from this error we can say it's required libdcethreads,is it right? if so
can somebody suggest where can i download libdcethreads,if not suggest me what causing this error.


any help appriciated.

regards,

I suggest that you contact the vendor, in your HP. This software may not be intended for HP-UX, respectively this library may not be ported at all - libdcethreads. I've found only ports for Suse and Debian.
