In recent development to improve/overhaul the Ingres rpm installation and set-up some of the set-up process was moved from the rpm packages into the installation RC script and a %posttrans scriptlet was used to perform some of the preparatory set-up steps. Unfortunately, the %posttrans scriptlet was not being triggered on some versions of Linux and it was decided to remove %posttrans from the preparatory set-up stage as well as the RC script.
As a consequence if installing packages by-hand (not using the express install script or the GUI installer) the set-up process will not be run on any versions of Linux. Post installation configuration is initiated by running either:
service ingresXX configure [response file name]
or
service IngresXX start
- XX should be replaced with the instance code in the package name used to install with II by default.
- A response file name should be supplied with configuration values that differ from the default.
