8iLite Install Script Request

I looking forn the names and dir location's

1. build the demo database
2. create generic UID like scott/tiger
3. create Net8 TCP/IP entires for a client &
server to exist on the same machine.
The Doc's is very limited...
Please Help...

You should install the script at a predefined location, for example $HOME/bin, or whatever you prefer.
For the 'load into crontab' you should refer to the crontab command at the unix reference, just type man crontab and you will get further details on the crontab command.

Install Script Error?

It's Christmas day, and I just got an IPOD Video and tried to install the software for it and ran into a whole mess of problems.
I tried to install ITunes 7 & Quicktime 7, but every time I try I get an error at the end of the installation saying something about a missing Install Script error and that i need to run "ISScript.msi" or contact support.
I have no idea what to do, and tried to find that file on microsoft.com, but the onlyint that comes up is "Virtual PC 2004" and not how to install it, but work around it.
any suggestions?

The Install script engine on this machine is older than the version required to run this setup. If available, please install the lastest version of ISScript.msi or contact your support personnel for further assistance.
okay, let's try installing a version 11, using the instructions from the following InstallShield document:
Update to the Latest InstallShield Installation Engines
is that one of any help with the error message?

"Error" in ApEx install scripts for runtime environment?

I recently installed a runtime ApEx 3.1 on a 10.2.0.1.0 database. After installing an application which uses the Database Account Credentials method for authentication I was unable to login to the application, getting an ERR-10480 message. After some research on this forum I granted ALTER USER to FLOWS_030100 which resolved the issue. So far so good.
But I was still puzzled as to why the application had worked without problems in a development environment and not in the runtime environment. It took only a few minutes to locate the problem though. In the runtime-install script "apxrtins.sql" there is a call to the "runtime_grant_revoke.sql" script which removes unnecessary DBA system privileges for a runtime environment (which is a good thing IMO). In this script there is also a REVOKE ALTER USER statement, but it seems this one is needed if your application uses the DBACCOUNT authentication method. I didn't find anything on this in the documentation.
Anyone else notice this as well? I would think this is a bug in the install-scripts but perhaps I'm missing something somewhere?

Tim,
Thanks for reporting this. In database server versions earlier than 10.2.0.3, the alter user privilege is required for the "flows" schema to support the feature you mentioned. We'll try to get this fixed in the next patch release.

Sun MC Automated Install Script failing 50% of the time

Are there a set of tips in general for the script; or perhaps tips for the contents of the boom.cfg file to help increase the percentage of successful installs?
Thanks, [email protected]

Hi Mike,
In most of the SunMC autoinstall projects I've worked on, we ended up implementing 3 slightly different install/setup config files: one for 12-25k's, one for 3800-6900s, and one for "everything else". Then we put a bit of smarts in the main install script to decide which to use. The questions for each of those groups were different enough that it made sense to break them apart.
Are you using the base es-inst/es-setup commands? es-imagetool and agent-update.bin? es-makeagent? Some notes here: http://forums.halcyoninc.com/showthread.php?t=389 . Send me an email if you need help getting things off the ground.

Should/can the install script included in source=() list?

Hi,
It is a good thing that the sources needed to build a package are md5summed for integrity, but in most packages the install script is not. I was thinking why this might be - the PKGBUILD can be expected to modify the script?
So to try, in one of my packages I added the install script to the source=() list. The package builds of course just fine. Then, however, if I want to upload it to AUR, I try to make a source-only package with "makepkg --source", which brakes with something like this:
ln: creating symbolic link `/tmp/foo/srclinks.YjYgQ8XlE/foo/foo.install': File exists
This is because makepkg tries to create a 2 symbolic links with the same filename: one link for the "foo.install" in the source=() list and also for the install=() list....
Is this deliberate, or a bug? Looks more like a bug to me, but thought I better ask first....
Cheers,
Greg

