How to install OS X .dist packages?

I've downloaded a number of recent OSX updates that include .dist files. How can I use ARD to distribute these updates to the Macs on our network?
Thanks

ARD, to my knowledge, cannot push out anything other than .pkg and some .mpkg files.
What updates are you getting that are coming in .dist? .dist files are distribution scripts, not the updates themselves, and I've never seen them downloaded outside of a .pkg or other installer file though I haven't been having my system keep installers downloaded through Software Update so perhaps things have changed and I haven't noticed.
Anyway, you may need to download the standalone installer distributions so that you can get .pkg files for use with ARD.

  • How to install and use DBXML package in Ubuntu Server 8.04 64bit

    Hi all.
    I used to install and use DBXML in Ubuntu Desktop 8.04 32bit. Now I want to use on Ubuntu Server 8.04 64bit.
    This is code for my installation (I use DBXML 2.2.13)
    env CFLAGS="-O0" sh buildall.sh enable-java with-xerces="xerces-c-src" with-berkeleydb-prefix="/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.3" with-xerces-prefix="/usr/local" with-pathan-prefix="/usr/local" with-xquery-prefix="/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.XQuery.1.2" --with-dbxml-prefix="/usr/local/BerkeleyDBXML.2.2"
    After installing, I could open Container, get Document, but when print the result (by "print" command), it failed. (stdin:3: print failed, Error: nsUnmarshalNode overlap File: Nsutil.cpp Line: 2358). Of course, all above commands run successfully with Ubuntu Desktop 8.04 32bit.
    Can you tell me which differences between 2 OS version and how to fix it
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Make sure that you are building a 64-bit version for the 64-bit platform. It's possible that you have mismatched some libraries. Be sure to add "-b 64" to buildall.sh. When you are done run the "file" command on all of the libraries in <path-to-install>/lib to see if they have been built 64-bit.
    That error looks like a 32- vs 64-bit issue of some sort.

    Have you restarted your notebook after removing VAP from the system?
    I have updated VAP on several notebooks and have never noticed something like this.
    After removing VAP from the system new version was always installed properly.
    I can imagine something is still in registry.
    You can check it and try to remove manually.
    Search all entries for Toshiba Value and remove it.
    If this will not work all you can do is to install OS again using recovery image. After clean installation remove VAP again, restart your notebook and install latest version.

  • How to install RPM-4.1 package on Solaris 8?

    I have a Sparc Sun-Fire-V240 server with Solaris 8 software. Now I want to unpack a rpm which created on Redhat 8 with RPM-4.1. It caused a coredump. I guess it is because the Solaris 8 has only RPM -3.0.4. Should I install RPM 4-1 to Solaris 8 to unpack it? Does Solaris 8 support RPM-4.1? or any other solution? Thanks!

  • Help! How to get the Java Communication Package work in JDK1.3.1?

    I downloaded a Java Communications API Win32 ver 2.0 from java.sun.com, and try to use it to do some programming to communication ports with JDK1.3.1.
    I failed. When I tested with the samples (BlackBox, SimpleRead) coming with the javax.comm. It showed "no serial port found", something like that. I check the installation Instructions of the comm. package, it only described the installation under JDK1.1 and the pre-release version of JDK1.2. (and the installation of the same package in JDK1.1 and JDK1.2 are totally different.)I tried the specification with my JDK1.3, but it doesn't work.
    Who knows how to install the Javax.comm package in JDK1.3.1? Please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks a lot.

    This comes straight out of the FAQ that you got with your download:
    Q: My application does not find any ports when it enumerates available ports.
    Q: BlackBox gives me a message that says "No serial ports found!"
    A: In order for the Java communications API to find ports the file
    javax.comm.properties must be in the correct place. The preferred location
    is in <jdk>/lib. See the installation instructions for alternate locations
    and further information.
    Installation is very simple. Comm is a standard extension, so copy comm.jar to %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\ext
    This is all in the docs....

