install sudo

[Martin Christov]

Hello friends,

after downloading sudo from HP-UX-Porting-Center with all runtime dependencies and installing it on a fresh ia64 box under HPUX-11.23V2 I am not able to activate/use it. I get following errormessage if I try to configure sudoers:
otto:/var/adm/sw root$visudo
/usr/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unable to find library '/usr/local/lib/hpux32/libdb.so'.
Killed
otto:/var/adm/sw root$echo $?
137
otto:/var/adm/sw root$uname -a
HP-UX otto B.11.23 U ia64 2192808946 unlimited-user license
otto:/var/adm/sw root$


Following filesets are installed:
swlist|tail -20
...
bison 2.1 bison
flex 2.5.4a flex
gettext 0.14.5 gettext
heimdal 0.7.2 heimdal
libgcc 4.1.0 libgcc
libiconv 1.10 libiconv
m4 1.4.4 m4
openssl 0.9.8a openssl
readline 5.1 readline
sudo 1.6.8p12 sudo
otto:/var/adm/sw root$

Does somebody experienced similar problems with sudo on ia64/HPUX-11.23V2?

Kind regards:
Martin

Shalom Martin,

Couple of things.

The Q&A on the archive and porting center has been spotty.

I believe you would do better using a sudo that HP has already tested. Go to http://sofware.hp.com

Search for sudo

Choose the Itanium version and take sudo from there.

The results are likely to be better.

The error message you got indicates SHLIB_PATH needs to be set prior to installation to include the directory its complaining about.

In addition to that most of the porting center sudo versions have an error concerning the suid on the binary at install time. The fix for that is to set suid on the binary and re-install.
