The JRE's in oracle site for Solaris comes in 'sh' format (java_1.6.xx.sh).
Is there an option to convert it from 'sh' to 'pkg', and then install it from this pkg on solaris using 'pkgadd'?
There is no conversion of an arbitrary self-extracting installer into a pkg-file. However, once installed, you can create a package out of the resulting directory structure and the files contained in it. You will also have the opportunity to add pre-install checks and post-install steps. Here is a link that could be of help: http://www.garex.net/sun/packaging/create_pkg.html
Hope this helps.

Question:
Is there a way to install a downloaded NBM (Netbeans Module) into an already installed Netbeans IDE via CLI?
Current setup
Netbeans 12.3 with Windows 10
Netbeans 12.3 with Linux Mint 20.1
Relevant scenario
If the question comes to your mind 'why aren't you just using the GUI?' or anything like that. Think of the following scenario. When working on an air gapped network with 50 computers you're the one having to install Netbeans plugins on all of that PCs. You're able to put files on those PCs and execute a command via console and you don't want to run around all the buildings and clicking through the process.
Thank you very much in advance.
I think I found a solution. I'll post it here to reflect my research because I've never found a answer on stackoverflow.
When Netbeans is already installed you can use the --help parameter like:
C:\Program Files\NetBeans\netbeans\bin\netbeans64.exe --help
This lists lot of available parameters (which I haven't found a list of on the web) like (shortened):
General options:
--help show this help
--jdkhome <path> path to JDK
--console new open new console for output
Module reload options:
--reload /path/to/module.jar install or reinstall a module JAR file
Additional module options:
--modules
--refresh Refresh all catalogs
--list Prints the list of all modules, their versions and enablement status
--install <arg1>...<argN> Installs provided JAR files as modules
--disable <arg1>...<argN> Disable modules for specified codebase names
--enable <arg1>...<argN> Enable modules for specified codebase names
--update <arg1>...<argN> Updates all or specified modules
--update-all Updates all modules
Core options:
--fontsize <size> set the base font size of the user interface, in points
--userdir <path> use specified directory to store user settings
--nosplash do not show the splash screen
In my case the solution was to use the --install parameter pointing to the jar file to install.Be aware that the NBM files are just containers containing the jar file and some more meta data files like config xml files. You're able to open it via 7zip for example. And you'll have to take care of all the dependencies yourself.
I am using Ubuntu 12.04. I have installed doxygen 1.8.3.1 using make install.
I would like to uninstall the doxygen built by make, but I don't find any way to do it using make (uninstall or clean...).
In the Makefile there is no reference to uninstall it the software. :(
Unfortunately I can't use the sudo apt-get remove doxygen because it wasn't an installed. :(
I don't find anything related on the internet.
Can anyone help me, please?
Thank you in advance,
Fabiola
There is no "uninstall" target. You need to do a "rm" be hand. If you used the standard prefix path "/usr/local" then
rm /usr/local/bin/doxygen
rm /usr/local/man/man.1/doxygen.1
(more if you install the docs are wizard). Depend on the user used for install, you need sudo to do it.
I know this question is old, but since it is the first result in google I would like to share another way of uninstalling Doxygen built from source. In the build directory where you've ran make there should by a file name install_manifest.txt. That file contains paths to files that were installed using make install command. All you need to do is to run the following command:
sudo xargs rm < install_manifest.txt
Of course this assumes that you've kept the build directory or at least the install_manifest.txt file. If not you need to remove the files by hand as somebody already suggested.
I need to install ibm_db2 extension for making php connection with db2. So I have used pecl. But it produces error.
$ pecl install ibm_db2
When I run this, the below error occurs.
