Hello,

I am trying to upgrade a L1000 Fileserver from HPUX11.00 to HPUX11.11

It seems that I cannot get over the first obstacle:

If I try to install the update-ux command from CD-ROM by typing:

swinstall -r -s /cdrom /Update-UX \@ /var/adm/sw/update-ux.root 2>
/dev/null
(using korn shell)

I get the following message:

======= 07/23/03 09:12:17 EDT BEGIN swinstall SESSION
         (non-interactive)

       * Session started for user "root@mycomputer".

       * Beginning Selection
       * "mycomputer:/var/adm/sw/update-ux.root": This target does not
         exist and will be created.
       * "mycomputer:/cdrom": Cannot open the logfile on this target or
         source. Possibly the media is read-only or there is a
         permission problem. Check the daemon logfile and
         "/var/tmp/swagent.log" on this host for more information.
       * Software selection failed for "mycomputer:/cdrom".
       * Selection had errors.

======= 07/23/03 09:12:19 EDT END swinstall SESSION (non-interactive)

root is the owner and owns all permissions for /var/adm/sw
/cdrom naturally is not writable ???

Probably a ridiculous error I am making. But I cannot find out what I am
doing wrong?

Has anybody of you experiences with the update-ux command?
Encountered any Problems?

Thank you for your help

Andreas
