Re: [Wrapper-user] Wrapper on HP-UX Problem

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Stefan,
    HP-UX support was graciously donated by one of our users.   I have
never actually touched one of these machines, so hopefully any other
HP-UX out there will post if they have any ideas on this :-)

    There should be no reason why the script requires root access as it
is failing.  The wrapper will try to write a pid file to /var/run.   But 
I don't
think you would get the error you are seeing if you don't have access to
write to that directory.

Here are a couple things that you could check:

1) It sounds obvious, but has happened before.  :-)  Are you sure you
are using the HP-UX version of the Wrapper.  Releases are platform
dependent.

2) What happens if you go into the WRapper bin directory and manually
execute:
./wrapper
If it is working, you should get a usage message.  How about:
./realpath
Once again, you should get a usage message.

3) You might want to try downloading the source release and running the
build.sh script for you particular machine.   Not being familiar with HP-UX,
I'm not sure if this is an issue, but the release we provide may not be
compatible with your particular hardware??  If this true, I would want to
know about it.  But doing a build on your machine would fix that problem.

Obviously, I am shooting in the dark, but let me know about the above.
I'll give it some more thought as well.

Cheers,
Leif
