Hi,
I am trying to install a product distributed as a pax file.
When I run the pax command: pax -rvf paxfile I get:

Java is installed (both 31 and 64 bit versions) , but if I issue the java
-version command I don't get the expected response.
The expected response would be something like:
java version "1.8.0_181"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 8.0.5
The problem wsa with unicode service - the scuntbl library.
This file cannot be renamed.
Once I renamed it back to sys1.scuntbl, pax and java worked.

I did not see the original question but "macros are too old and will not
