I had this error when I had a duplicate fileset in the directory
I was installing from.
# ls
gettext-0.21-2.aix7.1.ppc (1).rpm
gettext-0.21-2.aix7.1.ppc.rpm
I had both these two coded on my geninstall (by accident).
#geninstall -d directory -p -Y \
'gettext-0.21-2.aix7.1.ppc.rpm gettext-0.21-2.aix7.1.ppc (1).rpm'
This produces the error. So check the filenames being passed
to geninstall. The error went away for me by removing the (1)
file from the geninstall command. I guess it doesn't like
the spaces or parentheses that came from windows.
Hi,
When posting please line wrap to 70 characters.
Many people will ignore questions unless formatted
for use by a proper newsreader :)
But, that seems odd, what shell are you using ?
I have used Files similar to that on AIX, but the only issue
I have seen were inside Shell Scripts. I just moved off of
AIX, so I cannot test, but is geninstall a script ?
Unless using some ancient shell, try prefixing the spaces and
parentheses with a '\'
