Hello All,

when I install rpm

rpm --install rpm packagename

I got the following errors

stty:standard input:invalid argument
stty:standard input:invalid argument

I dont know what i have to do exactly.
I search on google for the same but not a particular standard solution is given

please help me to overcome this problem

Usually this is because some user (maybe root) has some stty commands in their .profile or .bash_profile or .bashrc, usually something like stty erase ^H.

You can safely ignore those messages, however if you like to be tidy you can prevent them from coming up by changing them as follows:

It is a good idea to do this as well if you have some software that analyses the output of some commands and does not expect these "stty:standard input:invalid argument" messages.

Helo thx for yr reply

I have changed
cd /home/sroot
.bashrc
.bash_profile
cd /etc

profile
bashrc

but still got the same error

What RPM are you installing? Maybe it executes its install scripts under another user ID.

Helo thx for replying me.

I m installing my own build RPM .

I m making rpm on my build machine.

after that I install it from my installer script using root user

What do you have in the %pre and %post sections of your spec file?

Helo thx for replying me.

I have following in the %pre

%prep
echo 'Prep' $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
%setup -q
%{__cat} <<EOF >%{_tmppath}/find_requires
#! /bin/sh
exec %{__find_requires} | /bin/egrep -v 'libclntsh.so.10.1' | /bin/egrep -v 'libnnz10.so'
exit 0
EOF
chmod +x %{_tmppath}/find_requires
%define _use_internal_dependency_generator 0
%define __find_requires %{_tmppath}/find_requires

%build
echo 'Build' $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
[ ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} != "/" ] && rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT

I have following in the %post


%post
export SW_SOFTWARE_SPEC="%{name},COMPONENT,r=%{version}"
export FILESET="COMPONENT"
export PRODUCT="%{name}"
%{pdsdir}/shell/COMPONENT/postinstall && %{pdsdir}/shell/COMPONENT/configure
