Log on as root.
Place the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
Mount the CD-ROM. Usually, it gets mounted to /mnt/cdrom.
If so, enter the following command:
mount /mnt/cdrom
At a command prompt, change to the CD-ROM directory.
If the CD-ROM was mounted to /mnt/cdrom/, use the following command:
cd /mnt/cdrom
Start the setup script by entering the following
command:
./setup
The setup script prompts you with information about
installing SQL Anywhere Studio for UNIX. Enter any information you
are prompted for, and press the Enter key to continue.
By default, SQL Anywhere Studio is installed into a directory
named SYBSsa7 under /opt/sybase on Solaris, Linux, and HP-UX, and
under /usr/lpp/sybase on AIX. You can specify another installation
directory if you wish.
After installation, you should follow these instructions if
you are running either TurboLinux 6.0 or Caldera 2.2.
For TurboLinux 6.0 only, change to directory /usr/lib and
create a symbolic link using the following command.
ln -s libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
For Caldera 2.2 only, change to directory /usr/lib and create
a symbolic link using the following command.
ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++-2.9.0 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
Each user who uses the software must set the necessary environment
variables for Adaptive Server Anywhere. To help you do that, the
installation program puts two script files, asa_config.sh and asa_config.csh,
in the directory /InstallDir/SYBSsa7/bin. InstallDir is
the directory where you chose to install Adaptive Server Anywhere.
Depending on which shell you're using, enter the appropriate
command from InstallDir.
Table 5.
If you're using this shell... | ...use this command. |
sh, ksh, bash | . ./SYBSsa7/bin/asa_config.sh |
csh, tcsh | source ./SYBSsa7/bin/asa_config.csh |
You may also want to insert the above commands into your copy
of .profile or .bash_profile to have the environment variables ready
every time you log in.

CDROM is the directory where your CD-ROM
is mounted, which is usually /mnt/cdrom/.
InstallDir is the directory where you
chose to install Adaptive Server Anywhere.
The first two directories are put into the path by asa_config.sh
or asa_config.csh, so if you've already executed one of them as
mentioned in the previous section, you won't have to change directories
to get to most of the executables associated with Adaptive Server
Anywhere.
