Bash for HP-UX 11.23 IA64

[CharliePuyol]

I got an IA64 with HP-UX 11.23 and I want bash on it, I just downloaded from: http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Shells/bash-3.2/ but it doesn't work.

Can somebody tell me how it works or give me a bash for 11.23 that works?

Thanks! Charlie Puyol!

Could you define "doesn't work" a little better. What tells you it "doesn't work"? Are you getting an error message of some sort?

Did you install all the dependencies? gettext libiconv termcap

I mean that I installed all the prerequisites and it doesn't work, In 11.11, i downloaded from the same page, and when i type bash, it works. In 11.23 it doesn't work

Hi Charlie:

> In 11.11, i downloaded from the same page, and when i type bash, it works. In 11.23 it doesn't work

So, what happens? Do you get any message? Do you get a core file (look in your current directory)? Can you see a 'bash' subshell spawned?

Regards!
