Troubleshooting: Incomplete Install on Linux Server

What could be the reason for eFORMz – Host Tools – Unix – Install failing to install many folders and files? This can happen when eFORMz is installed in a non-default location (such as drive D:) on Windows and the correct ‘from’ directory was not selected during the install to Unix or iSeries. The most likely cause is that the install from location did not contain any files.

For reference, below are two install logs. To force the conditions, an invalid from and to directory were used. (\minisoft\eformz_6xx and /minisoftxx)

The first demonstrates a permission issue.

The second shows the results of not having a valid from directory.

Currently, this issue is not visible unless the “Show Log” button is pressed. The Host installer dialog only shows “Installation Complete”
