Re: installation problem on unix

Dipu,
If you check the installation documentation (on the CD "Install.htm"), you
should see that the example is
asking for the source of the install files (such as /cdrom/sqr), not the
destination.

Dipu,
The instruction from Brio to install Unix-SQR 6.1.4 from a zip file is not
fully correct. The following is my own instruction to install SQR6.1.4 on
our HP-UX/Oracle box. Hope this helps.

1. Download SQR zip file ('sqr614hpuxora.zip') provided by Brio from the
WEB.

2. Unzip file 'sqr614hpuxora.zip'. This will create a tar file
    'sqr614hpuxora.tar'.

3. FTP tar file 'sqr614hpuxora.tar' (Binary format) to the UNIX host, place
it in your working directory (ie. /temp)

4. At the UNIX host:
    A. Type: cd /temp
    B. Type: tar xvf sqr614hpuxora.tar (extract the file)
             This will create /common and /sqr directories under /temp.
    C. Create directory 'common' under /temp/sqr/hpux/ (The reason for this
is when install, SQR is looking for directory /common under /temp/sqr/hpux/)
    D. Copy files: cp -R /temp/common/*  /temp/sqr/hpux/common
    G. Create a licence key file called 'license.key' under your production
SQR directory where SQR will be installed(ie. /opt/sqr/) with only one line
of your licence key number. (ie. 99999-9999-9999-9999-9999)
    H. Type: cd /temp/sqr/hpux
    I. Type: 'setup' (This will install new SQR into system under your
production SQR directory which you provided.)
       - Select your production SQR directory when asked for installation
(ie. /opt/sqr/).
