1076.0. "V3.0 instal failure" by STRIKR::THATCHER () Mon Jul 20 1992 11:59

    I tried to upgrade my 2.4 system to V3.0 over the weekend.
    Unfortunately the installation failed with the following error:
    
    
    
%VMSINSTAL-I-MOVEFILES, Files will now be moved to their target directories...
%DELETE-W-SEARCHFAIL, error searching for $1$DUS100:[SYS0.SYSUPD.A1030]CM_PRE_MO
VE_OASCT.SCP;*
-RMS-E-FNF, file not found
%RENAME-E-OPENIN, error opening $1$DUS100:[SYS0.SYSUPD.A1030]OAN$SAMPLE_CONFEREN
CE.NOTE;1 as input
-RMS-E-ENT, ACP enter function failed
-SYSTEM-F-NOPRIV, no privilege for attempted operation
%VMSINSTAL-E-INSDFAIL, The installation of A1 V3.0 has failed.
    
    
    
    The protection on the provided file was:
    
    
    
Ted> dir $1$dus100:[sys0.sysupd.a1030]*.note/sec/dat

Directory $1$DUS100:[SYS0.SYSUPD.A1030]

OAN$SAMPLE_CONFERENCE.NOTE;1
                     12-MAR-1992 09:36:38.09  [SYSTEM]              (RWED,RWED,R
E,RE)

Total of 1 file.

    
    
    I have subsequently renamed the file to NOTES$LIBRARY without any
    problem, which is what I thought the kit would be trying.
    
    I installed from the SYSTEM account which has all privs. I'm upgrading
    from 2.4 to 3.0 on VMS 5.4-3.
    
    My kit is dated 23-MAR-1992 (US_GB 24-MAR-1992, A1POST030.A
    16-APR-1992). My log file is PILOTS::a1v30_instal.log.
    
    My one confession is that I removed MICA during last week and got in a
    bit of a state with OBJs and OLBs (and FLBs), but I assumed that the
    kit would be overwriting them.
    
    Any ideas ? thanks,
    
    Robert.

1076.1This is how it works...IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeMon Jul 20 1992 12:3726
    I'm sure you know that you can ignore the first error about
    DELETE-W-SEARCHFAIL etc...
    
    The installation does the following with the sample conference:
    
    	SET FILE/OWN=SYSTEM
    
    	IF it thinks that VAXnotes is installed THEN
    		provide the file to NOTES$LIBRARY
    	     ELSE
    		provide the file to SYS$HELP:[ALLIN1_EXAMPLES.BRITISH_EXAMPLES]
    	END IF
    
    The definition of "is notes installed" is: Is NOTES$SHARE in SYS$LIB,
    (and is the version V2.1 or greater) and is NOTES$LIBRARY defined (and
    does it point to a valid directory)
    
    I know the syntax of the Help directory isn't correct, but you get the
    idea.
    
    Remembering that VMSINSTAL runs with SET PROC/PRIV=(ALL,NOBYPASS) you
    should be able to work out what the problem is!
    
    Cheers,

1076.2Wrong protection on NOTES$LIBRARYSTRIKR::THATCHERMon Jul 20 1992 13:278
    
    NOTES$LIBRARY.DIR had protection of (,,,) with an ACL for NOTES$SERVER
    and rename failed with NOBYPASS.
    
    SET PROT and all seems OK
    
    Thanks Graham.
1076.3Note 1238 in 2HOT::VAXNOTES_BUGSIOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeMon Jul 20 1992 14:488
    I was going to post a note from the 2HOT::VAXNOTES_BUGS (Press KP7
    etc.) conference that explained what the default protection on
    directories should be, but I can't get to the conference right now.
    
    So instead, I'll post a pointer to the note (it's 1238) for people to
    consult when it comes back!
