if you run find /opt/mqm as root, what do you get?   _________________ MQ & Broker admin |

				| Is the directory MQ is being installed into empty?  Does it work if it is?  Looks to me like a cheeck was added to 7.5 to verify the destination for MQ (code, not data) is empty in the runtime install |

				Hi,
 
I want to install MQ 7.5 in Linux-Ubuntu(64 bit).
 
 
I created a folder called "mqm", under the /opt folder.
 
 
/opt/mqm is empty.
 
 
I have the installables (untar files) in the location /home/dim/MQ.
 
 
After accepting the licence, I ran the command
 
root@D0036:/opt/mqm# rpm -ivh --nodeps --force-debian /home/dim/MQ/MQSeriesRuntime-*.rpm
 
 
My installation failed . I got the following response.

What should I do ? _________________ Best Regards,

				Are you by any chance having . or ./temp as temp file? 
 
Are you sure you are installing in the right sequence?

Which is why I tend to use 'yum' when installing on RHEL/CentOS
 
 
Also I think you are going to need more of the MQ .rpm's
 
 
Whist is why I delete the ones O DON't want such as the lang packs and then install everything. sure I'm lazy but I can't ever remember running into the sort of error the OP is encountering. _________________ WMQ User since 1999

The OP says he's installing on Ubuntu... I believe there is a special install proc described in the infocenter for Ubuntu...   _________________ MQ & Broker admin |

Yes Ubuntu, the distro that tries to be everything to everyone and misses the mark in oh so many ways but I will give Canonical and the Linux press one thing, they have succeeded into getting an awful lot of people into thinking that Ubuntu ===== Linux and nowt else matters.

Can you please add -vv to the rpm command, save the output, and find the point in the resulting log where that message is issued.  What you are doing should work. _________________ Philip Morten
