831.0. "A1V3 install - missing images" by BAHTAT::63778::SYSTEM () Mon Jun 08 1992 19:31

    I have tried installing ALL-IN-1 (V3.0) on the BPS system (Business
    Protection Service) for a demo in the morning. It has failed. Note - it
    failed AFTER all the checks were ok, and AFTER 2 hours...
    
    This is the final message of death from the installation procedure:-
    
    
        Installing the ALL-IN-1 File Cabinet Server
    
    
        This installation provides the File Cabinet Server startup file
        OAFC$STARTUP.COM into SYS$STARTUP. This file starts a server as a
        detached process.
    
        The File Cabinet Server startup is run by A1V30START.COM

    -RMS-E-FLK, file currently locked by another user
    
    
    
    What image is the above worried about? The DNS type images are
    installed correctly (identically to those on my VAXstation - that is
    currently running ALL-IN-1 V3.0 perfectly happily).
    
    In the installation, I said no to DTR, yes to WPSplus and no to ACMS.
    
    Any help as usual will be appreciated

    Andy,
    
    It shouldn't be DNS this time (for a change) since it failed at a point
    where it is building the deferred image activation stubs such as
    OACONVSHR etc etc... 
    You really have two choices.
    
    1) repeat the install with OPTIONS D so that you can see where it is
    failing.
    2) switch off deferred image activation (A1$DEFER) but as the install
       deassigns all symbols you'd have to hack (customise) KITINSTAL.COM
       to do it.
    
    Obviously option 1 is safer - my money (17c) is on it being a VMS or
    DECWINDOWS image.
    
    regards,

    As I recall, local symbols work, so
    
    $ A1$DEFER := whatever it is supposed to be
    $ @VMSINSTAL 
    
    should work, unless KITINSTAL.COM deletes local symbols.  Normally
    VMSINSTAL only deassigns global symbols.

    I seem to recall that when I was upgrading a system to ALL-IN-1 v2.4
    and had set interactive logins to 0 I got a message complaining about a
    file (when it was trying to link I believe).  Could this be a
    possibility?  Once I set interactive logins higher I was able to
    install okay.
