Dependant module libptools_ptr(shr.o) error

[alabissiere]

Powerpc Aix 4.3.3
While trying to install a program, I got the following message:
0509-150 Dependent module libptools_ptr.a(shr.o) could not be loaded.
0509-022 Cannot load module libptools_ptr.a(shr.o).
0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

What can I do with this?

LIBPATH is mostly the cause of the type of errors you received. What library path contain libptools? Add that path to LIBPATH.

When I type: echo $LIBPATH, this returns nothing. What should I do to find out about that libptools. What is this BTW?
Thx

run 'find / -name "libptools*" -type f | xargs ls -l' and if it returns something like '/usr/local/appl/lib' then do 'export LIBPATH=/usr/local/appl/lib'

It seems the library is part of the ptools utilities.

 

[alabissiere]

OK! Should I install these utilities?

 

[kHz]

What program are you trying to install? It should list the dependencies, which may or may not include ptools. Did you run the find command to check for the existence of any libptools library files?

I am trying to install webspeed from Progress. I did run the find command and there wasn`t any.

If webspeed doesn't install the libptools library files, then you have to install them yourself before installing webspeed.

Good! How and where do I get this?
