Hi

The guys managing our US IBMi servers are now trying to install
5770OPS. They have installed the product and all PTFs, but it is still

foobar.

First and foremost no symbolic links have been created in /usr/bin

PASE code never installs anything to /usr/bin. If links are created, it
will be in /QOpenSys/usr/bin (in default PATH for PASE shells, but not
QSH).

for the “node” and “npm” commands.
Despite that, even if you navigate to QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/Node/
bin and execute the node command it fails:

node -v
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program node because of the following

errors:

0509-150 Dependent module libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.1)
could not be loaded.
0509-022 Cannot load module libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.1).
0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name
does not exist.

Sounds like something else needs to be there that 5770OPS does not
install (ssh perhaps)?

Many options in 5733-OPS are dependent on 5733-SC1 for OpenSSL (libssl.a
and libcrypto.a) as well as zlib (libz.a).

I am not sure how or why IBM are making such a pigs ear of this.

Sorry, I don't understand this expression, but I'll assume it's not good.
We do document this on developerWorks, though it could be a little more
clear:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/IBM%20i%20Technology%20Updates/page/How%20to%20obtain%20the%20new%20Open%20Source%20for%20IBM%20i%20Product%20-%205733OPS

Anyone seen this before?

Thanks
Kevin
