Installing 10GB NIC Driver

[mwieting0511]

I am trying to install A HP 10GB NIC (NC550SFP+) in my Vsphere Host (6.0).  The file type has a .scexe file extension.  When I try to run the .scexe file I get "line 1: syntax error: unexpected newline

Hello mwieting0511,

Have you tried logged in as root? (hard to tell from picture as don't see from start of line)

Use 'ls' to verify that file 'install.scexe' exists at that location.

Is the driver available as a vib?

If it is then you can use esxcli to install:

kb.vmware.com/kb/2137854

U need to use a \ before

.\install.scexe

if you found my answer to be useful, feel free to mark it as Helpful or Correct.

Hello,

No ranchuab, ./filename.extension is the correct format not '\'  .

Have you made it executable?:

# cd /tmp

# chmod 755 install.scexe

or

# chmod +x install.scexe

No it is not a vib and i did give correct permission to the file.