  • How to install/add packages to org.apache

    hi everyone!
    i'm pretty new with Java and i wanted to know how to install a package i downloaded from "http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/". the package name is poi and i have no clue how to do it so i'll be able to import some classes from it in my code... (i tried to just paste it the file src.zip at the location org/apache but it didn't worked)
    thanks for you help,
    shimon ;)

    "install" isn't really the right word. You'll have to learn to think differently about JARs in Java. because you don't "install" them and your apps don't get access to them via the operating system. They're more like dynamic link libraries or DLLs in Windows parlance.
    What you should do is figure out what a standard directory structure for all your applications will be, maybe something like this:
    application
    +
    +------source (put your .java source files in their package structure under here)
    +------lib (put your 3rd party JAF files under here)
    +------classes (compile your .class files to this directory)
    So in this case you'd put the POI JAR under /lib for your project. Tell Eclipse that /source is where it should expect to find all the .java file, that /class is the output directory for all compilations. Right click on the project folder, select "Properties", and add all the JARs to the build class path. Then you'll be all set with Eclipse.
    Tell Eclipse that application is the root of your project. Tell

  • How to install packages from local folder

    Hi all,
    I have downloaded all arch linux packages from the following URLs:
    ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/core/os/i686/
    ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/extra/os/i686/
    ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/community/os/i686/
    and then have saved them to an external hard disk. Then I have attached that external hard disk to my system and packages are available in following folders:
    /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Core-OS/
    /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Extra-OS-1/
    /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Extra-OS-2/
    /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Community-OS-1/
    /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Community-OS-2/
    /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Community-OS-3/
    Now I want to install some or all packages from these folder with the help of pacman command. I am seeing that package corresponding to wvdial command is available in the /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Extra-OS-1/ folder. But how to use pacman command so that I can install wvdial package from that folder?
    In addition to this if I want to install ALL Extra Packages available in the folders /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Extra-OS-1/ and /mnt/external_hd/Arch_Linux/Extra-OS-2/ then how to execute the pacman command?
    Please send me step by step instructions so that I shall be able to install some or all downloaded packages.
    I shall remain thankful for this forever.

    Hi fukawi2,
    Thanks for reply and searching for my username on google. It is true that I am a freelance s/w developer but I am not installing Arch Linux for any client. I am installing it due to some other reasons. In fact I started working on Red Hat and then on Fedora when I was a student of bachelor degree course in computer applications. Then later I searched open suse and started using it. I am using open suse from its 10.1 version. However the recent version of this distribution has become much resource consuming. So I am in the need of a light weight linux distribution. And I encountered Arch Linux. Then I purchased its installation disk from an online shop and installed it on my system. But only text mode is working at this moment. Since I want to use X window and so I started to follow the syntax of pacman command. But it is connecting to internet. Since my internet connection is slow (average speed of 10kbps) and so I requested the same online shop to download all packages from Arch Linux repository and send them to me. Therefore now I am having all those packages in my local external hard disk drive in the folder mentioned in my first post. Now I want to install packages from these folder. And so in order to get help I have come to this forum.
    I have also followed the steps given on the pages https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … l_commands and https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … repository. But when I am trying to install a particular package using the following command:
    pacman -U wvdial
    then it is asking for a dependency. I know that  the dependent package in my local folder but why it is not being automatically taken by pacman command? Can you please explain it.
    That is why I am asking help only for customization and usages of pacman in order to install packages from local folder. But each member in this forum is only referring to long written manuals and not giving me exact solution which I think will involve four/five steps.
    Best Regards ...

  • How to install SWC and load the package in CS3

    hello,
    does anyone know how to install a swc and load the package?
    I have installed the two SWC as3corelib-.92.1 and

    from an AS file nothing happens other than, 1172: Definition
    com.adobe:xml could not be found.
    They turn up ok in flash as components, but I think I miss
    something..

    this:
    http://www.ploem.be/blog/?page_id=105
    hints, advice anything most appreciated.!

    right :) an instance of a component needs to be either
    dragged to the stage, or in some cases into the file Library,
    before they become available in your file. is it working
    now?

At first the manager opened  four boxes of new unit for me to check if facetime is there and he reassured me there's new batch of iphone5 coming on 2nd day. So i went back and he changed it to new one.. .Now im satisfied..

  • How to install a business package in the portal ?

    Hi everyone,
    I am a beginner in SAP Netweaver Portal, and i have a question :
    How to install a business package in the portal ?
    Thanks & regards
    Hassan

    Hi Hassan,
    Well i would like to quote one more point here, although you can import a buss pack into the portal but there are some std methods to be followed for every thing in portal, When it comes to deploying a busines package, you should always do it from SDM only !! although we can use import facility. now let me tell you the difference between the two. When you use import, you are just putting the contents into the portal and not deploying it, where as using SDM you deploy the SCA files on your portal totally. you must be knowing that business packages are always delivered in SCA formats.
