb64 to /opt/langtools/bin/gdb.

but unfortunately i couldn't find /opt/langtools directory exist.

what is your advice...

Why? Did you install PHSS_35386? (The latest patch is PHSS_40831.)
The latest is 6.1: http://www.hp.com/go/wdb

>I have been asked to link:

What was the reason? Are you debugging with Aries? The above patches will install those files in /usr/ccs/bin on Integrity.
What does "uname -a" show?

>I couldn't find /opt/langtools directory exist.

If you have installed WDB bundle, then /opt/langtools/ should exist.

Download and install the latest wdb-6.1 depot from
http://h21007.www2.hp.com/portal/site/dspp/menuitem.863c3e4cbcdc3f3515b49c108973a801/?ciid=cb080f1bace021100f1bace02110275d6e10RCRD
This will install the wdb in /opt/langtools/bin

Then, if you are debugging PA-RISC appliacation on IPF machine, install the latest patches http://h21007.www2.hp.com/portal/site/dspp/menuitem.863c3e4cbcdc3f3515b49c108973a801/?ciid=e25a9c8defaa3110VgnVCM100000275d6e10RCRD

this will install PA-RISC wdb in /usr/ccs/bin
