Answer 1

Hello Asif,
I opened deinstall.pl with vi and jumped to line 217. There is nothing in line 217. Its the end of file. In line 216 is the following command:
$TOOL_DIR/perl/bin/perl $TOOL_DIR/deinstall.pl $HOME_VER $TEMP_LOC $TOOL_DIR $ARCHITECTURE_FLAG $TOOL_ARGS
I cannot find the problem.
deinstall.pl
