2914.0. "illegal instruction" by MICROW::LANG () Fri May 01 1992 15:35

    
    	I'm working on Ultrix with MCC 1.2 EFT, writing an AM, which
    	I've been working successfully with for about a month.  Today,
    	I got the following error: This is from running the 2 sessions, one
    	in debug, although the error occurs without debug.
    
    	This occurred after a successful enroll.  It is reproducable.

    this smacks of dispatching to a bad address.   Make sure
    MCC_MMEXE_LOCATION is the same anytime the MM is invoked as it
    was when it was enrolled.
    
    Stop at line 467 of routine im__dispatch.   Do a machine stepi until
    you hit a jalr instruction and then try to step into the routine
    and see if it point to a valid instuction.

    	Thanks,  I found out that the dictionary and mar were out of
    	synch.  In the executable (and I assume the mar), the entity name
    	was  4000, but there was no 4000 in the dictionary.
