Message925

Hello,

I just installed jython-21.class on a RH 9.3 system,
running IBMJava2-141. 

I executed the graphical installer and it got partway
through the installation (as indicated by the progress
bar) and then paused with a message "error while
copying ACKNOWLEDGMENTS to
/usr/local/jython/jython-2.1/ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:
sun.io.MalformedInputException". The installer gave me
the choice to ignore, so I did. Then the installer
continued for a bit and paused with another
MalformedInputException. I ignored that one too. There
were several such exceptions, and I ignored them all.
Eventually the installer terminated normally. 

Also I got a few checksum errors. I ignored those too.

As far as I can see, all files were successfully
installed except for the 10 or so that generated
exceptions. I'm guessing those files are missing from
the installation or something.

Jython rocks! Keep up the good work.

PS.
Here is a list of the files that caused
MalformedInputExceptions:
