    This is claiming that XAS is not executable - at least by you.
Did XAS build properly on your machine?

cd $AIPS_ROOT
source LOGIN.CSH
$CDTST
cd $LOAD
ls -l XA*

cd $YSERV/XAS
make

to build one now...

Send me the error messages.

How many tape drives are on your machine.  This implies that you told
it at least 9.  I think AIPS will not function well with so many.
