|
| | | | Problem | When Following the infocenter documentation to update the Sametime privacy information running the upgrade_util.sh fails with:
"Bad or missing arguments".
Usage: ./upgrade_util.sh <domino-bin-dir> <domino-data-dir> [ <upgrade-util-filter-file> ]
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/sametime/v8r0/topic/com.ibm.help.sametime.802.doc/Standard/st_inst_migrating_aixsolarislinux_t.html?resultof=%22%75%70%67%72%61%64%65%5f%75%74%69%6c%2e%73%68%22%20
Infocenter advises to
1. Run chmod u+x upgrade_util.sh (runs successfully).
2. Run the upgrade util using the following command:
upgrade_util.sh <domino_program_directory> <sametime_server_data_directory> [ <upgrade_util_filter_file> ]
Note: [ <upgrade-util-filter-file> ] is optional, but the script fails whether the file is supplied or not. | | | | Symptom | | Upgrade Utility script fails to run on Unix based systems. | | |  | | | Diagnosing the problem | In review of the code in the upgrade_util.sh the following files are being validated. (stserver, java, sametime.ini).
#
# Check the directories: a simple, to make sure their meaning is well understood
#
if ${test} \! -e "${domino_bin_dir}/stserver"; then
exit_usage
fi
if ${test} \! -e "${domino_bin_dir}/java"; then
exit_usage
fi
if ${test} \! -e "${domino_data_dir}/sametime.ini"; then
exit_usage |
The default data directory is /local/notesdata
The default program directory is /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux
If you are running into a usage error it is likely these checked files do not exist in the paths being specified above for your particular install.
For instance, stserver is in the /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux folder under some installations.
| | | | | Resolving the problem | Enter the the specific path to these files during execution of the script,
Search the installation directory for the stserver binary. Your java binary will also exist in the same directory. When you find this directory you will need to specify that on the command line so this command will work.
The below executed works in 8.0.2.1 testing as the path to stserver, java and sametime.ini is being supplied during execution of the script. If you receive the Usage message again verify the stserver, java and sametime.ini files are in the folders you are specifying.
Script executed from the /local/notesdata directory:
./upgrade_util.sh /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux /local/notesdata | | | | | | | | | |
