I wanted to install the OSELAS.BSP-Phytec-phyCORE-i.MX27-6.tar.gz.

As per the documentation I have installed the ptxdist1.0.2 successfully.

Then When I started with toolchain1.1.1
I got succeeded in link creation with

> ptxdist select ptxconfigs/arm-v4t-linux-gnueabi_gcc-4.1.2_glibc-2.5_linux-2.6.18.ptxconfig

Then I gave the command as
> ptxdist go

I got the following response

"Proxy request sent, awaiting response... 407 Proxy Authentication Required ( The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied. )
2009-10-07 15:00:21 ERROR 407: Proxy Authentication Required ( The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied. ).


Could not get packet via http!
URL: http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/gdb-6.6.tar.bz2"


Now the problem is I can't get the proxy permission. But I have downloaded that gdb-6.6.tar.bz2 from the given link.

Now how to configure it to get installed from the local file?

Or is there any other way to install the toolchain?

If you installed the original software from the .gz file, you should be able to install this as well. Take the file, uncompress it into a folder somewhere, go into that folder, and read the directions. You can either use the bzip2 command or the tar command, to uncompress that file (read the man pages).

You don't say what distro you're using, but you can also probably type in something like "yum install gdb", and have it done for you...

As you have told I have installed the manually downloaded gdb. After that once again I tried to install the toolchain as it is mentioned in the Documentation. Still same error comes...
That means during the execution of "ptxdist go" still system is trying to connect to http to download the gdb package.

If we know how to disable the downloading action and ask the installer to use the local setup file, it will be easy I guess!

Is the above process will work?

If so How to change it? Is there any specific file for that?

Look through that script, and see if you can tell where the request is, and modify it accordingly.

If not, try to create proxy authentication files. The man pages for wget are a good source for info, specifically pay attention to the "--proxy-user" and "--proxy-passwd" options. Put both of them into a $HOME/.wgetrc and/or a $HOME/.netrc file, and try again.

Thanks for your valuable replies!

I have downloaded those packages and kept in a installation folder /home/ram/ptxdist_Source_Directory and gave
>ptxdist go
it worked! thank you so much!
