swinstall problem

[Jun Zhang_4]

The command I used is,
swinstall -s /path/AP014 Authen-PAM
where AP014 is a bundle created with,
swpackage -s authen.psf @ /path/AP014
within the authen.psf, a postinstall script is with the following content,
PATH=${SW_PATH}:/usr/bin:/opt/perl/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/contrib/bin
export PATH
cd /usr/local
gunzip -c Authen-PAM-0.14.tar.gz | tar xvf -
cd Authen-PAM-0.14
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
The swinstall error message is listed bellow.
The first line listed is the result of the command,
perl Makefile.PL
so perl is found and is being used until that line, and then it no longer being located, otherwise, the "0" should be "perl". The strange thing is that perl is really under /opt/perl/bin. The program looked, but didn't see.

Hi -

You trying to compile something thru swinstall. It is not going to work. Make/Configure etc have lots of enviroment variables in place, which probably is not set in your system. Hence the make and the perl module is going to fail. If you really want to make this product this is how you have to proceed.

# configure; make ; make test; make install
# create product.psf ( put all the diretcories files executables etc )
# swpackage -p -vv -s product.psf @ /depot/your_product
#swreg -l depot @ /depot/your_product

#swinstall -s /depot/your_product

And it will work. Please do not include make/make install inside your post-installscript, it is going to fail.

Thanks
