hi,

i have been able to install avira av on at least a couple of ubuntu OS's, but it doesn't work on tinycore (YET).  i have included the output of the terminal.

creating /usr/lib/AntiVir ... failed

1) installing command line scanner
copying bin/antivir to /usr/lib/AntiVir/ ... failed

This system is probably not supported by Avira AntiVir Workstation (UNIX).
 
root@box:/home/tc/antivir-workstation-pers-2.1.12-19#


i have also ran the command:
mkdir /usr/lib/Anti


here is more relevant info after this command is ran:


creating /usr/lib/AntiVir ... already exists
1) installing command line scanner
copying bin/antivir to /usr/lib/AntiVir/ ... failed

is there any chance of getting this to work on tinycore?

Frank:
You were able to manually create the /usr/lib/AntiVir directory, so this does not look like a permission problem.

A "shot in the dark:" I could imagine that Avira's installation script expects the GNU tools to be installed, and that it uses command line parameters for "mkdir," "cp," "install," and "mv" that are unknown to the busybox tools.  Do you have the GNU tools (coreutils, and perhaps also util-linux) installed?

Hello Frank,

"Avira's installation script expects the GNU tools to be installed

I didn't know about such tools, so the answer is no.  great suggestion.
I will look through the appbrowser and see what is offered.

thanks for the reply.

ejames82:
i installed gnome-utils.tcz

it was the only extension that i could find that i thought met the criteria.
i'll see how it works, perhaps i need to reboot as well.

looks like it's not going to work.
thanks for the suggestion Frank.
