Requirements (top)

  • The installation of Java 2 Execution Environment (java2_eoe) requires 80MB of disk space (27MB temporarily and 53MB permanently for installing the default subsystems). If you only intend to run Java™ programs and you do not expect to do any development, java2_eoe is all that is required on your system.

Users who only expect to run Java programs do not require java2_dev. It is needed only by customers who expect to do development

  • The installation of Java 2 Debug Binaries (java2_debug) (optional) requires 124MB of disk space (36MB temporarily and 88MB permanently for installing the default subsystems). This package is only needed to help report problems to SGI. You should download it only if you need to run java_g or similar programs to provide detailed problem reports to SGI

  • IRIX® Execution Environment (Base Compiler) (compiler_eoe.sw.unix), v.7.2.1 or later is required. If you do not yet have this installed, you may install it from the IRIX® 6.5 Foundation-1 CD

  • Standard Execution Libraries (C++) (c++_eoe.sw.lib), v7.2.1 or later is required. If you do not yet have this installed, you may install it from the IRIX® 6.5 Foundation-1 CD

Troubleshooting (top)

"tar" or "check sum" error
If the you encounter a "tar" or "check sum" error, then the tar file probably didn't download properly. Occasionally, because of the size of the tar file, demand on the server, congestion on the internet, and/or type of internet connection a user has, the whole tar file doesn't make it all the way across to the users location. Try downloading the tar file again at an off time, maybe early morning. If the error message you got was something different, it might help us to know what it was.

Not enough disk space to complete installation:
If you run out of disk space during the download you will need to make some room on your disk and begin the installation again.
Suggestions: Search for large files using Search Book or use Software Manager (in manage software mode) to remove software you don't use.

Not enough disk space for downloaded software to unpackage:
If this happens, save the downloaded distribution images, make some room on your disk, then drag the icon for the directory containing the distribution into the Available Software drop pocket in Software Manager or type the location of the distribution directory into the text field.
For more information, select Specifying the Location of Available Software from the Software Manager help menu.

Conflicts Resolution:
Choose Resolving Installation or Removal Conflicts from the help menu in Software Manager.
