swinstall fail to install sw

[Pablo Loras Garcia]

hello,
when attempt to install compiler GCC, utilitarian swinstall throws the following message to me:

pvcshp:/pvcsrep/tmp/gcc_3.4.1_hppa-hp-hpux11.11_depot": You do not
have the required permissions to perform this operation. Check
permissions using the "swacl" command or see your system
administrator for assistance. Or, to manage applications designed
and packaged for nonprivileged mode, see the "run_as_superuser"
option in the "sd" man page.
As it is the cause? as I can solve this? thanks,

Jorge Prado

You have to install software (depots) using swinstall as root. Exactly what is your command line string, or did you use the swinstall TUI?

You may have to restart the swagentd anyway.

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start

Hi

run the command

#/usr/sbin/swagentd -r ( as root)
and install the gcc as root.

only the root will be having authority to do installation ( unless given the permission using sudo to other users).
