Try to execute oss-install with trace turned on and see where exactly it fails: bash +x ./oss-install Avi Jerry Kreps wrote:
I logged in as root and from the command line used YaST to install the ossdos_up-3.9.3n package from the pay series.
I went to the /tmp directory and issued the following command:
./oss-install
The results are listed below.
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 158 Oct 31 14:03 opsod_up-3.9.3n -rwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 112508 May 28 1998 oss-install -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 1792000 May 28 1998 oss.pkg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 57 Oct 28 20:35 xr.ycp bash-2.04# ./oss-install bash: ./oss-install: No such file or directory bash-2.04# /tmp/oss-install bash: /tmp/oss-install: No such file or directory
I even changed the ownership to root:root and no joy, so I switched them back. Nothing in the /etc/permissions file refers to oss.
Notice that I also tried to address the oss-install program with the COMPLETE path and still it failed. The behavior NEVER occured on any prior distro of SuSE!!!
