Error using swinstall?

[Jeddel Yeras]

Hi Folks,

swinstall gives me an error message when I point to the depot indicating that I do not have sufficient rights to install these. I'm not sure how to get around this since I am logging in as root.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

Have you registered the depot?

# swreg -l depot

Can you post the error message?

Sometimes root doesn't have enough rights.

I've tried the prior suggestion and succeeded with depot that refused to install with what I think your error message was.

If it is the error message I'm thinking of with 'swacl' then I have seen this a few times. One of suggestions I have is that the IP address or the hostname may have changed. PLease check your DNS as well.

Make sure that you retstart the 'swagentd' daemon as well.

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start

Thanks guys!

Restarting the swagent did the trick!
