Hi
A customer is running dxadvfs on several systems without problems but they
cannot start it on two systems, one 8200 and one 4100 running v3.2G and
ASE 1.3.
When they try to start dxadvfs they get
dxadvfs: unable to initilize logging subsystem
# setld -i | grep AFA

and in dxadvfs.log they can see a strange message

fatal|***|log.c|line 603
cannot get messages text for code:1
Any ideas?

Take a look in the /usr/lib/nls/msg directory. I don't have a 3.2x system handy to find out what should actually be there, but if you have systems where dxadvfs does work, see if you can find out what the difference is. --Ken | |||||

Hi Ken, And thank You for the answer. Yes, You where right. One link, POSIX, was missing. We manually created it and dxadvfs started up without problems. That link is supposed to be created at the installation of AFAADVGUI320, I don't know why it wasn't. # grep POSIX /usr/.smdb./* /usr/.smdb./AFAADVGUI320.scp: if [ ! -e /usr/lib/nls/msg/POSIX ] /usr/.smdb./AFAADVGUI320.scp: (cd /usr/lib/nls/msg ; ln -s en_US.ISO8859-1 POSIX) # cd /usr/lib/nls/msg # ln -s en_US.ISO8859-1 POSIX # ls -l /usr/lib/nls/msg total 16 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 15 Apr 11 14:49 POSIX -> en_US.ISO8859-1 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root system 17 Apr 10 11:59 en_US.88591 -> ./en_US.ISO 8859-1 drwxr-xr-x 2 root system 16384 Apr 11 14:49 en_US.ISO8859-1 # ls -la /usr/lib/nls/msg/en_US.ISO8859-1 total 785 . . -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 4503 Jan 30 1995 dxadvfs_api.cat -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 903 Jan 30 1995 dxadvfs_ehandler.cat -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 19772 Jan 30 1995 dxadvfs_gui.cat -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 594 Jan 30 1995 dxadvfs_log.cat -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 2371 Jan 30 1995 dxadvfs_mon.cat . . # grep POSIX /usr/.smdb./* /usr/.smdb./AFAADVGUI320.scp: if [ ! -e /usr/lib/nls/msg/POSIX ] /usr/.smdb./AFAADVGUI320.scp: (cd /usr/lib/nls/msg ; ln -s en_US.ISO8859-1 POSIX) /Mikael | |||||
