AIK: "/usr/bin/nslookup: No such file or directory"
- Article Type: General
- Product: Aleph
- Product Version: 22
Problem Symptoms:
In the AIK (Aleph Installation Kit) step 1.1 ("Download Aleph software and third party products"), the Aleph script param_bash.ini, gets the error message: "/usr/bin/nslookup: No such file or directory".
And, in fact, there is no /usr/bin/nslookup file on the server.
See Additional Information below for complete log.
Cause:
Linux bin-utils package not installed.
Resolution:
Install the unix bin-utils package. nslookup is part of this package.
The necessary packages are described in Ex Libris Documentation Center > Cross-Product > Technical Documentation > System Requirements > "Operating System Requirements for Red Hat Enterprise Linux".
The equivalent document for Sun is "Operating System Requirements for the Sun Platform".
