CAUSE:

• neither the "less" nor the "more" pager programs are in the $PATH.

• OR -

• $PAGER variable has options register utility does not handle

SOLUTION:

• install "less":

• apt-get install less  # Debian based distributions (including Ubuntu and derivatives)

• yum install less  # Red Hat based distributions (including Fedora and CentOS)

• alternatively, install "util-linux" (contains "more")

• apt-get install util-linux

• yum install util-linux

On most distributions, these are installed by default.  If you find that both "less" (typically in /usr/bin) and "util-linux" ("more" is typically in /bin) are already installed, ensure that both /bin/ and /usr/bin are in root's $PATH variable.  Consult your shell documentation for details.  In bash, you may set the PATH variable temporarily in the shell like so:

• export PATH=$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin

If both "less" and "more" are in nonstandard paths, you'll need to adjust the $PATH variable accordingly.  Once this is complete, run the register utility again.  If this does not resolve the problem, because the $PAGER variable has extra options the register utility doesn't process, temporarily set the pager to a default value like so:

• PAGER='less' ./register  # assuming the register utility is in the current directory

This will set the $PAGER value to "less" for just that invocation, keeping the normal variable intact.  If this still does not resolve the issue, please contact Digium Technical Support at +1.256.428.6161, or  contact us through the web:  http://www1.digium.com/en/support/contact
