AIX

It's not installed.

seeing that I'm still being new working on AIX could you please give me a link to a tutorial or something that can help me to install lt ?
thanks in advance

It's a long time since I installed any OS packages on AIX, but this looks promising.

Installing software on AIX is straightforward (i suppose you have just the package there, no NIM-server to use, etc.). You have to do everything that follows as root:

put the package file to a new directory. If it has dependencies (see below) put them there too. At last change to this directory:

Code:

# mkdir /tmp/myinst
# cp pkg.file.1 /tmp/myinst
# cp pkg.file.2 /tmp/myinst
...
# cd /tmp/myinst

call the "inutoc" utility to create an inventory file. The file "./.toc" is created:

Code:

# inutoc .
# ls .toc
.toc

You can even inspect the file, it is plain text. Now use SMITty to install the package(s). It can be done from commandline too, but you might find it easier to do it from a menu:

Code:

# smitty install_all

in the upcoming menu select "." as the installation directory and in the following mask select "accept all license agreements", deselect "view license agreements", select "commit software" and deselect "overwrite same or newer versions".

Check "preview only" to see if everything would do OK, once you are satisfied with the results deselect that field to do the installation in real.

If you get prerequisite failures copy the respective package files to the same directory, run "inutoc" again and try again.

I hope this helps.

Hello CarloM & Bakunin,
Thanks a lot for your help, but the problem is that I can't find the Gnu profiler package !! I looked for it on perzl and on IBM web site but I didn't find it ...
any direct link to download it ?
Thanks in advance

No. Your immediate problem, as you described it, is that the package "bos.adt.prof" is not installed. This is part of standard AIX (though it is not installed per default) and should be on your installation sources (your installation CD, the lpp_source of your NIM-Server, ...).

I hope this helps.

I'm pretty sure it is bundled with the GNU C compiler in the "AIX tool box for linux"..

You can do the google stuff ;0)
