INVALID: File comparison failed for: /<installdir>/SAS_9.1/...

You will also see a window:

A problem was encountered while installing: SAS Foundation Would you like to continue with the remaining installs

If you responded 'yes,' you do not need to re-run the install. However, you do need to run the hotfix cleanup script.

Since the script was not run before the upgrade, the Installation Qualification failure is expected. This failure does not imply that upgrade failed.

Run the script when upgrading to SAS® Enterprise Miner™ 5.3, Credit Scoring for SAS® Enterprise Miner™ 5.3, or SAS® Text Miner™ 3.2. The script assumes that all products will be upgraded to the latest release at the same time. If not all products are upgraded at the same time, the hot fixes for the products that were not upgraded will need to be reapplied after running the script.

Note: This applies only to upgrades and does not affect new installations.

You can get the necessary software from one of two locations, your SAS media or from a download site:

1. Go to http://ftp.sas.com/techsup/download/hotfix/uinst913.html and download 913hotfixcleanup01.tar into !SASROOT.
   
   
2. If the UNIX machine does not have Internet access, download the file to a machine that does have access, then copy it over to the UNIX server you will be upgrading.
   
   
3. Extract the contents of the downloaded file using the tar command; for example,
   
   tar -xf $SASROOT/913hotfixcleanup01.tar
   
   The contents of the tar file, including hotfixcleanup.sh, should be extracted to the $SASROOT directory.
   
   
4. Log on to UNIX with a valid SAS ID. This ID must have write permissions for the files in SASROOT.



5. Place the script file in the SASROOT directory. Once the script has been copied, give the file executable permissions. For example:
   

      chmod a+x hotfixcleanup.sh
   

6. Run the script from the command line. You do not need to pass any arguments. For example:
   

      hotfixcleanup.sh
   

7. As the script finds each hot fix that needs to be removed, you will be asked to confirm. Answer Yes each time you are prompted. A list of all hot fixes to be removed is displayed before removal. After completion, a message appears to indicate that it was successful.



8. When the script has finished running, it will give a successful completion message.
   
   
9. Run this script on every UNIX machine on which you are upgrading SAS® Enterprise Miner 5.3, Credit Scoring for SAS® Enterprise Miner 5.3, or SAS® Text Miner 3.2.