.....
checking in /home/db2inst1/sqllib/lib64...
checking in /home/db2inst1/sqllib/lib32... found
checking for DB2 CLI include files in default path... checking in /home/db2inst1/sqllib... not found
configure: error: Please reinstall the DB2 CLI distribution
ERROR: `/tmp/pear/temp/ibm_db2/configure --with-IBM_DB2=/home/db2inst1/sqllib' failed
Please help.
download ibm_data_server_driver_for_odbc_cli_linuxx64_v97.tar.gz from ibm.com
untar the file into: /opt/ibm/
enter command > pecl install ibm_db2
When prompted for DB2 Installation Directory, use: /opt/ibm/odbc_cli/clidriver/
You need the DB2 headers to build the ibm_db2 PHP extension. They are included in the IBM Data Server Driver for ODBC and CLI.
before install ibm_db2, you have install expc, in the folder uncompress execute the script db2_install with root user: # ./db2_install
It asks for the installation path (e /opt/ibm/db2)
then install ibm_db2
Install a DB2 instance (On Ubuntu due to following instructions: http://www.db2teamblog.com/2010/09/db2-express-c-packages-for-ubuntu-1004.html) This will work also on newer systems.
After that run the following command:
pecl install ibm_db2
When prompted type:
/opt/ibm/dbs/V9.7/
and confirm the installation directory
The error is because in the path /home/db2inst1/sqllib not found the include folder.
you must download db2exc_974_LNX_x86_64.tar.gz, uncompress it (e. /otp/ibm/db2)
then install pecl install ibm_db2
DB2 Installation Directory? use this : /opt/ibm/db2
Check also the first comment on PHP manual by Jean Ferreira.

You need the APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT TOOLS when you install the client you should have the option to install them.
Check your /home/db2inst1/sqllib/include folder you'll see that you only have asn.h, a boatload of files is missing when you don't have the development tools installed.
Then use /home/db2inst1/sqllib as your install directory.
I lacked the APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_TOOLS in my DB2 installation (confirmed by only having asn.h in my includes folder)
To install the APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_TOOLS into an existing DB2 installation, follow these instructions
Check your product information. You will need this information later.
db2ls -p -q -b /opt/ibm/db2/V10.5
Download the appropriate Universal Fix Pack from IBM:
https://www-945.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/swg/selectFixes?parent=ibm~Information%2BManagement&product=ibm/Information+Management/DB2&release=All&platform=Linux+64-bit,x86_64&function=textSearch&text=universal
Be sure to find the matching FixPack version (from the step above) and the correct architecture.
Save the file to /opt/ibm/fixpack
Gunzip/Tar the file
cd /opt/ibm/fixpack
gunzip /opt/ibm/fixpack/downloaded_pack.tar.gz
tar xvf /top/ibm/fixpack/downloaded_pack.tar
Create a response file /opt/ibm/fixpack/devtools.resp like this.
Replace the PROD value with the Product Response File ID
Replace the FILE value with the DB2 installation folder
PROD = DB2_SERVER_EDITION
FILE = /opt/ibm/db2/V10.5
LIC_AGREEMENT = ACCEPT
INSTALL_TYPE = CUSTOM
COMP = APPLICATION_DEVELOPMENT_TOOLS
Stop DB2 with db2stop or db2stop force
Run db2setup with the response code
cd /opt/ibm/fixpack/universal/
./db2setup -r /opt/ibm/fixpack/devtools.resp
Start DB2 with dbstart
When you are done, run pecl install ibm_db2
Use /home/db2inst1/sqllib as your install directory.
Original instructions were found here to install them into an existing DB2 installation (I used the 3rd option):
http://db2commerce.com/2014/02/11/installing-a-db2-component-after-the-rest-of-db2-is-installed/
I got solution for the above issue.
Need to select Custom Install while installing db2. So I just uninstalled and reinstalled DB2.
After that It works fine for me. Thanks everyone :)
I want to write application which uses Postgresql as DBMS.
To write client application do I need libpq library and header files?
If yes where I would get libpq library and header files.
Libpq is included in the full PostgreSQL source code. You can use just libpq without the rest of PostgreSQL, but must download the full package.
