Sorry, I did not read the entire thread because your spacing is terrible and everything is mashed together. Two things though; First, have you Googled your issue at all? The second or third result for "How to install CUPS on solaris 10," is :

http://www.lengers.com/index.php?opt...aris&Itemid=61

there is apparently a Sun package that comes on the Companion CD for the Solaris 10 OS, which means that you don't need to do all of this silly compiling from source. Second, have you ever compiled something from source on a unix type system? Because the first thing you should be doing after you untar the source is CD'ing into the unpacked directory. There is a INSTALL.txt inside there that give you specific instructions for how to build the application. I am all for helping you out, but it seems that you haven't even read the slightest documentation. If you are trying to help out your unix admins with an issue, you should at least prep yourself by taking some time to get acquainted with the in's and out's of unix. Not knowing to set your path, and to CD into the source directory to read the application specific compile instructions just means that you are asking for the entire process to be difficult. I am in no way trying to be an ass, just merely saying that you should read a little bit more before you attempt to compile applications from source. Even experienced unix SA's have difficulty compiling things, a beginner is bound to run into many additional issue's.

But ofcourse..............i am not acquainted with Sun, Linux or Unix. I am student consultant for Windows at the university and this is my summer job in the IT. I took this up for myself not for anyone else. Their priority right now is something else so i have taken this up sun CUPS issue. Your comments are well justified and NO! you are not making an ass of yourself :-) I just dont know and yes am asking too much hence, i am simply asking if someone has the instructions or who is free to guide. Obviously i google each problem i face but people on the net themselves are confused as i have mentioned earlier in my thread. Thats why its more tuff. The guys here have given me a resource to solve the issue and that is the internet. No manuals or sorts.
I help people with Windows..which is many times spoon feeding. Time is what matters. If i dont have the time or i feel i cannot guide thru, i atleast give some direction or info sites....Thanks to you for what all you have done. Am cool and I dont feel bad on what you wrote.

Time for me to leave as it is going to be 4:30pm. Will see what the world comments on my thread to help me out. Google is what i have.

Bye.........till tomorrow

Try that link that I posted. CUPS is provided by SUN/Oracle on the companion CD in package form and will, from what i can tell, require no compilation on your part.

Well! SFWcups, SFWgcmn, SFWoscp, SFWespgs, SFWgcc34l packages are missing, every other package exists but these. I downloaded "sol-10-u10-companion-ga.iso" because that's the one i need as per the version, i have installed and checked in the release file. Quite strange is it not. Great link and with all the steps but the packages you actually need are not existing in the "iso" companion link. SA user this is the link you gave :- http://www.lengers.com/index.php?opt...aris&Itemid=61
I may not know but i can follow.....if the things are rightly mentioned. More than 20 sites, i have been to, something or the other is not right. Anyways, I will continue.....

I am not sure what companion CD these are from, but here is a link to the SPARC SFW packages:

https://juilliard.broward.edu/solari...parc/Packages/

you will have to figure out how to pull them down from the site, as there don't appear to be datastream versions of the packages.

I made sure the path to GCC works which the default one which is installed in advance as per the command already mentoned in the threads.
Later i pathed into the tared directory of cups 1.6b1 in the root and executed ./cofigure. All seems well except for the last line:-
configure: error: unable to find the required library archive command. I believe it is talking about some libraries which i dont have. Based on the link <<http://www.cups.org/doc-1.1/sam.html#BUILDING_INSTALLING>> i need two kinds of libraries, CUPS imaging libraries and CUPS libraries. I have the first one. the second one is CDSA, TLS and OpenSSL Looking into it. The link says to go to ftp://ftp.easysw.com/pub/ but i have check there as well. Nothing. Mehn! why did i take this up?
SA user, the link you gave does have Sparc and i386. I have used the i386. Neither of the SFW packages mentioned on the link are available either in i386 or Sparc.

