How to register on AIX with command line
Hi,
I have problems running InstallAnywhere 2009 build on AIX.
I installed "InstallAnywhere Command-Line Build" only.
The error is:
use:
BUILD FAILED
/swsd/project/cstore/home/csbuild/buildIA.xml:23: No InstallAnywhere location found: null
Now I am thinking that I have to register IA2009 (enter the serial number) in any way. But I get no hint how to do that.
I have found following sentence:
On a Mac OS or Linux-based or Unix-based machine, execute the following command:
./build -register
But inside my IA2009 install directory I do not have a build executable!
Any help is appreciated.
Regards Stephan

find -name build\* returns anything?

This would be because the IA Installation is not successful.
Re-install your IA using the following command from the command line
./install.bin -i console
Once the Install of IA completes register the IA with the below command.
./build -register 1234-3456-2345-1234
Now the registration will be successfull.
Thanks,
Indraneel.

Hi,
nothing returned except the build directory inside ./resource/build.
The install directory itself looks like the following:
....: IA2009sp1>ls
COPYRIGHT Uninstall isus
CustomCode UninstallerData javadoc
IAClasses.zip XML Project File Tools jre
IALicense.htm buildlog.xml lax.jar
IAReadMe.htm console.txt licenses
InstallAnywhere docs manual
InstallAnywhere.lax graphics plugins
OfficeSuiteSourceFiles gui-test-auto project-auto
PULog.txt iatemplates resource
Could it be that the reason for the missing file is that I installed
the IA 2009 SP1 only (- I did not installed the SP version on top of GA! -)
What can I do to get the missing build executable.
Regards Stephan

I still do not have the build binary after re-install.
May it comes from the following I get when installing:
[/swsd/project/cstore/home/csbuild] ./IA2009sp1_AIX.bin -i console
Preparing to install...
WARNING: /tmp does not have enough disk space!
Attempting to use /swsd/project/cstore/home/csbuild for install base and tmp dir.
Extracting the JRE from the installer archive...
Unpacking the JRE...

Well, it's only a warning: by default IA decompresses its resources in /tmp and if there is not enough space on the partition where /tmp resides it attempts to use the home directory (obviously, this might fail if both are on the same partition, but in that case the installation won't even start and you'll be prompted to define via a variable where you would like to have the temporary installation files being stored). If this is not your case then it's really bizarre you luck the build executable.

Hi,
thanks for the replies...
Installer does not ask for a different temp file location. Installation seems working fine with a success message at the end.
BUT no build executable. Is there any other way to register this product?
What should I do in my case?

The main issue is that, as far as I know, build is the binary used for building IA installers... so if you don't have you can't build installers at all!...

I used to use the build.exe on windows. Because of the missing file I wanted to try the ANT build task.
