hello
i have a very annoying problem
i want to do a clean install of ingres 2.0 on a Teamserver
Fujitsu (ICL) the good ingres.tar is on the cd 3
i do exactly everything written in the manual but i always get the same
error,
i have set the ingres admin account create II_SYSTEM variable
put the ingres bin and utility in the path etc
then i run install/ingbuild
it complains about having no license and says i have to run mklicense
as root
ok i log as root
when i execute mklicense it complains about install file not found,
this the exact message
"Setting up the Computer Associates licensing component...
UX:sh (mklicense): ERROR: /ingres/ingres/install/install: Not found
Setup did not complete. Please make sure you are running as the root
user."
the weirdest thing is that this install file is well in the path
mentioned
i even add in the mklicense file the command
cat II_SYSTEM/ingres/ingres/install/install , before
if ( $II_SYSTEM/ingres/install/install ) and when i run mklicense
it displays the correct install file before rewriting the same
error message !
i really don't know whats wrong since i use all the good pathes
and permissions for the described files
any help will be welcome
Regards

I have had problems with past Ingreses trying to use /ingres. Have
you got an oojamaflip for tracing system calls that you could use?

i'm sorry but i don't understand what you mean by oojamaflip
btw are you telling me that it would be better to use another
directory name instead of /ingres ???
TIA

You know, a program{me}, such as "truss" on Solaris, or "trace",
or whatever. Yes, I did have trouble with using /ingres at one
time, and use /opt/ingres ($II_SYSTEM = /opt) if I can, with
actual locations elsewhere. YMMV.

IIRC the problem was a directory straight off /, so you may (or
may not!!) have more luck with something like /somewhere/ingres
with II_SYSTEM=/somewhere. However, the "truss" command is
really quite something - enjoy!
