Sam skips files due to remote file system

[John Sherman_1]

I am trying to install a gcc binary on my HPUX 11.00 system using SAM. I get over 500 warnings (example below)and none of the files are copied to the machine.

WARNING: Skipping file "/usr/local/lib/libstdc++.sl.5.0" because it is on a remote file system.

Does anyone know why I am getting this message and how to "fix" it.


Thanks,

You are actually installing the software through 'swinstall'. The error messages indicate that the file(s) that it is looking for are on an NFS filesystem. If you were to have these files on a normally mounted filesystem you may be okay.

What is the binary your trying to install?
