Language Pack installer freezes when several processes are running on a Unix system

Technote Number: 1214044


Problem:
This issue was reported to Quality Engineering as SPR #TSUA6927SU and has been
fixed in release 6.5.5.
Excerpt from the Lotus Notes and Domino Release 6.5.5 MR fix list (available at
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus):
Install/Setup/Registration
SPR# TSUA6927SU - Running ps -ef command from the installer will not respond
when many processes are running. Because, the Java buffer will be filled out by
output of the command. Changed the installer to get standard output and
standard error output by using other thread.

Refer to the Upgrade Central site for details on upgrading Notes/Domino.

The Language Pack installer uses a "ps -ef2 or "ps -efl" command to see if the
Domino server is running on a Unix platform; however, the command never returns
if several processes are running on the system. To work around this issue, shut
down as many processes as possible.


Running SLP653 on the console freezes:



The debug log of the language pack installer (LPLog.txt) stops at this point:

Install Type selected : Add language packs to the server..

The Java buffer to read output from the command fills up.
