Installing on a Headless EC2 instance with root privileges.


Hello All,
I am trying to install a program residing on a headless EC2 RHEL6 64bit server on which I have root priveleges.

1. I unzipped the zip file of the installable in /mnt/dir1/Unzipped
2. cd /mnt/dir1/Unzipped
3. Output of ls command in this location shows the file "installc" among others
4. I need to run the command : installc --launcher.ini silent-install.ini -acceptLicense -log /mnt/dir1/Unzipped/log.xml
5. but it gives me a command not found error.

Any ideas on how to fix this or what I am missing?

...

installc is likely not in the $PATH so you need to provide a relative path directly to the executable.

Code:
./installc .....
Make sure that it has proper permissions to execute.
