Hi, Iam sorry.. I have not used -R option. Regs, Manjula -----Original Message----- From: rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Baz Sent: Monday, April 12, 2004 2:06 PM To: mramacha@xxxxxxxxx; RPM Package Manager Subject: Re: question about solaris postinstall script? Manjula, Thanks for the reply. Can I not use "-R"? Funny thing when i used "-R" option... 1. When I do pkginfo, I cannot see the pkg i just installed with "-R". 2. If i do "-R /opt/BARRY" then it will create var directory within BARRY, why? thanks Barry ----- Original Message ----- From: "Manjula Ramachandra (mramacha)" <mramacha@xxxxxxxxx> To: "'RPM Package Manager'" <rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 12, 2004 12:00 AM Subject: RE: question about solaris postinstall script? > Hi, > > Write a script to prompt for installation directory. > Store this directory in a file.. > > Provide this file as input to pkgadd. > pkgadd -a <absolute path of above file> -d <pkg> > > Regs, > Manjula > > -----Original Message----- > From: rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] > On Behalf Of Baz > Sent: Monday, April 12, 2004 12:22 PM > To: RPM Package Manager > Subject: question about solaris postinstall script? > > > All, > > Sorry i am posting this question in this group. > > Can someone tell me how i can get a directory input from user and > install the package in that directory in solaris using pkgadd? > > I have issues with redefining BASEDIR in request, then pass it on to > the rest of the scripts. > > Thanks > > Barry > > > > _______________________________________________ > Rpm-list mailing list > Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list > > > _______________________________________________ > Rpm-list mailing list > Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list > _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
