I just installed fine mysqlmonitor-1.3.2.9126-solaris-sparc-installer.bin on a Solaris 10 Sparc 64 system, no install problems seen, the service-manager asks as expected on the 1st setup page for the credetials. The md5sum of the package I used is bcd61cf6c63ce02b665f77dd46d2cb70 - so at least I cannot see a 'general' problem here.

Bitrock - could you help us with this please? Is there any way can debug this further with the installer?

Can you ask the customer to do export INITDEBUG=1 and then run the application, see what he gets?
