Change your command to;

swinstall -s ./lsof-4.61-sd-10.20.depot \*

Then it will work.

Hi,

Try using the full path name of where you have the depot file. If this doesn't work, you can try and using the interactive part of 'swinstall'. The full path should work though.

# swinstall -s /tmp/lsof-4.61-sd-10.20.depot

Youve got to add the path to the lsof bin directory to your /etc/PATH file and your /etc/MANPATH files.

eg. if lsof is installed into;
/opt/lsof/bin

Then add to /etc/PATH
:/opt/lsof/bin

and to /etc/MANPATH
:/opt/lsof/man

Then logout and in again, now its always in your path.

Try running the program with the full path. You will find that /opt/lsof is not in your default path.

If the program has not installed properly Check the output of the /var/adm/swinstall.log files, and the other logs swagent etc

All setting is OK, sorry for my stupid question.

Re: install depot

O'lnes — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 07:26:30 GMT

There is still a problem, cos the /var is full, so when running lsof , it pop up the message "failed Disk Space Analysis " , but i can't remove any file from /var, do you hv any suggestion?

Re: install depot

Stefan Farrelly — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 07:35:47 GMT

Try removing some temporary files from /var/tmp - simply rm -rf /var/tmp/*

This should free up some space. If you need to free up some more space how big is the directory /var/adm/sw/save ? (du -sk /var/adm/sw/save)

Re: install depot

O'lnes — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 07:41:48 GMT

about 250M in /var/adm/sw/save.

Re: install depot

O'lnes — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 07:42:52 GMT

Can all files in /var/tmp be remove?

Andy.

Re: install depot

Stefan Farrelly — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 07:48:27 GMT

You should be able to remove all in /var/tmp.

Youve got a lot of space in /var/adm/sw/save, you can free it up by commiting superceeded patches with this command;

swmodify -x patch_commit=true \*

(Ignore any errors when it runs)

Re: install depot

O'lnes — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 07:58:30 GMT

after run your command "swmodify -x patch_commit=true \* " , these is a error.

the error is :

# # swmodify -x patch_commit=true \*
# ERROR: Cannot lock "/" because another command holds a conflicting
sh: ERROR:: not found.
#
# lock. The process id of that command is 22544.
sh: lock.: not found.
# ERROR: Cannot read the target "/".
sh: ERROR:: not found.

how to solve?

Sounds like another process is doing an SD command, the pid number is listed. What process is it ? (ps -lfp )

You can try killing it then rerun the swmodify command.

I hv already install the depot, but it pop up :
"lsof: FATAL: lsof was built for a 32 bit kernel, but this is a 64 bit kernel. ",
what i download was for ver 11, but still not work ,where can i get the 64 bit version?

Andy.

Re: install depot

Stefan Farrelly — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 09:02:39 GMT

Attached is a gzip copy of a static lsof 64 bit. Just unzip, put in /opt/lsof/bin, rename to lsof (remove old lsof).

Re: install depot

Stefan Farrelly — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 09:03:52 GMT

Andy - im not sure the attachment is downloadable - I get an error. Email me at;
stefan_farrelly@ipcmedia.com

And i will email you back lsof precompiled for 64bit.

Stefan Farrelly — Mon, 24 Jun 2002 12:27:10 GMT

Andy,

I cant mail back to you, your mailbox is full! Free up some space and let me know so I can retry sending you lsof.64bit
