[daip] AIPS installation issue

[Sayali Avachat]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am trying to install AIPS on my Linux machine (Fedora 15, Gnome version
6.0.1).
I am running the binary installation and followed the steps in the install
guide provided on website.
After the installation start (step 11), I came across following error -
__________________________________________________________________________
Data disk assignments:
DADEVS.PL: This program is untested under Perl version 5.012
  (Using global default file /data/solo/AIPS/DA00/DADEVS.LIST for DADEVS.PL)
DADEVS.PL error - no disks selected at all
This is a FATAL error and nothing in AIPS will work.

*********************************************************
HELP!  No Defined data areas!  You can proceed now to run
program FILAIP, but you may see LOTS of complaints about
not being able to access the message file.  If you think
there should have been some data areas defined, please
check DADEVS.LIST or .dadevs files, or AIPSASSN.\*
*********************************************************
If you want to proceed, enter YES (uppercase) now:
AipsWiz: Error: FILAIP did not work, or there's a missing file!
AipsWiz: Error: This may mean that FILAIP did not work (it should have
AipsWiz: Error: created it and many other files in that area).
AipsWiz: Error: You can try running it by hand after (a) dotting the
AipsWiz: Error: LOGIN.SH file or sourcing the LOGIN.CSH file; and
AipsWiz: Error: (b) Typing 'RUN FILAIP'.  You will then be asked for
AipsWiz: Error: two parameters.  Use
8 2

AipsWiz: Error: as the standard values.
AipsWiz: Error: You will also have to RUN POPSGN if that works;

AipsWiz: Error: Feed it

0 POPSDAT TST


AipsWiz: Error: when it asks for Idebug, etc. and press RETURN when
AipsWiz: Error: you see the '>' prompt.



AipsWiz: Install Wizard stopping.  Current settings saved in ~/.AIPSRC
AipsWiz: Abandoning ship!  Goodbye.
____________________________________________________________________________

I remember defining data areas during installation and can see them in
DADEVS.LIST and NETSP files.
I have set the $AIPS_ROOT and data area defined in the format -
 $AIPS_ROOT/data_area , where data_area is replaced by actual name of the
disk.
What could be going wrong here?
Any help is appreciated. Please let me know if you need any more
information.
Thank you so much,

Sayali Avachat
