Issue/Introduction
I have downloaded nimldr and ran it on a Linux box but I 'm not able to complete the robot installation.
When I run the install I'm stuck at the point where the script asks where the install files are. See example below:
[[email protected] LINUX_23_64]# ./nimldr

This program will help you install the Nimsoft infrastructure components (such as a robot or a secondary hub) on the current system.
You will be given a series of questions, default answers are in brackets.
Example: <Question>? ==>[default]
Pressing Enter directly will use the default value, otherwise you should
type in the requested information.
If express installation is specified, the default value will be used
automatically.
A log of the installation can be found in the file: nimldr.log
Hit Enter/Return key to continue.

Environment
Release: Any Version
Resolution
The installation files can be fetched directly from the UIM Server by nimldr. However, If you have told the installation script that you do have the installation file locally:
i.e.:
Do we have the installation file locally?
==>[no] yes
Then verify that you have previously:
1. Downloaded the installation archives from http://<UIM_server_name_or_IP_Address>:<wasp_port>/uimhome/installers.jsp (same place where you may download the nimldr package from the Nimsoft Home Page, /uimhome) and,
2. Placed them into a local folder and then specified the folder path at the nimldr question below:
i.e.:
Where do we have the installation file(s)?
==>[] /tmp
Additional Information
It's important to note that the filename needs to adhere to the following nomenclature: install_LINUX_23_64.zip
If the filename is install_LINUX_23_64-7_91.zip, for example, nimldr will never find it.
