Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Script does not run in Chinese locale Post 302684315 by adam.wis on Thursday 9th of August 2012 11:57:02 AM

Thanks for the tip jim.

I found out what was causing the problem, related to what you said. I ran into this once before just not to this scale. It turns out that my script is in IBM-1047. When running this script in Chinese (whose codepage is IBM-935) there are problems with variant characters. In Chinese, all characters such as $, {, [, | are coded differently than in IBM-1047. I saw this in other languages when dealing with the piping character |. I just didnt expect to see this with so many other characters with the Chinese locale. Even variables do not start with $ they start with \ . In order to fix this I converted to the Chinese EBCDIC codepage and the script now runs.

NAME
installer - Solaris Web Start installer utility SYNOPSIS
installer [-locales list] [-nodisplay] [-noconsole] [-debug] DESCRIPTION
The installer utility invokes a Web Start install wizard sequence which will lead the user through a sequence of installation panels. This installer utility is found on many CDs that are shipped with Solaris and it will be found among the top level files of these CDs. When the installer is on a CD being accessed from a desktop file manager, the installer can be double clicked to start the installation sequence. If the user is not currently the system's root user, the root user password will be requested. The installer utility can also be run from other UNIX scripts. Usually, a script is used in conjunction with the utility's -nodis- play option. Add the -noconsole option for non-interactive scripts. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -locales list Selects product translations for install, corresponding to the specified list of locales if the specified locale transla- tions are present on the installation media. Locales are supplied in a comma-separated list following the -locales option. An example list would appear as follows: installer -locales fr,de,it This would install products with translations for the French, German, and Italian locales. -nodisplay Runs the install without a graphical user interface. Use the default product install unless it was modified by the -locales options. -noconsole Run the install without any interactive text console device. Useful when paired with -nodisplay for non-interactive UNIX script use. -debug Outputs extra information about what the install is doing. Mainly for install diagnostic purposes. FILES
