Product: MapMarker
Version: 8.3+
Platform: HP/UX
Category: Installation

Summary:
Installing MapMarker Unix remotely and Setup.exe is seen in upper case.

Question:
When trying to install MapMarker Unix 8.3 remotely on an HP-UX (v11.x) server, the CD-ROM drive must be mounted. After trying the following command:

mount -F cdfs -o rr /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /cdrom

and changing the directory (cd) to the CD-ROM, all the files are in upper case (e.g., SETUP.SH). The MapMarker files are actually in lower case (e.g, setup.sh), so the installation will not proceed.

How should the CD-Rom be mounted?

Answer:
When trying to mount the CD-ROM drive on an HP-UX 11.x server, there is a cdcase parameter that can be used with mount on HP-UX. For example:

mount -o cdcase /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom
