I have install HPUX 11.23 the server is not on the network but I did specify a hostname during the installation
I have
127.0.0.1 localhost loopback
in my host file
but it is looking for the hostname I gave to the server on installation.
Is there a quick way round this issue so its not looking at the hostname??
Thanks

Re: swinstall cannot connect to host..
If not, you should use
# set_parms initial
to configure your server.
Because all sw tools are client/server, they (normally) need the network, even locally.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: swinstall cannot connect to host..
Meanwhile you may try to replace localhost by your hostname in /etc/hosts
# /usr/sbin/swagentd ├в r
Don't forget to reverse this change later!
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: swinstall cannot connect to host..
I would try "set_parms hostname" and then check if it is updated in the /etc/hosts file.
Good luck

Re: swinstall cannot connect to host..
Please do the following
Mention any hostname temporarily
# hostname
# uname -S
# cp /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.org
# mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.org (move!)
vi the /etc/hosts and replace the localhost entry by the actual hostname:
127.0.0.1 hostname loopback
(Re-)start the swagentd:
# /usr/sbin/swagentd ├в r
Then use swinstall with the use_alternate_source=true option:
# swinstall ├в x use_alternate_source=true ...
Good luck! Don├В┬┤t forget to move the hosts.orig and resolv.conf.orig files back
