LINKworks V3.0.8 on WNT/SQL

Customer is attempting to create a historical cell.

He prepared the historical cell from his lnxbm backup that he had previously
made with the pool. This procedure completed successfully. He used D:lnxhist\db
and  D:lnxhist\pool 

He created a new data device (celltemp) in SQL as per the installation guide.

He then went to invoke instcell chosing 4) install a historical cell
He used port 17016 and gave a database name (also celltemp)
He selected his newly created data device for the installation

D:\LNX\LNX308\SRV\NTISQL\servers\dbint: {Microsoft] {ODBC SQL 
Server driver] [SQLserver]CREATE DATABASE: allocating 12800 pages

2110.3Fails for me too ...TAV02::CHAIMSemper ubi Sub ubi .....Thu Feb 06 1997 09:1517
I just tried creating a historical cell on our system and I get the exact same
result.

Now, I noticed something else:

I created the db and pool just as in the management guide %oproot%\hist\db and
%oproot%\hist\pool

When instcell asked for the pool directly I entered %oproot%\hist\pool BUT I
received en error that there is no such directory.

Now, we just received the December CD and installed it, but it didn't make any
difference.

Thanks,

Cb.

No, its not.

First a NICE call. Officially you can't issue an IPMT without
escalating the NICE first.
