Hi,

unzip the file
#gunzip

and tell us the file format (depot or tar or cpio ...)

[Paul Sperry]

First of all you need to have gcc version 3.2 installed

/usr/contrib/bin/gunzip cvs-1.11.5-ss-11.00.tar.gz

tar -xvf cvs-1.11.5-ss-11.00.tar

cd cvs-1.11.5

Run "configure" to generate the Makefiles

Run "gmake" in the top level dir.

Use "gmake -n install" to check the defaults, then "make install



To Test:
=========
export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome'
cvs login
cvs -z3 checkout -r gnome-libs-1-0 -d gnome-libs-stable gnome-libs

Hi,

Thanks for the info...

Can I download the HPUX 11.00 gcc3.2 from hpux.cs.utah.edu archive ??

TIA
DD

[Paul Sperry]

yes
http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gcc-3.2/

gcc-3.2
Gnu C, C++ and Fortran compilers and binutils. This is a combination of GNU's gcc-core, gcc-g++, gcc-g77 and binutils source packages, but with the non-HP-UX source code removed to reduce the overall size of the download. Compulsory pre-requisites for building or running this package now include GNU make, GNU bison and GNU flex. If you are you using an IPF platform, please build and/or install the gccipf package instead - this gcc package will NOT work on the IPF platform.

Author: Cygnus Development Team
Home: http://gcc.gnu.org/
Installation Tree: /usr/local
Dependencies: bison flex make
Other Versions: 3.1

From www.cvshome.com, you can download the pre-compiled binary. No need to gcc anything that way.

The same binary should work in HP-UX 11.x just as it does in version 10.20.

Shannon

[daredevil]

hi,

after I gunzip -d it become .depot
but when I try to swinstall -s it returm error..
Could not contact host "gcc-3.2-sd-11.00.depot". makesure the hostname is correct

What should I do now ...

TIA
DD

[Paul Sperry]

swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true -s gcc***.depot

[daredevil]

ok .

I'll follow Shahnon's way ..so I just download the HPUX 10.20 zip file (does it contain the binary & install file in it ???)

this is the website http://www.cvshome.org/dev/codeunix.html

and what next...

I have to run the configure command ??

TIA
DD

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

Precompiled binaries for 10.20, including a complete gcc-3 is available on my ITRC site HTTPS://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/ or http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/

Enjoy, have FUN! H.Merijn

[Shannon Petry]

If you read the binary install instructions from www.cvshome.com, you will see that you only need to copy the file to /usr/bin and make sure that permissions are r-xr-xr-x.

Regards,
Shannon

[daredevil]

ok,


I have run the

1. gzip -d
2. tar -xvf
3. mv cvs /usr/bin

is this correct ??
what next... run the configure or make file


TIA
DD

[Shannon Petry]

No configure or make. It is a pre-compiled binary ready to run. Just type

% cvs

configure and make are used to build binary files.

Regards,
Shannon

[daredevil]

hi,


tried to do
cvs init
but it shows not found ??

TIA
DD

[Paul Sperry]

Shahnon's way
go to
http://www.cvshome.org/dev/codeunix.html
click on the 10.20 link
Unix: HP HP-UX B.10.20 A
that will start the download of this file.
download cvs-1.11.5-HP.gz
/usr/contrib/bin/gunzip cvs-1.11.5-HP.gz
chmod 555 cvs-1.11.5-HP
mv cvs-1.11.5-HP /usr/bin/cvs
your done!

[Paul Sperry]

Did you rename cvs-1.11.5-HP to cvs?

Also check your $PATH

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin

then try your cvs command again.

[Shannon Petry]

Okay, lets start from the beginning.


the file downloaded from cvshome.com is NOT a tar file, just a compressed binary.

So, download this file and save it somewhere on disk. Lets assume it's /tmp/cvs-1.11.5-HP.gz.

%=shell prompt commands so ignore this, but here are the remaining steps to install cvs.

% gzip -d /tmp/cvs-1.11.5-HP.gz
% mv /tmp/cvs-1.11.5-HP /usr/bin/cvs
% chmod 555 /usr/bin/cvs


This is all you have to do to have cvs up and running.

Now..... If your runing cshell, it will cache binary data. Just type:

% rehash

Which causes cshell to reload the cache. All other shells search the path every time an executable is loaded.

NOTE: If you do not have /usr/bin in your path, then your in trouble. Check your path with:

% echo $PATH

Make sure that /usr/bin is in the path.

Shannon

Hi,

I have

1. renamed the file name to cvs
2. chmod 555 cvs
3. export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin


but when I try to run
cvs init
now I get execute permission denied


TIA
SRI

[Paul Sperry]

try

chown bin /usr/bin/cvs
chgrp bin /usr/bin/cvs
cd /usr/cvs
./cvs init

[daredevil]

Hi,

# ll cvs
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 2494792 Mar 7 02:52 cvs

I have change the owner and group but still get the same error

# cvs
sh: cvs: Execute permission denied.

or

# ./cvs
sh: ./cvs: Execute permission denied.


TIA

[Shannon Petry]

What do you get if you type:

% file /usr/bin/cvs



?

Shannon

[daredevil]

Hi,

I get

file /usr/bin/cvs
/usr/bin/cvs: PA-RISC2.0 shared executable dynamically linked -not stripped

TIA
SRI

[Shannon Petry]

Try to type in the full path to the binary then.

% /usr/bin/cvs

It sounds like /usr/bin is NOT in your path, which is a bigger problem than not being able to run cvs.

You can try to do this:

cp -p /etc/skel/.profile $HOME
cp -p /etc/skel/.login $HOME
cp -p /etc/skel/.cshrc $HOME

Then log out and back in again.

Try again to run just
% cvs

if it still requires a full path to the binary
% /usr/bin/cvs

Other issues are present. Such as...

Are you absolutely posotive this is 10.20?

% uname -a

produces what output?

% echo $PATH

produces what output?

Regards,
Shannon

[daredevil]

uname -a
