Hello!
I am Solaris 5.10 beginner. For begin acknwledgment this OS I nee one solution. For my first problem which don't allow me begin is for me very difficult and I can't nowhere find resolve. It is going on simple for experienced user thing: I absoolute need and must install StarOffice 8 on my Solaris. In zip archive there are four files: *.jpg, *.bin, *.cue, *toc and nothing more. I try various method to try install Staroffice - xhost+, chmod a+x, ./, sh in random queue just, but one problem is non sotp showed me csnn't execute binary file. I do not know what to do further. thats only one information and solution, which will for me enough.I beg everyone who knows, how install StarOffice 8 on Solaris 5.10, please write me detailed how can I do it. I will be very gracefully and at last I can will begin this OS. This software packet is absolutely for me necessary without it I can't begin.
Sincerely - Norbert Cielecki.

1st.
Why S10? Why not S11 or OmniOS?
What hardware, SPARC or x86?
Why not LibreOffice?
Where did the SO8 zip file come from?
Here? https://archive.org/download/sun-staroffice-8
Did you get the correct zip file (SPARC or x86)?
The bin file is the executable
A Solaris 10 compatible OpenOffice 2.2.1 is still available for download
from CSW:

What you have there is not a Solaris install package?it?s a CD image
dump. The .bin file is the actual image, and the .cue/.toc describe the track layout. The .jpg is irrelevant.
On Solaris 10, you cannot ?run? those files directly. You must either
burn the .bin/.cue to a CD, or convert/mount it as an ISO.
Simplest options:
1) On another system (Linux/BSD), convert it:
bchunk file.bin file.cue output.iso
2) Transfer the ISO to Solaris, then mount it:
lofiadm -a output.iso
mount -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1 /mnt
3) Install StarOffice from the mounted directory.
If you skip this step, nothing will install?because you?re not dealing
with extracted software, only a raw disc image.
PS learn to wrap.Very,very thanks for help. I do not know that exists command bchunk on Unix, about cue files I just gorgot that long ago were used to build iso images. From this way my confusion.
