execute permission denied

[Karl Haynes]

I am trying to install DB2 for UDB on my HP9000 box. When I issue the ./db2setup command, I get the following:

# ./db2setup
./db2setup[20]: /karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install/../bin/db2langdir: Ex
ecute permission denied.
./db2setup[43]: /karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install/../bin/db2langdir: Ex
ecute permission denied.
./db2setup[8]: /karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install/../bin/disp_msg: Execu
te permission denied.
#

I look in the db2setup.err file and see the following:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install/libdb2ure.sl: Exec format error

I try to check load lib dependencies and get the following:

# ldd -s libdb2ure.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Bad system id for shared library: libdb2ure.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Exec format error
# pwd
/karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install

I went ahead and checked file versions for both my HP9000 box and the file in question and received the following:

# file /stand/vmunix
/stand/vmunix: PA-RISC1.1 executable -not stripped
#

# file /karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install/libdb2ure.sl
/karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install/libdb2ure.sl: PA-RISC2.0 share
d library -not stripped
#

If the versions are different, what recourse do I have ?

# file /stand/vmunix
/stand/vmunix: PA-RISC1.1 executable -not stripped

looks like you have a 32bit hpux, maybe on 10.20, and you are attempting to install a hpux 64bit version (/karl/008_ESE_HP_3264_NLV/db2/hpux/install/libdb2ure.sl: PA-RISC2.0 share
d library -not stripped )


i suggest you to:
- check os
uname -a
- check the label on the cd of install

1) check ownership on the executables mentioned in the error message

2) make sure you are the owner of those files

3) chmod u+x executable_name if something is wrong.

Other issue:

SHLIB_PATH is not set correctly.

I will need to check again to see the CD version....i.e. 32 bit vs. 64-bit.

I beleive it is 32-bit but not sure.

I just found the answer that "I was not looking for".... :(

4d) Installation requirements for DB2 servers (HP-UX)

This topic lists hardware, operating system, software and communication
requirements for DB2 servers (HP-UX).

Hardware requirements
HP 9000 series 700 or 800 system

Operating system requirements
DB2 Workgroup Server Edition and DB2 Enterprise Server Edition
can run on HP-UX 11i (11.11) for PA-RISC 2 with:
* December 2001 GOLDBASE11i bundle
* December 2001 GOLDAPPS11i bundle
* patch PHSS_26560

Since my machine is an HP900/D250 using PS_RISC 1.1, I am "out of luck" as the saying goes.............
