2951.0. "decw$startup trouble shooting method." by EWBV04::NAGANO (Yuji Nagano , CSC/Tokyo Support engineer) Tue Jun 19 1990 01:51

On VMS V5.1, I could submit DECW$STARTUP to get a startup log file.
On VMS V5.2 and V5.3, DECW$STARTUP is called from the SYSMAN STARTUP 
database.
So, how can I submit DECW$STARTUP to get startup log file ?
Or, any other measures available to get it ?


Thanks in advance,

    I don't know of any way to submit decw$startup and get a log
    file. When I need to do troubleshooting, I let the system boot
    up and dw startup fails. Then I kill off any DW processes that
    did get started, do a set verify, and then interactively
    invoke @decw$startup. Maybe it's not pretty, but it works OK
    for me.

    You can inhibit the automatic DECwindows startup by putting the
    following line into your SYSTARTUP_V5 procedure:
    
    	$ DEFINE/PROCESS DECW$IGNORE_DECWINDOWS TRUE
    
    Then submit the DECW$STARTUP job yourself.
