942.2CDE was running.COMICS::EDWARDSNDulce et decorum est pro PDP programMon Jan 27 1997 08:487
CDE was indeed the workstation stuff running at the time.
It seemed a little odd that it informed me that it wasn't INSTALLED
not that it wasn't running.
Still. I'll try and get an output from another install.
Stand by.

Neil.
942.3Here's what I saw having installed from a Motif session, rather than CDE.COMICS::EDWARDSNDulce et decorum est pro PDP programTue Jan 28 1997 08:4376

So it tells me that I haven't got Motif installed even from the DECWsession type 
window manager.

Interesting.

I'm not that bothered about it, but it is sort of a nuisance in a way.

If you want a screen shot, I can give you one.

Hi Neil,

I just installed PCA with same DECwindows you are using, but I did not get any
problem.

Please make sure the following file in your system :

$ dir sys$library:DECW$DXMLIBSHR.EXE
$ dir sys$library:DECW$DWTLIBSHR.EXE
$ dir sys$library:DECW$TRANSPORT_COMMON.EXE
$ dir sys$library:DECW$XLIBSHR.EXE
$ dir sys$library:DECW$XMLIBSHR.EXE
$ dir sys$library:DECW$XTSHR.EXE


If one of these file missing, you will get the message:
         DECwindows Motif is not installed on this system