It might be completely internal to the pacman but defines actions taken on the system - thus whatever is in .install has effects just like the rest of the files, maybe even more: the other files are just copied, the .install is executed.
And while it might never get installed on the system, it's internals are - how else one could define a "post_uninstall()" if it wasn't stored? Being pacman developer you know much more about this than I do, can you give a bit of info on that?
Right it is installed to pacman database, but again, it is pacman doing all that.
Fair enough.... The detail, however, that is not installed does not preempt checksumming. Eg. patches are also: 1) used for the package, 2) not installed, and 3) still in the checksum....
shining wrote:
All I'm trying to get to, is there any serious reason (technical, not philosophical) NOT to checksum the install script as well? Because I'm yet to see any valid arguments against it, and there are loads for it....
Taking your example from kernel26 :
-i $startdir/kernel26.install
-i ${pkgdir}/etc/mkinitcpio.d/${pkgname}.preset
Note that the scriptlet edited is the original one in $startdir , because that's the only place where it needs to be, from the packager pov.
While for the preset file, it needs to be copied to $pkgdir and it is edited there.
If you had a checksum for the scriptlet, it would also mean that makepkg -g output could be altered after running makepkg. Very weird..
Ok, this is indeed the case. But if you look at real packages, it seems that after the package is compiled, many times they update the PKGBUILD with the new md5sum values. Again: core/kernel26.
That .install update section in the PKGBUILD is then relegated to a "helper function" role that keep the information in sync when there's a new release, but as the PKGBUILD is distributed, it won't change anything in the .install anymore...
Thus, again, there's no real difference between the .install files and other files used as source.
shining wrote:Btw the whole scriptlet file could be created entirely from the pkgbuild build function.
Sure, and that's a great thing! I actually wondered why so many packages have separate .install when it can be done in the PKGBUILD. Thought it might be some convention, but probably just habit.... I prefer doing it in the PKGBUILD as well, whenever possible...
shining wrote:There might be ways to fix that, though I don't even see any good ones. But why bother ? You said there are loads of valid arguments to have it , but you didn't even give one !
On the other hand, I'm yet to find any of your rebuttals that are not rebutted here again...
shining wrote:What are you worried about here ? Security ? If you think adding a checksum for the install file is going to give you any security, you are badly fooling yourself. If someone is distributing a malicious pkgbuild, it can contain the md5sum of the malicious scriptlet which is shipped with it.
I think you misunderstood me. I'm not complaining, but inquiring. The PKGBUILD system is awesome, and it makes me search out programs that I use but not in the repo/AUR so that I can make a new package. But also, I'm interested in the "how" and "why", and hope to improve things if possible. Now, to me it seems theres an unreasonable distinction to checksum some files needed for a package but not all of them. And thus I set out to ask the elders here on the Forum to see whether someone can shed light on the reasons of the current state. Not trying to piss of anybody, but being interested.
Of course the md5sum is not security, it's a help, nothing more.
As an example: some time ago, there was a package in the community (thus managed by TUs) that had an update. I wanted to check out something in the package, got the PKGBUILD and tried to make it myself - md5sum says that the sources are incorrect.... Obviously something must have gone very bad, because the md5sum field was updated according to the SVN, the package is available on pacman thus it had to build, and the sources used in the package have not been changed for a while so that cannot be a problem....
I've got a package from a trusted source and it is broken, the md5sum told me. So the breakage can be the very same way in the install script, why is the md5sum not allowed to tell me that?
shining wrote:The only security for pkgbuilds is yourself. When you get one from a strange place, you MUST read the pkgbuild/install files.
Of course, never argued against it. But there are different layers of verbosity....
Anyway....

Using subsitiutions in the install scripts

This should be pretty obvious, but I can't find the answer in the documentation.
Using Apex 3.1.2, in the Shared Objects, I've created a substitution named "TABLESPACE". The application uses a set of tables, the install should create these tables, and DBA have funny ideas about where these tables should be created, so I'd like to offer the option of having the install process ask for and use the TABLESPACE.
So I create an install script called "create tables". The script text has the following:
CREATE TABLE table1 (ID NUMBER, NAME VARCHAR2(30))
TABLESPACE ??;
So how do I use the TABLESPACE substitution value in the install script above? Use "&TABLESPACE:", use ":TABLESPACE"?
Edited by: tjoneslo on Nov 25, 2008 11:56 AM

To answer my own question. The install scripts are run as sql (or pl/sql) statements. You can access the pre-defined substitution strings via the v('NAME') parameter call (e.g. v('APP_USER')) but the application substitution strings, even though we are prompting for them, are not available.
Which would make for a good enhancement.

