GOAL:
How do I install on UNIX if I don't have root permission on the machine.
CAUSE:
When installing Progress on UNIX the Proinst will not continue with the installation if you are not ROOT.

| |
|INSTALLATION ERROR (301): You must be logged in as root to perform the |
|Progress Software Installation. |

| [Enter=OK] |

FIX:
If you have access to a separate machine you could install on the second machine (you will still need to be root on the second machine).
Tar the directory you just installed into.
Transmit the tar to the second machine.
Untar the tar on the second machine.
Modify (recursively if possible) the ownership and group of the directories and all files to an appropriate owner and group on the main machine.
Modify all scripts in the $DLC/bin directory and $DLC/proload/eucapp directory to correct the references to DLC which will be set to the actual install machine and might differ from the final destination machine.
A grep of DLC * should find most of the references which should be changed.
