Hi,
I have installed (upgraded) my aips software to 31DEC06 using tarball
downloaded on 15 Dec. The system was recompiled with gnu 2.95.3 compiler
on Thunderbird AMD linux machine with REDHAT 9 in KDE environment.
When running, all was working except msgsrv and teksrv servers. These two
servers opened xterms without a title string at the top and the following
error messages in the xterm windows:
------------------- msgsrv:
AIPSmsg: Can't execvp $LOAD/MSGSRV.EXE ; sleep 3 : Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu
[chris at chris chris]$
------------------ teksrv:
AIPStek: Can't execvp $LOAD/TEKSRV.EXE ; sleep 3 : Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu
[chris at chris chris]$
-------------------------------------------
Please notice the command prompt.
After some digging I found that the problem is with a code
in 31DEC06/SYSTEM/UNIX/XASERVERS
I have changed it in 2 places to the previous version of the code
from older AIPS I had, and now everything is working! The changes I made
are as follows:
-------------------- XASERVERS:
...
ei6 "Start graphics server TEKSRV on $TVHOST, DISPLAY $DISPLAY"
($AIPS_TEK_EMULATOR -display $DISPLAY $AIPS_TEK_NAME_FLAG \
$AIPS_TEK_EXE_FLAG $LOAD/TEKSRV.EXE &)
sleep 3
#!!!!!!!!!!!!!
# $AIPS_TEK_EXE_FLAG '$LOAD/TEKSRV.EXE ; sleep 3 ' &)
else
...
ei6 "Start message server MSGSRV on $TVHOST, DISPLAY $DISPLAY"
($AIPS_MSG_EMULATOR -display $DISPLAY $AIPS_MSG_NAME_FLAG \
$AIPS_MSG_EXE_FLAG $LOAD/MSGSRV.EXE &)
#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
# $AIPS_MSG_EXE_FLAG '$LOAD/MSGSRV.EXE ; sleep 3 ' &)
else
------------------------------------
Best regards,
Krzysztof
