Installer is shell script not working
Hi Guys,
I have one installer shell script which normally get from the dev team to install the app and it works fine for years (in IAX) the same installer/script iam trying to run in Linux 7.2 but it stuck somewhere which I cannot debug, can you help me to point out where it stuck .

here is the snippet.
Code:
## Function used to parse through the command-line arguments.
parse_cmdline_args ()
{
    # If command-line arguments were provided, parse them.
    #
    while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
        # -tempdir flag was used to specify BIFF_install_temp_folder
        #
        if [ $1 = "-tempdir" ]; then
            shift
            # Remove any trailing directory separators
            BIFF_install_temp_folder=`echo "$1" | sed 's/\/*$//'`
            shift
        # -ui flag was used to specify BIFF_installer_ui
        #
        elif [ $1 = "-ui" ]; then
            shift
            # Set the installer UI
            if [ $1 = "console" ]; then
                BIFF_installer_ui="console"
            elif [ $1 = "swing" ]; then
                BIFF_installer_ui="swing"
            elif [ $1 = "silent" ]; then
                BIFF_installer_ui="silent"
            else
                #do nothing (use default setting)
                echo "Warning: Unrecognized installer UI mode: "$1
                echo "Using default installer UI instead (${BIFF_installer_ui})"
            fi
            shift
        # if an invalid flag was provided,  show a warning message
        else
            echo "Unrecognized flag: $1"
            shift
            shift
        fi
    done

if [ ! -f INSTALLER.ERROR ]; then
    if test  -f "installer.properties.orig" ; then
        cp installer.properties.orig installer.properties
    fi
fi

when i runs the this script output is as below, no errors no warning it hangs there more than 1 hour but normally within a minute it ask for the next action normally , dont know what went wrong it envrionment issue or somewhere else.

From the lttle we see:
Code:
echo "Please wait while the installation tool is starting up..."                                   # This is displayed
if [ "${JAVA_HOME}" = "" ]; then
    echo "ERROR: JAVA_HOME environment variable needs to be set to run this application"           # this not so go to else
else
    # - Update PATH variable to use the JVM stored at JAVA_HOME as the 1st available JVM
    PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${PATH}
    export PATH
    if [ "${BIFF_install_temp_folder}" = "" ]; then    # ** Here **
        ${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java -jar install.jar -i ${BIFF_installer_ui}
    else
        if [ -d $BIFF_install_temp_folder ]; then
            echo "Installer temporary disk space location is now:    ${BIFF_install_temp_folder}"      # Not displayed so above
            ${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java -Dlax.nl.env.iatempdir=${BIFF_install_temp_folder} -jar install.jar -i ${BIFF_installer_ui}
        else
            echo "ERROR: -tempdir must define an existing directory"                                   # not displayed so above
        fi
    fi
fi

In red is where you should search, now more seriously, have you tried to run the script in debug mode?
You will find there lots of information even for us to help you because here there is not much to say...

Thanks for the response, have ran the script in debug and got below error.

I have some servers with many Java versions, that is not an issue...

There is nothing in what you produced that makes me think something went wrong... So let's say all is OK...
Where is it going to display?
Are you sure of your $DISPLAY setting ?
Can you confirm?
# 6  
Old 01-21-2017
next would be to see if it is running... and not aborted without trace

Display is correct which i used normally from my old AIX server.

iam using another tool called Exceed which help to install the package in GUI mode and display setting option in GUI mode, which is not appearing so iam not sure its a problem with display or the script

Code:
$echo $DISPLAY
10.250.29.222:0.0

$export DISPLAY=10.250.29.222:46.0

$echo $DISPLAY
10.250.29.222:46.0

also Script is keep running it never aborted itself untill i do.

Meanwhile iam continue to look into it with no success.
