Error swinstall

[file system]

Hi all experts.
I have question about install package.

when i execute command 'swinstall -s /AbsolutePATH/package_name

it displays Error like this..

[root@mafweb1:/web1_backup] swinstall -s /web1_backup/package_name
NOTE: The interactive UI was invoked, since no software was
specified.

ERROR: Either Graphic User Interface(GUI) or Terminal User
Interface(TUI) cannot be started. In order to execute this
command, you have to modify your DISPLAY or use English
version TUI with LANG="" or LANG=C.

Why it cannot execute?
can you tell me?
How can I succeed to install.

If you don't want to do an interactive swinstall, you can just add "\*" to the end:
# swinstall -s /AbsolutePATH/package_name \*

This will install everything that "matches" in the depot.

>Why it cannot execute?

From the error message, you haven't exported DISPLAY (graphical) or you have LANG set to something other than American Nerd (TUI).

coul you tell the output of

uname -a
model
echo $LANG

what is the "cumulative SAM patch" version you have?

[file system]

[root@mafweb1:/web1_backup] uname -a
HP-UX MAFweb1 B.11.23 U ia64 0611614471

[root@mafweb1:/web1_backup] swlist -l patch|grep -i cum|grep -i sam
# CIFS-Server.CIFS-DOC A.02.01.02 Samba Documentation (original)
# PHCO_31926 1.0 cumulative SAM patch
Platform info:
model string = "ia64 hp server rx4640"

SO, How can I install?
# swinstall -s /AbsolutePATH/package_name \*
it only logs analysis..
what should I do to install?

[Dennis Handly]

# swinstall -s /AbsolutePATH/package_name \*
>it only logs analysis..

This should install everything that wasn't already installed. What did swinstall say?

[file system]

[root@mafweb1:/] swinstall

You said this. What was the output?

[file system]

[root@mafweb1:/] swinstall -s /web1_backup/NetWorker.pkg
NOTE: The interactive UI was invoked, since no software was
specified.

As mentioned several times you need to add \* to the end.

Thanks Dennis handy but
Read the thread 'how to set locale to C'

After the action,
It works fine.
Thank you

I think the problem is referred to locale

>Read the thread 'how to set locale to C'

Yes, I saw that but you never said you wanted to use the interactive swinstall.

And I assumed you knew how to set the LANG to C and that you could use the locale(1) command to see what the current locale was.
