Re: Installing IPM 2.6 on Solaris 8 - Error : looking for older

brooks-el · ‎09-19-2006

Hey guys,

I have a server that had Common Services 2.2 installed, but nothing else. So i upgraded 2.2 to 3.0, then installed all the other modules for LMS 2.5 (DFM, Campus Manager, RME) but when i go to install IPM, im getting a strange error. Here is the Log

______ LOG ______

INFO: This product requires:

Reinstall of the same version of IPM is not supported.

IPM Server Reinstall Canceled!!

_____ END OF LOG _____

now why is IPM looking for an old version of IPM, its never been installed on this system before. i even checked the pkg's installed, no CSCOipm, and the /opt/ directory only has CSCOpx, no IPM...so why is my install of 2.6 lookign for it?????

Any help would be nice.

Regardless of what's in /opt, if the following command succeeds, then IPM will assume it's doing an upgrade:

pkginfo -q CSCOipm-s

Try running:

pkginfo CSCOipm-s

You should see a hit. If you do:

pkgparam CSCOipm-s BASEDIR

That should tell you where it was installed. If that path does not exist, pkgrm CSCOipm-s, then try to install IPM again.

brooks-el · ‎09-19-2006

did that...here is the output

# pkgrm CSCOipm-s

pkgrm: ERROR: no package associated with

Upon reinstallation, i get the same error where it thinks its a reinstall...im so confused.

Do this:

# csh

# pkginfo -q CSCOipm-s

# echo $status

What is the output?

brooks-el · ‎09-19-2006

# csh

cw2k2# pkginfo -q CSCOipm-s

cw2k2# echo $status

1

the output, as shown above....is 1

Joe Clarke · ‎09-19-2006

Strange. This should not happen. Try running the installer as:

cd /cdrom/cdrom0

sh -x ./setup.sh

Then send the output.

This is not the output I expect. I do not see the debugging from the failing part of the script. When I run the same command here, I get much different output:

From where are you installing IPM? What are the contents of the install/version file on the CD?

Joe Clarke · ‎09-19-2006

I think I see what's going on now. Do the same operations for the CSCOcwbS package as you did for CSCOipm-s. You may have had (or have) CiscoWorks Blue installed on this server.

brooks-el · ‎09-20-2006

# csh

cw2k2# pkginfo -q CSCOcwbS

cw2k2# echo $status

0

so the status is 0

Cisco Works Blue?

Joe Clarke · ‎09-20-2006

Well, it could be leftover from an old CWB installation. Use the pkgparam command I mentioned earlier to see if the basedir is still valid.

brooks-el · ‎09-20-2006

cw2k2# pkgparam CSCOcwbS BASEDIR

/opt/CSCOcwbs

So does that mean it has memory of it being installed at one point...i talked to the customer and they have no memory of having installed it. With that being said, how do i fix it?

brooks-el · ‎09-20-2006

# pkginfo CSCOcwbS

application CSCOcwbS Cisco IPM Common Services

now that is interesting...it says it's installed, but the BASEDIR location it points to doesn't exist.

I tried to run the uninstall from the IPM software CD
