[HELP]about non-interactive swinstall[HELP]

[zhangr_2]

When I run command like below:
/usr/sbin/swinstall -x mount_all_filesystems=false -x match_target=true -x autoreboot=true -s /opt/nmp/setups/rzhangtmp/zlib-1.1.4-hpux

I always got ERROR MESSAGE like:

======= 03/24/03 11:32:15 EAT BEGIN swinstall SESSION
(non-interactive)

* Session started for user "root@beeda14".

* Beginning Selection
* Target connection succeeded for "beeda14:/".
NOTE: The match operation failed to find software in the source that
matches software on the target.
NOTE: Cannot continue the "swinstall" task.

But If I use the interactive way to install the zlib everything is ok.command like below:
swinstall -s /opt/nmp/setups/rzhangtmp/zlib-1.1.4-hpux

I don't know why the swinstall can't find the software in non-interactive way.but can find the software in interactive way.

Hello

swinstall -s s /opt/nmp/setups/rzhangtmp/zlib-1.1.4-hpux - mount_all_filesystems=false -x
match_target=true -x autoreboot=true

Try adding "\*" to the source.

e.g.

# swinstall -s /opt/nmp/setups/rzhangtmp/zlib-1.1.4-hpux -x mount_all_filesystems=false -x match_target=true -x autoreboot=true \*

Hi,

Also this should do it in none interactive mode:

#swinstall -s /opt/nmp/setups/rzhangtmp/zlib-1.1.4-hpux \*

Thanks and good luck.

adding "\*" to the source is work!
Thanks for all of yours help!
Have a nice day!

what is the \* mean?
thanks!

BTW:
swinstall -s /opt/nmp/setups/rzhangtmp/zlib-1.1.4-hpux -x mount_all_filesystems=false -x match_target=true -x autoreboot=true
is not work!

\* means "select all depot files"!

Hello again,

This will tell you what does "\*" mean:

#man swinstall|grep \*

Also, it'll be more thanksful if you assign points.
Thanks again.
