2408.0. "Unsuccesfull transfers from tape::->Amiga" by GVA05::BERGMANS () Tue Aug 07 1990 13:11
I am experiencing problems in trying to get software from the network
into my Amiga.
Let me give you an example.
1. I copy from tape::user2:[amiga.fish.ff012]amiga3.zoo into my
account VMS account.
The descritpion of this program in ff012 is:
amiga3d Shows a rotating 3 dimensional solid "Amiga sign".
No source available, executable only (downloaded from
a Denver BBS)
.................
2. I "UnZOO" it within my VMS acount and that generates two files:
AMIGA3D and 3DOBJECT.
3. Using Kermit on the VAX and on my laptop, and with the VAX in
"server" and "File type binary" I copy both files onto my laptop.
4. I bring the laptop home.
5. With Kermit on the Laptop in server mode and on the Amiga in
"Image mode" I "GET" the two files on df0:
6. When I try to run these files I get:
"error 103" for one file, and "not an object" fo the other.
This is just a step by step description of one example. I did numerous
transfers all had similar problems.
For checking purpose I tranfered the two file back to the laptop,
and did a file compare between the original and retransferd files.
The compare came out OK.
I always get the files that I want into the AMIGA but none of the
programs will run. Documentation and text files seems to be OK.
Do I do something grossly wrong??
Regards

Sorry, I don't have its location at hand.