You can download it from the PostgreSQL Downloads page.
Once you extract the full package it is inside src\interfaces\libpq.
The PostgreSQL installation guide details how to install only the client libraries in the Installation section, under Client-only installation.
Libpq documentation is also available.
In postgresql sources, src\interfaces\libpq.
And yes, it is possible to compile only the libpq.
get the lipq from repo, {for debian} :
sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
I was also facing this issue but didn't got a clear answer:
This issue clearly states that while installing diesel-cli system is not able to locate libpq.lib
First of all you should have a Postgres installed on your machine.
Also diesel require visual c++, thus download and install it if not already, the size of setup will be ~5gb.
Once above installations are done you need to setup environment variables:
In my case path of Postgres installation is C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL thus add 2 environment variable path under User variables add new in Path where your libpq.lib is located in my case it is available in both C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\12\lib and C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\12\bin
Once this is added create one more environment variable PQ_LIB_DIR and set path as shown below
Note: Once done re-trigger the installation command in a new cmd window
Source: pq-sys and github-solution
For Windows users, it's in (version may be different)
C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\11\lib
There you find libpq.lib. Provide this directory to Linker input.
Don't forget to include C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\11\include directory for include directories.
I fix this problem reccently. This is a solution if you don't want to install Postgres in you windows.
At first, you need download Postgres Binaries. The version I download is 13.6, but it's seems like any version is fine.
Unzip the zip file.Copy libpq.lib from pgsql\lib to shomewhere like C:\Program Files\Postgres\lib.
Execute the following command in cmd window.
setx PQ_LIB_DIR "{where_you_copy_to}"
Open a new cmd windows and install diesel_cli
cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features postgres
In linux vertify you get the libpq.
1st, there is an app: pg_config: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pgconfig.html
after you found out the pg_config absolute bin path.(if you installed multi version of postgressql) Then You can get
--includedir
Print the location of C header files of the client interfaces.
--libdir
Print the location of object code libraries.
Then try to compile/build some example code: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-example.html
Some common failure example: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-build.html
You can install Postgres locally from https://www.enterprisedb.com/downloads/postgres-postgresql-downloads but select only "Command line tools" for install.
After that, you can found libpq.dll in C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\15\bin
I tried:
cpan> i /xls2csv/
No objects found of any type for argument /xls2csv/
cpan> install xls2csv
Warning: Cannot install xls2csv, don't know what it is.
Try the command
i /xls2csv/
to find objects with matching identifiers.
I haven't had any problems installing registered modules, e.g.
cpan> install DateTime
It is just the xls2csv that is providing problems.
Thank you for any insights provided.
P.S. Constrained To Windows with ActivePerl 5.10 (I think) Also I have the xls2csv-1.06.tar.gz file downloaded and tried
cpan> install C:/...path to file locally/xls2csv-1.06.tar.gz
That did not seem to work, and I must install locally.
The indexes used by CPAN.pm are all module-oriented, so they don't see distributions that contain no modules. (xls2csv has only a script.) You can still install them by giving the full path (under authors/id) of the distribution, just as you would to install older or development versions of a distribution:
cpan> install K/KE/KEN/xls2csv-1.06.tar.gz
If you are using my cpan(1) command, you can also install whatever is in the current working directory by telling it to install ".".
% cpan .
That should trigger the normal CPAN.pm process for handling dependencies and so on. You should be able to do that in the CPAN.pm shell too.
If you want to fetch the file from a CPAN mirror, you can do it as ysth suggested. You give it the path under authors/id in the repository and CPAN.pm will find it for you. You're skipping the step where it looks in the PAUSE index because you've already given it the path to download.
It's a 5 year old script with few tests (7) none on a Mac, and one bug report (a year old). It appears to not have been updated since it was written so use this script with realistic expectations. In other words, don't be surprised if you can't get it to work.
