    I am installing xlC v9.0 in my aix 6.1 server(model 9133-55A). Here's the error message I got:

    I was downloading from IBM web site "October 2007 PTF for XL C Enterprise Edition for AIX, V9.0" package - vac.90.aix61.oct2007.ptf.tar.Z

    http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=2222&context=SSTJ5T&dc=D400&uid=swg24017389&loc=en_US&cs=UTF-8&lang=en&rss=ct2222rational

    Can anyone assist me to resolve this issue? The server only install 6.1. Why it needs 5.2 and 5.1 filesets?

    Thanks,

    David H.

    Your real issue is that you are trying to install a PTF on top of nothing. i.e. To install a PTF/fix/patch, you'd need to have the "base" software already installed. You need to get a copy of the base xlC software.

    Hi Orphy,

    Thanks a lot. I am new to AIX and doesn't know the difference base of software. So I went back to the original CD and install the files. It looks working now.

    Thanks a lot,

    IBM XL C/C++ for AIX is a separate licensed program product than the AIX operating system, and must be purchased separately. Once you have purchased licenses of the compiler you would then have access to downloads its base install images. (Alternatively, you could order media containing the base install images.)