Supporting Object Install Scripts - populate clob table

All
Before I delve into exactly how I thought I'd ask the forum if anyone had packaged up an install script to populate a table with a clob column?
I have an app that I am finishing up and the one remaining table has a clob column which obviously doesn't make for simple SQL inserts due to the CLOB type.
Thanks in advance
Phil

Hi Vadimon,
Thanks for reporting this, however I am struggling to reproduce the issue.
I created an application with 2 installation scripts (1 without a condition and 1 with a condition set to NEVER), then imported this into a 4.1 instance installing supporting objects. Here, only the 1 without a condition executed, as expected. I then created 2 upgrade scripts (again 1 without a condition and 1 with a condition set to NEVER), then re-imported this to upgrade the application. Again, only the 1 without a condition executed, as expected.
Would you be able to send me an export of an application where this reproduces, or provide the steps you took to reproduce this?
Regards,
Anthony.

Post Install Scripts

I am creating an image with System Utility. One module i can add is called "Add Packages and Post-Install Scripts".
I put one of my scripts in it:
#!bin/sh
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText "Hello"
But I get an error when trying to image saying "install setup failed: run postinstall script"
I know the script works because i tested it.
Any ideas?

probably not…
try using the defined installer variables instead of a specific path. there's a quick rundown here, though there's probably better documentation of it elsewhere: http://tinyurl.com/yejppmm
basically, you probably want $3:
$1: Full Path to Package
$2: Full Path to target installation directory: /Applications
$3: Mountpoint of installation disk: / or /Volumes/External_Drive
$4: Root directory of currently booted system
your script may be failing because the installer is trying to run it on the booted volume, which won't work. you want it to apply to the restored/newly installed volume.

How to install transport request files into the SAP system

Hi Experts,
I want to install transport request files into my SAP source and target system . I am from BW/BI background so can anyone help me out with the step by step procedure for the above installation.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Shiva

Hi,
What I understand is, you want to transport request from one server to another.
for example, Development to Qualtiy or Quality to Production.
For this your transport system must be configured. Please search help.sap.com or google for "How to configure Transport System (STMS)".
If you want to copy transport request from one system to another system which is not in your landscape, you need to physically move/copy transport request (cofile and datafile) to the target system in /usr/sap/trans/cofiles and /usr/sap/trans/data
Then import that request using SCC1.
You can alos perform TEST import for result.
Regards.

Install media 2012.08.04 and latest install scripts - the shell

I'm just curious about this: the latest install media uses zsh, the install scripts are bash scripts - the shell you're dropped in after "arch-chroot" is sh (SHELL=/bin/sh chroot "$@")
Why do we use sh in the chrooted environment?

Allan wrote:Because zsh is not installed by default...
I understand, but let me rephrase : why the shell in the chrooted environment is sh and not bash? Isn't bash installed by default?
In the previous version of the install scripts (present in the previous version of the install cd) the chrooted shell was bash, and in Arch "sh" is a symlink to bash (if I understand correctly, calling "bash" as "sh" make bash behave like sh).
So, there's a reason to use sh in the chrooted installation?

The installer found unexpected changes to the install script

Hi,
I've just try to install PC Client 15.7 "EBF 23439: 15.7 SP130" Just downloded from Service Market Place on a Win 03 R2 32 bit and on Windows 12 R2 64 bit
On Win 03 R3 32 bit it works fine but in Win 12 R2 there isen0t any way to run Sybase Central.
When I try to uninstall, on each machine, there are only thi message:
Unable to lunch installer
The installer found unexpected changes to the install script:

Hi,
So you are saying that PC-Client 15.7 SP130 doesn't uninstall? I will look into this.
If you go to your control panel and installed software.
What version(s) of Microsoft Studio do you have installed?
What versions of Microsoft Visual C++ #### Redistributable Packages do you have?
From what I saw they had pulled the Sybase Central out of PC-Client.
You might be able to get from ASE 15.5 version of PC-Client.
Please note that PC-Client with Sybase Central was never certified with Windows 8 or 2012. So you never get Sybase Central to work on those operating systems.
PC-Client 15.5 last drop should have been certified with Windows 7.
Thanks,
Dawn Kim

[SOLVED] Pacman 3.5.1 and install script problem.

Hi, i'm currently maintaining dkms-nvidia package in AUR. After upgrading to pacman 3.5.1 install script doesn't work anymore. I have searched forum and some googled but i haven't got a clue. It was working with pacman 3.4.3 (i have skipped 3.5.0 release). Does something changed with 3.5.x release about install script handling? Here is the install script:

My older packges also have ".iNSTALL" but pacman-3.4.3 was taking care of it. Now it ignores install scriplets like these. It is either a makepkg bug or pacman bug. Any help or should i open a bug report?

I did the following things :-
1. Remove App Catalog roles.
2. Uninstalled Management Point.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility

*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
