Re: How to install Expect 5.43.0 for HPUX

Hi Binu,

What's the format of the installation file ?

If .gz, you need to unzip first :

# gunzip expect-5.43.0.tar.gz

If .tar format, you need to extract the command :

# tar xvf expect-5.43.0.tar

If .depot format, you need to use swinstall command to install the software to your system.

NOTE :
======
But the first thing you need to do is read the README file, usually it will explain about how to install the software.

Hope this information can help you.

Cheers,
AW

Re: How to install Expect 5.43.0 for HPUX

I had an issue recently with this download, in that it did not have the binary file in the package. Also experienced that same issu with ssh as well. The only work around I had was to copy an existing version that worked.
Sorry can't be much help, but that could be your problem.

I had the same problem with the 11.23 version -- no binary.
However, it looks like they have fixed it -- the latest archive date being 2005/06/15. Both 11.11 and 11.23 appear to have the binary, now.
