1585.0. "Problems with Installation of ULTRIX kit (DECmcc V1.2)" by PAKORA::CMACDONALD () Thu Oct 03 1991 06:48

Hi,
 After installing SQL on my DECstation 5000-200 and getting that to work I
then attempted to install DECmcc. Everything was fine until I got this message



This user will become the database administrator (DBA) for
the database and will subsequently be the only user who can
create shared repositories in the database. If you wish to
have a different user as the DBA, that user must configure
DECmcc for ULTRIX under his/her login id.

Checking for running ULTRIX/SQL servers...

*********************** N O T E ************************
You must be in multi-user mode when configuring the
DECmcc for ULTRIX databases.

Do you want to continue [y/n]?y

These are your ULTRIX/SQL processes:

  419 co I      0:00 iigcn II
  448 co I      0:00 iidbms II 1029

  513 co I      0:00 iislave 1 0 2 1 @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
  546 p0 S      0:00 grep ii

Checking for export database
Creating export database mcc_exporter_rdb
sh5: createdb: not found

Has anyone seen this ? 

What have I done wrong ?




Thanks in advance

1585.1Need to execute SQL setup scriptTOOK::MINTZErik MintzThu Oct 03 1991 08:0514

In order to be able to issue SQL commands, your process must have
the some SQL environmental variables set up, and the SQL executable
directory added to your path.  This is handled with the command:

% source /usr/kits/sql/sqluser.csh

The installation script used to check to make sure this was done
before trying any SQL commands.  I'll enter a QAR to make sure this
gets fixed again.

1585.2I didn't install the Exporter FM and it installed ok, but...PAKORA::CMACDONALDFri Oct 11 1991 09:3315
I managed to install DECmcc with no problems when I didn't install the Exporter
but I'm having trouble with using DECmcc. I tried to register a DECnet Phase 
IV node and when the template was displayed for entering the nodes detail it did
not ask for a DECnet address. I then tried to add the node and got a MCC Routine
error - %MCC-E-IO_ERROR, error was returned by I/O facility. I'm just trying to
use it the way I used DECmcc on a VAX host. 
 
Another point, I have a utility calld DXTOP which displays loads on my 
DECstation. When I start DECmcc the CPU utilisation turns into a solid black
band averaging 78% - 85%!! Is this normal.

Thanks in  advance

    Did the IVP and installation run normally?
    
    Try the following from the command line interface
    
    DIR MCC 0
    
    and post what happens.
    
1585.4Re-installed DECmcc & IVP complains about II_SYSTEMKIRKTN::CMACDONALDMon Oct 14 1991 09:339
I re-installed the DECmcc BMS and that seemed to go o.k until the IVP 
complained about an symbol called II_SYSTEM. I believe this is a symbol
used by SQL which I have not installed on my workstation. I was led to believe
that as long as I didn't use the DEmcc Exporter FM I would not need SQL.
I don't want to instaall SQL as I known nothing about it.

:-(

This probably means that you are trying to write to the MIR without
having write access to the /var/mcc/*.{dir,pag}.

This problem is being investigated.


RE: II_SYSTEM error in IVP

This was a bug in the IVP.  It has been corrected.  As a workarround, just

setenv II_SYSTEM

before running the IVP.

1585.6I ran createdb by handANDRIS::putninsHands across the BalticsTue Oct 15 1991 21:4215
re: .0

I had the same problem, so I looked at the setld installation script,
and did the createdb by hand:

createdb mcc_exporter_rdb

Once the database exists, the configuration script runs OK.  I wrote it
off to the fact that I was using ksh, not sh or csh, but I didn't
pursue it any further.

By the way, the installation manual states (on page 2-6) that you can
initially create the databases from an account other than superuser by
running setld -c from another account.  This does not work because
setld only runs under root.
