706.0. "PB WITH PARSE TABLE AND X11 ???" by MARS02::THOMAS () Mon Feb 11 1991 16:49

	I have some troubble with the DECWINDOW PRESENTATION of MCC.

	I installed DECMCC BMS on a station some days ago. Then i did a backup
of:

	* MCC_DICTIONARY.DAT
	* MCC_DEFINITION.DAT
	* MCC_MIR_ATTRIBUTE.DAT
	* MCC_MIR_DIRECTORY.DAT
	* MCC_PTB_PARSER.BPT

	Then, i installed the FDA and did the SNMP augmentation (i patched the
kit procedures to do that) to have RECORD and EXPORT for those entities.

	Up to that point, my X11 interface worked well.

	As i am not sure of the good working order of the SNMP augmentation
procedures, this morning, i restored the 5 files and ENROLL a new AM (the UB one
cf some previous notes). I mean that i did:

	DAP> LOAD CLASS UB ...
	DAP> LOAD CLASS MCC SUBCLASS UB_AM ....
	@MCC_HIST_AUG UB
	@MCC_EXPORT_AUG UB
	DAP> AUGMENT CLASS UB FROM MCC_HIST_UB.COM
	DAP> AUGMENT CLASS UB FROM MCC_EXP_UB.COM
	MANAGE/TOOL/PARSE
	DEF/SYS MCC_UB_AM ...
	INSTALL MCC_UB_AM/WRITE/SHARED/OPEN/HEADER
	MCC>ENROLL MCC_UB_AM

	Now, i did some tests (not yet a lot):

	. the UB AM works
	. the MCC command line works (i can create a new domain ...)
	. but, i have trouble with the MCC X11 interface; i can't OPEN A DOMAIN
or CREATE A NEW DOMAIN. If i do it, i receive this message
	"Map window message: "invalid verb specified""

	If i restored a previous PARSE TABLE:

	* the PTB after the BMS installation
	* the PTB after the SNMP augmentations

	then the X11 interface works well.

	I understand that the new PARSE TABLE is wrong. 

	But where is the error ?

	How can i fix it ?

	Regards,

	Bernard

706.1Where did you put the new parse tables?TOOK::GUERTINE = mccMon Feb 11 1991 17:307
    One common error is that the new parse tables get created in the
    CURRENT directory, not MCC_COMMON:, but when you run MCC, it looks for
    them in MCC_SYSTEM:.  It's a good idea to set default to the
    MCC_COMMON: directory first, then MANAGE/TOOL/PARSE to generate the
    parse tables.

    I did the SET DEF MCC_COMMON before the building of PARSE TABLE.
    
706.3try these commandsTOOK::HAOTue Feb 12 1991 12:159
    From the command line, try to do a "show domain <x>" command.  This
    is the format used when parsing the domain name that is specified
    in either the Open Domain or New Domain functions.
    
    Also, verify that the domain members exist by doing a "show domain x
    member *" command.
