Once downloaded the installation script you may encounter a trouble like this:
.../ssw/offline/swmaint/script/ssw_install.size: Too many arguments.
to overcome this is sufficient to insert the following lines in ".../ssw/offline/swmaint/script/ssw_install.ftpget"
and
".../ssw/offline/swmaint/script/ssw_install"
setenv SSW $HOME/ssw
setenv ssw_host sohoftp.nascom.nasa.gov
setenv ssw_sw_host sohoftp.nascom.nasa.gov
setenv ssw_tar_old_style ""
setenv ssw_sw_sets "ssw_ssw_site ssw_hinode_gen ssw_hinode_sot ssw_packages_binaries ssw_ssw_gen"
setenv ssw_db_sets ""
setenv ssw_passive_ftp 1
setenv ssw_noepsv
setenv ssw_skip_sizechk 1
Now from shell run manually these two scripts:
csh -f .../ssw_install.ftpget
and
csh -f .../ssw_install
Now your installation should be ok!
Hello Marco, how are you?
RispondiEliminaI've been trying to install SSW under Ubuntu and got this error message just like you described. I followed your instructions but still couldn't install it. When I run the scripts with the lines inserted I get the same error message.
I'm using the latest Ubuntu 10.04. Can you help me?
Thanks.
Ciao Marco, I've been with the same troubles that you've been and your instructions didn't help, but I've solved the problem setting the variable: ssw_nomail to 1
RispondiEliminaset ssw_nomail = 1
I change the variable inside ssw_install file.
It looks like the problem is on ssw_install.ftp when it tries to send an email and the mail program is not on the system:
if ("$ssw_nomail") then
...
else
$wmail -s "$subj" .... $memail < diagfile
endif
hope it helps to other people!
Cheers
The easier solution to this problem, is to call the installation script with the parameter /nomail, for example:
RispondiEliminacsh -f ./ssw_install120917_215201.csh /nomail
that will set the ssw_nomail to 1, without the need to explicitly modify any script.
By the way, this SHOULD be documented in the solar soft website :-)
Many Thanks Jeudy... it works pretty well.
