Installing this patch

  1. Log in as root (or with administrator privileges on Windows).
  2. On Windows hosts, run cmd.exe; on Linux or QNX Neutrino hosts, start a command shell.
  3. If you're using QNX SDP 6.6, set up your environment:
    • On Windows hosts, run:
      base_directory\qnx660-env.bat
    • On Linux hosts, run:
      source base_directory/qnx660-env.sh

    where base_directory is where you installed QNX SDP 6.6.

  4. Download the patch-660-4209-QnxVoice301.tar archive to your host environment.
  5. Verify that the patch's checksum matches the one given on our website.
  6. Use the applypatch utility to install the patch:
    • If you're using QNX SDP 6.5 on Linux hosts (such as Ubuntu) that use sudo, you must specify the -E option to preserve the environment. In this case, the PATH environment variable is set to a safe one for security reasons, so you need to specify the full path to the utility:
      sudo -E $QNX_HOST/usr/bin/applypatch download_path/patch-660-4209-QnxVoice301.tar
          
    • On other hosts, type:
      applypatch download_path/patch-660-4209-QnxVoice301.tar
          

    where download_path is the location of the patch file. For more information about applypatch, see its entry in the Utilities Reference.
