We're in the process of installing LDM here in Wilmington, NC. Referring to
the latest ERH ATN on installing LDM 5.08, I have run into a couple of
small hurdles.
Specifically, Step 5 wants me to type source_profile at the prompt, as user
LDM. Should this be source .profile?
I type source_profile, and get the message source_profile: Command not
found.
I tried using
/usr/lib/builtins/source .profile
Did this accomplish what I needed to accomplish?
Second...
Our LDAD is using Perl 4, and therefore I need to create a symbolic link to
point to Perl 5.
I can't link /usr/contrib/bin/perl to /usr/local/perl5/bin/perl because
/usr/contrib/bin/perl exists.
Can someone offer more explicit instructions so I can proceed with this
installation?
Thanks for any help!
Carl Morgan

small hurdles.
Specifically, Step 5 wants me to type source_profile at the prompt, as user

command name is source and the input to the command is .profile.
I type source_profile, and get the message source_profile: Command not

Our LDAD is using Perl 4, and therefore I need to create a symbolic link to
point to Perl 5.
Since none of the ldad perl scripts use Perl 4 (look at any of them
and they call /usr/local/perl5/bin/perl, you could probably remove the
existing link and recreate to point to perl5. OR you could edit the
ldm perl scripts (ldmadmin is the main one) and change the first line
to /usr/local/perl5/bin/perl.
I can't link /usr/contrib/bin/perl to /usr/local/perl5/bin/perl because
/usr/contrib/bin/perl exists.
Can someone offer more explicit instructions so I can proceed with this
installation?

Carl,
It's possible that the install package you have may have had a script
named "source_profile" in it. Anyway, your best bet would be to
source the user's default profile (source ~/.profile). I should note
that our LDAD does not have a .profile in user LDAD's home directory.
We do, however, have a .cshrc which sets up the environment variables
and such.
I think Randy already suggested that you can change the "#!" line in
the ldmadmin script to point to /usr/local/perl5/bin/perl rather than
/usr/contrib/bin/perl. Another suggestion would be to alter your
$PATH environment (probably set in ~/.cshrc) and add
/usr/local/perl5/bin BEFORE the /usr/contrib/bin entry. This will
force the use of Perl v. 5.003 rather than v. 4 for any Perl scripts
which do not contain the "#!" line. You'll still have to change any
scripts, though, as Randy suggested that explictly call the older
version of Perl using the "#!" line or perhaps in a cron.

We're up and running now. The source_profile problem was the result of an
incorrect path, and the Perl4/5 problem was corrected by renaming
/usr/contrib/bin/perl before creating the link to
/usr/local/Perl5/bin/perl.
Thanks to Fred Pierce, as well as those who responded here!
