1157.0. "DFA 4.1 broken pak?" by AOSF1::kras (Cyber-Shredder) Mon Feb 03 1997 21:15

I just loaded the latest version (4.1) of DEC Fortan from the January
UNIX COnsolodated SW distribution and ran into a snag.

When I try to compile, I get the following message:

% f77 paranoia.f
License is invalid for this version of the product
% f90 paranoia.f
License is invalid for this version of the product
%

But I do have a pak loaded for each f77 and f90: (see below for the fortan
pak)

This pak is off the internal PAK system and has worked for the previous
versions of Fortan I've loaded.  Whats more, I can't find any different
Fortan PAK for Digital UNIX on VTX PAK either!  What pak am I supposed to
use, and where can I get it?

1157.1Your PAK is just oldWIBBIN::NOYCEPulling weeds, pickin' stonesTue Feb 04 1997 08:1813
>   Product Release Date: 6-JUL-1995

The PAK's you get from the internal system are good for
all versions of the product released over the following
year.  FORTRAN V4.1 was released more than a year after
you got your PAK.  You need to get a new version of the
same PAK, which will have an updated Release Date.

(Note that Release Date is different from Termination
Date, which is when the PAK expires.  PAK's from the
internal system don't expire -- I think the only ones that
do are the Temporary Service PAK's that the CSC gives
out to customers who are stuck somehow.)

You'll also need to "lmf delete" the old PAK before loading the new one.