Right now i am concerned with :- "configure: error: unable to find the required library archive command" to which not able to find something logical. Mostly people on the internet are copy and past. For installations steps for anything in Unix, they have not mentioned what they did and how. Really Sad!. Once I am done with this. I will do so.

Helpers please keep in mind, I have mentioned in my earlier threads that i am on VM so using x86 and not SPARC

One part of my problem was solved this Wednesday. The GCC installation. Before every command you will see "#". That is just the prompt in this OS.
Download it from :- http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/
I had downloaded gcc-3.4.6.tar.gz ( you can also download gcc-3.4.6.tar.bz2 as well. It simply uses the more recent version of compression and it is better but makes no difference)
The default version installed in Solaris 10 is gcc 3.4.3 so i do not believe we need to install it again. The problem was i just had not set the path in "PATH" and got all confused and mixed up.
After i downloaded the file i placed it in the following directory :- /opt/csw/gcc3/bin
Run either of the two commands depending on which file you use.
#gunzip gcc-3.4.6.tar.gz
or
#bunzip2 gcc-3.4.6.tar.bz2 (you may also use #bunzip2 -d gcc-3.4.6.tar.bz2 where "d" is for decompress)
This decompresses the file. there are more switches to both gunzip and bunzip2 and you can find it on the internet if required
Then i use the tar command to extract it which creates a sub directory.
#tar -xvf gcc-3.4.6.tar (please do not type the gz or bz2 at the end like before)
tar is for- Tape Archiver
x - extract
v - verbose output (lists all files as they are extracted)
j - deal with bzipped file
f - read from a file, rather than a tape device
"tar --help" will give you more options and info

After this is done you need to set the PATH
#PATH=$PATH:/opt/csw/gcc3/bin (this command simply specifies which directory to be added)
#export PATH (this simply add the path with the other paths defined before)
#echo $PATH (this simply reflects all the successfully paths added)

Now you check the version of GCC
#which gcc (this will give you the path and the file to where it detects the gcc installation location e.g. #/opt/csw/gcc3/bin/gcc)
#gcc --version ( this will give you the latest version of gcc that you have installed)

Hope that was straight forward and simple to install GCC.
Enjoy and now i am still working on "configure: error: unable to find the required library archive command"

What you really need to do here, is work on the formatting of your posts. It is immensely difficult to parse through what you are writing without the proper spacing in your lines. That is first and foremost. Secondly, you should really be copying and pasting the exact output that you are receiving, along with the error. Use something like pastebin to show your complete output. Here is an example:

http://pastebin.com/4891785G

that is the output from my run of ./configure on the cups-1.6b source. Please paste yours so that we can get a better idea of what you are seeing.

Okay, I will be pasting the outs accordingly. However, whenever i type any paragraph, it is directly into the message box provided and it is readable to all my office guys here however, i will start to use word for better reading.

I really hate to point this out, but it doesn't seem like you even Googled for this error. The very first result in Google pertaining to the search is specific to CUPS compilation on Solaris 10.

http://marc.info/?l=cups-bugs&m=121601040511545

Here is the link to the Google search:

https://www.google.com/search?q=conf...ient=firefox-a

There are several threads dealing with this same question. You should read and try those suggestions first. If my link doesn't work, then I would suggest trying to Google "configure: error: Unable to find required library archive command."

I dont know which is the head or tail for this error. I believe there is no straightway of installing CUPS. I am simply putting days and days troubleshooting one error after the other. Most of the Linux, Solaris books dont give you the steps and what all directories need to be set, they just start off like "after you have installed the CUPS" we now come to printer configuration. I know i too am missing on some steps but...
Now i will be searching on this new error.

make install error :- Different one

I am told by the CUPS.ORG people that there are 2 bug and i need to use two steps to solve them. Let us see what happens.
1).There is a bug for this one filed STR #4097
2).This is a known bug in install-sh; you can grab a fix from: http://svn.easysw.com/public/cups/trunk/install-sh

Sorry for the delay....I got occupied on some other projects...I will soon back on this one.
