3672.0. "server dies almost immediately" by LNGBCH::SCHNEIDER (pluto) Thu Nov 15 1990 19:46

    I've been searching for mention of this for a while and haven't
    found it....
    
    I just finished upgrading to VMS 5.4 and decwindows IFT V3.
    When I try to start DECWINDOWS the server process just dies.
    Once it actually displayed a login box on the screen and even
    output and ACCVIO message on the monitor but for the most part
    it just "goes away" the only way I can tell it's an accvio
    is that I turned on accounting to watch processes and it
    captures that as its last message.  I'm dead in the water
    right now.  Since I haven't been able to find mention of this
    I assume there is something wrong with my configuration.
    Doeas anyone care to investigate?
    
    Help!

3672.1More information neededSTAR::VATNEPeter Vatne, VMS DevelopmentThu Nov 15 1990 20:3011
If it is truly the server that is dying, then you should see something
in SYS$MANAGER:DECW$SERVER_0_ERROR.LOG.  Please feel free to post the
contents here.  However, if the error at the end is an ACCVIO (error
status #12), then you should just simply QAR the problem (see note 2).
Use the DECW-V3-INTERNAL QAR database.

I'm puzzled about the "ACCVIO message on the monitor".  If the server
dies or LOGINOUT dies, I don't believe you get any message.

Are you sure it is the server that is dying, or LOGINOUT?  Did you
turn on image accounting?
