swinstall specify source screen not appearing

[John E. Goetz]

When I run swinstall, the Specify Source screen does not appear. It comes back with a screen with the hostname and type instead.

Try specifying the source on the command line:

swinstall -s /tmp/source_depot.name

Hi,

To install all software selections within a depot:
# swinstall -s /path/to/your.depot \*

John,

/sbin/init.d/swagend stop
/sbin/init.d/swagend start

and/or

Register the source:
swreg -l depot -s package.depot

Hi:

Make sure that your hostname is reflected in '/etc/hosts' and in '/etc/rc.config.d/netconf' accurately. In the 'netconf' file make sure too that:

OPERATING_SYSTEM=HP-UX

Try restarting the 'swagentd' daemon:

# /usr/sbin/swagentd -r

Regards!

The problem was that a file called .sdkey was in /var/adm/sw. I removed this file and my screen now appears. Thanks for your responses.
