Unable to install Acrobat Reader for HPUX

[Paul J. Ledbetter, II]

I downloaded Acrobat Reader 5.08 for UNIX. It provided the following files:

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 2489856 Jun 9 17:35 COMMON.TAR
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 49037312 Jun 9 17:35 HPUXRDR.TAR
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 14273 Jun 9 17:35 INSTALL
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 22848 Jun 9 17:35 LICREAD.TXT
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 125 Jun 9 17:35 MANIFEST
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 22854 Jun 9 17:35 README

When I tried ./INSTALL, it gave me the following message:

# ./INSTALL
interpreter "/bin/sh" not found
file link resolves to "/usr/bin/sh"
sh: ./INSTALL: not found.
#

Can anyone help?

[Mel Burslan]

edit INSTALL file
and change the first line from

#!/bin/sh

to

#!/usr/bin/sh

this should help.

[Paul J. Ledbetter, II]

Nope: I get the same:

# ./INSTALL
interpreter "/usr/bin/sh" not found
sh: ./INSTALL: not found.

I even verified the existence of /usr/bin/sh:
# ll /usr/bin/sh
-r-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 208896 Feb 11 2003 /usr/bin/sh

Hi,

sh INSTALL

Rgds.

[Paul J. Ledbetter, II]

Jose,
Once I got rid of the extraneous "^M"s, your advice did the trick.

Thanks!

[Jose Mosquera]

Hi,

Glad to help you pal.

Paul,

apparently you ftp-ed the files in ASCII mode from Windows to Unix. You should use BINARY mode.

JP.

[Jeroen Peereboom]

Ohoh, I meant the other way around?!
