swinstall fails with no compatible products error

[Mark_P]

I am tring to install some software on my HP-UX 11.11 workstation and I am receiving errors about not finding any products that are compatible with the destination.

I have tried several products but I receive the same error every time.

Here is the command and response I am receiving.

# swinstall -s /var/tmp/openssl-0.9.8e-hppa-11.11.depot \*

======= 09/10/07 10:07:32 EDT BEGIN swinstall SESSION
(non-interactive) (jobid=WRKSTN1-0040)

* Session started for user "root@WRKSTN1".

* Beginning Selection
* Target connection succeeded for "WRKSTN1:/".
ERROR: Could not apply the software selection "*" because there are
no product variations that are compatible with the destination
host(s).
* Software selection failed for
"WRKSTN1:/var/tmp/openssl-0.9.8e-hppa-11.11.depot".
ERROR: No software has been selected.
ERROR: Cannot continue the "swinstall" task.
* Selection had errors.



======= 09/10/07 10:07:33 EDT END swinstall SESSION (non-interactive)
(jobid=WRKSTN1-0040)

I have tried restarting swagentd and I still get the same response.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Shalom,

Check the site you downloaded it from.

It would seem you are missing either a pre-requisite or a product such as httpd server that openssl is supposed to work with.

Or you are wrong about the host operating system, and you seem pretty sure about that.

Maybe this version is not supported for workstations. See matrix - http://www.hp.com/softwarereleases/releases-media2/latest/06_07/06_07_wkstsm.htm

Check release notes for version also.

Did you get the software from here:

http://hpux.asknet.de/hppd/hpux/Languages/openssl-0.9.8e/

All depots are made for PA-RISC 2.0.

What workstation system you have?

Older models have PA-RISC 1.1 chips only and cannot run 2.0 applications.

You can download the source and compile or have a look at this:

To check the CPU version, run SAM -> Performance monitors -> System Properties

My old WS is showing

CPU Version: 1.1e PA7300
Clock Frequency: 180 MHz

This is PA-RISC 1.1

uname -r reports B.11.11

You are correct about the version so I must apoligize for using a bad example. I am also receiving the same error when trying to install FireFox 1508 and GTK 2.6.8.00.

Thanks I hadn't considered that, here is my info

Workstation J6750
CPU Version PA 8700-8700 CPU 3.1

[Torsten.]

Did you try the interactive version?

Consider a broken download.
I would download again. If you ftp the depot from a win$ system, make sure mode is set to bin.

Review the swagentd.log file for error details too.

I am closing this thread as I just got assigned to a project at another site for a couple of months. I will be unable to work on this issue until I come back and I will post a new thread then.

I would like to thank everyone for their time and suggestions.
