Debian 4.0 IA64

Hey Guys,

I have a dell 3250 with x 2 1.4ghz Itaniums. I'm running debian IA64 64bit. I have an issue with the steam hldsupdatetool.bin binary as it will not extract its files after I do:

chmod +x
hldsupdatetool.bin
./hldsupdatetool.bin
type yes and press enter

after that nothing happens.

Any Ideas?

Dan

RE: Debian 4.0 IA64

I think the update tool uses bunzip or something similar to extract the files, you might not have it installed...

I've seen it before but i'm sure it left a message saying exactly what it couldn't find...

make sure your machine has bunzip, gzip etc

'whereis bunzip2'

'whereis gzip'

'whereis gunzip'

etc etc etc

you should get

[srcds@126423-web1 /]$ whereis bunzip2
bunzip2: /usr/bin/bunzip2 /usr/share/man/man1/bunzip2.1.gz

RE: Debian 4.0 IA64

try to do the first symlink needed by steam for extract:

Code:

ln -s /bin/gunzip /bin/uncompress

my server:

Code:

Last login: Tue Apr  1 16:20:01 2008 from hpheineken20.hbc.local

Linux 2.6.21.5-smp.

,--==(12:21 PM)==--==(root@serv1)==--

'--==(~)==--> whereis gunzip

gunzip: /bin/gunzip /usr/bin/gunzip /usr/X11R6/bin/gunzip /usr/bin/X11/gunzip /usr/X11/bin/gunzip /usr/man/man1/gunzip.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/gunzip.1.gz /usr/X11/man/man1/gunzip.1.gz

Guys,

At some point I did manage to extract the steam binary however the server will not start up due to loads of errors.
