It goes through the install and simply goes fail fail fail....etc with no reason or log file

My last attempt had a java error, which supposedly got resolved with a java install.

[root@ls00063p ~]# yum install java

There is one or more optional unresolved issues. It is highly recommended to fix
it all before you continue the installation. You can fix it without exiting from
the installation and re-check. Or you can quit from the installation, fix it and
run the installation again.

Could you please help me with architecuture, OS version,GNU gcc version and Intel Composer XE 20011 package ID? It would be nice if you could submit the issue to http://premier.intel.com.

Certain linux distros (including a few which should have been "supported") came with a preset symlink to gcj set in /usr/bin/java. If you tried
java -version
or
ls -l /usr/bin/jav*
you would see that this was not a symlink to Sun JRE or a clone.
The Intel debugger installation did not work unless you first removed that symlink.

After further questioning see below:

1. What version operating system are they trying to install on, what manufacturer?

*** redhat 5.6

2. What machine type are they loading it on?

Linux os, with a filerbackend. The linux box is a 64-bit machine

Linux ls00063p.encana.com 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5 #1 SMP Mon Sep 20 07:12:06 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

3. Are they using Intel Flexlm license manager

*** We haven't got there yet. Hopefully will run on flex 10.8 or greater

4. What other errors are they getting ?

During install (./install.sh as root ) I got a needs g++ error.

We installed g++ and restarted. -> yum install gcc-c++

We then got a

Missing optional pre-requisites
-- No compatible Java* Runtime Environment (JRE) found

so we installedjava-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.16.b17.el5 (yum install java )

on the local box.

Then the install seemed to think it was good to start. but...

we got failures on each module.

I am going to do a fresh start starting with tar -xzvf 1_ccompxe_2011.7.256.tgz

One note: we don't run the internet on the linux box, so I downloaded it to a windows box and

moved it to the linux box. Same with the license. Which I then ran dos2unix against the license file.

Hope that helps.
