DataStage Server Installation issue on Solaris 10

Hi All,

we are installing DS 7.5.3 on Solaris 10 and the installation hangs at this point

Unpacking support libraries - ERROR: cannot unpack libdslic.so


Excerpt from dsinstall log file - First run


cpio: Bad magic number/header.
1 errors

Excerpt from dsinstall log file - Second run

cpio: Can't read input: end of file encountered prior to expected end of archive.

Checked the /tmp space and it has ample space. We moved (ftp) from windows client machine to Solaris and I made sure that we have dot (.) at the end of these directories

solaris/dbengine/startup.
solaris/server.
setup.

What else could be the issue ?

Appreciate help and feedback from users.

Thanks

The error is from cpio. Get another copy of the software. Somewhere in the image you have a file header is invalid.
