IIUG IDS 10 Download and Debian

Has anybody installed the linux IDS 10 IIUG download onto a Debian system ? I converted the .rpm into .deb and installed them in the order given in the install_rmp script. However when I do a `oninit -iy` I get a complaint about "Invalid Serial Number" What have I forgotten to do ?

It sounds like $INFORMIXDIR/etc/install, which runs etc/brand, may not have executed, or failed.

I instaled on ubuntu wich is a debian derivative. I tryed with alien but it didn't worked. The steps to do it was : - Install ubuntu - Install rpm from ubuntu (dpkg or dselect) - Create /var/lib/rmp (the distribution didnt create it :-( ) - Link /usr/bin/rpm to /bin/rpm - install_server The CSDK was a little more tricky because it have a dependency from a packet that debian dosen't have: - Create a script /bin/rpm that contains : ----------------------------- #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/rpm --nodeps $* ----------------------------- - installclientsdk BTW : I used jdk 1.4 from sun not the bundled on instalation. > It sounds like $INFORMIXDIR/etc/install, which runs etc/brand, may not > have > executed, or failed. > > Guy > > ----- Original Message ---- > From: MARK THORNBER <mark.thornber@mdcr.org> > To: ids@iiug.org > Sent: Monday, November 27, 2006 8:57:57 AM > Subject: IIUG IDS 10 Download and Debian [7902] > > Has anybody installed the linux IDS 10 IIUG download onto a Debian system > ? > > I converted the .rpm into .deb and installed them in the order given in > the > install_rmp script. > > However when I do a `oninit -iy` I get a complaint about "Invalid Serial > Number" > > What have I forgotten to do ? > > TIA > -- > Mark Thornber > > ========================= > E M Thornber CEng MIET > Enchanted Systems Limited > Software Toolsmiths > +44 (0) 1503 272097 > > > ******************************************************************************* > Forum Note: Use "Reply" to post a response in the discussion forum. > > > ________________________________________________________________________________ ____ > Do you Yahoo!? > Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!
