Hi experts,

we are using InstallAnywhere2009 Enterprise, and we are having the hang problem, it blocked us for two weeks.

we tried "Execute Command", "Execute Script/Batch file" and "Execute Target File" actions, but all of them hanged, and never go to next step even the shell script seems was executed successfully.


Execute Command: sh -c "$ETL_FILES_DIR$$/$shell$/$install_ips_bods.sh"
Execute Script/Batch file: sh -c "$ETL_FILES_DIR$$/$shell$/$install_ips_bods.sh"
Execute Target File: $USER_INSTALL_DIR$$/$install_ips_bods.sh

content of install_ips_bods.sh is as below.
#!/bin/sh

# Install IPS
/opt/HP_Universal_SLAM_BO_ETL_CGL/etl_files/IPS_Installer/DATA_UNITS/SBOP_IPS_lnx/setup.sh -r /opt/HP_Universal_SLAM_BO_ETL_CGL/etl_files/IPS_Installer/ips.ini InstallDir=/opt/HP_Universal_SL
AM_BO_ETL_CGL

# Install BODS
/opt/HP_Universal_SLAM_BO_ETL_CGL/etl_files/BODS_Installer/setup.sh -r /opt/HP_Universal_SLAM_BO_ETL_CGL/etl_files/BODS_Installer/bods.ini InstallDir=/opt/HP_Universal_SLAM_BO_ETL_CGL


can someone help?

Does the script really takes 1 hour to run?!?

Hi Vlad,

I resolved the hang problem, here is what I did in install_ips_bods.sh.

./setup.sh -r $USER_INSTALL_DIR$/etl_files/IPS_Installer/ips.ini InstallDir=$USER_INSTALL_DIR$ 2>/dev/null 1>/dev/null
./setup.sh -r $USER_INSTALL_DIR$/etl_files/BODS_Installer/bods.ini InstallDir=$USER_INSTALL_DIR$ 2>/dev/null 1>/dev/null

I just appended "2>/dev/null 1>/dev/null" to "setup.sh....".


Anyway, thanks for your reply.
