  • 1.  curl command issue with AIX

    Posted 2 days ago

    Hi Mates,

    I need to use curl command on AIX 7.2. But, curl command is not there. To install curl command there are many dependencies. Could you please suggest how I can proceed with it.

     rpm -ivh curl-8.0.1-1.aix7.1.ppc.rpm
    error: Failed dependencies:
            ca-certificates >= 2021.2.52 is needed by curl-8.0.1-1.ppc

    When I ran a command to check with

    "/usr/bin/curl -vvv https://qagpublic.qg1.apps.qualys.eu"
    exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /usr/bin/curl because of the following errors:
            0509-150   Dependent module libcurl.a(libcurl.so.4) could not be loaded.
            0509-022 Cannot load module libcurl.a(libcurl.so.4).
            0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

    I am getting above errors. Could you please suggest a solution. Thanks.

    As noted on the AIX Toolbox for Open Source Software download site, the AIX Toolbox team recommends using DNF to install and manage Open Source software packages and dependencies.
