Hello,
The 'gtminstall' script seems no longer available for download.
How can I manage to retrieve it each time needed ?
Theanks for your answer.

    Hi William,

    gtminstall script that you are looking for was beta version. The tool got folded into official GT.M release kits years ago. Newer enhancements and fixes went into the copy inside GT.M kits and not to this tool. We noticed them to be out of sync.

    Beause you mention that you retrieve it each time, can you please explain how you use this gtminstall tool?

    Note that, if kits are alredy downloaded, there is no need to rely on this gtminstall, because it is already available in the kits. Also, any older GT.M instalation's gtminstall script can be used to download latest GT.M from sourceforge if necessary.

    Thanks for noticing that we took down this tool, and reaching out to us.

    Hi Kishore,

    I was aware that this script was in beta version.
    What do you mean by GT.M kits ? (gtm_V71011_linux_x8664_pro.tar.gz file for example ?)

    So far, we're using this script to dynamically install the GT.m database on specific environment to test our MUMPS code, using some options : gtminstall --utf8 ${icu_version} --distrib /tmp --overwrite-existing --verbose.

    For information, in the 'GT.M Administration and Operations Guide' concerning version V71011, the 'Installing GT.M' chapter always refers to the gtminstall script and there is a link http://sourceforge.net/projects/fis-gtm/files/GT.M%20Installer.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for all the details William. We've restored GTM Installer directory.
    Sorry about the disruption.
    We will try to update this gtminstaller with updates that went in elsewhere.
