46.0. "PROBLEM - MCC$EXEC Instal fails" by CCIIS1::ROGGEBAND (_ �hili��e _) Tue Jan 30 1990 12:12

    Hi,
    
    I have tried installing the IFT MCC$EXEC010 which was "advertised"
    by mail two weeks ago.
    
    The kit I have was built on 22-DEC, and has two savesets :
    
    MCC$EXEC010.A 		450 Blocks
    MCC$EXEC010.B		33138 Blocks
    
    Alas, the installation fails with a something_like_this message :
    
    "Did not find new file MCC$STARTUP.COM"
    
    I had a look in the KITINSTAL.COM and in the savesets and found that
    KITINSTAL appends something to VMI$KWD:MCC$STARTUP.COM and then
    tries to move it to SYS$STARTUP: so I guess that's where the problem
    is. Anyone else have this sort of problem, or is it my system ?
    
    BTW, I'm running VMS 5.3, I have all the required quotas, I'm logged
    in the system account, with all the privileges set.
    
    Any ideas ?

46.1I had no problems in the IFT installation.BYBLOS::TAMERTue Jan 30 1990 12:536
re .0

I am also a user of the MCC IFT kit. The system manager of my group installed
it last week. I have been using it since with no problems.

    If I am right you should find this problem listed in the release
    notes. We have found that with the IFT kit some times this happens.
    Usually the kit has installed fine (the mcc$ files should be in
    the sysexe and syslib directories), all you need to do now is to
    run the mcc$startup procedure yourself and you should be off and
    running.
    
    BTW: did you install across the net or copy the savesets locally?
    We know what is happening to cause this just not why.

    Hi,
    
    I had a look at the release notes but did not find anything (I probably
    looked in the wrong place ! :-)
    
    Despite the message, the installation does indeed seem to have
    succeeded. It was a local installation.
    
    I don't know if anyone has reported this, but if I type a
    <space><return> sequence at the MCC Prompt, MCC exits with :
    
    %MCC-E_INV_ENTITY, Invalid entity structure.   

    Cordialement,
    
    Philippe.

    yes the space return (as well as tab return) problem has been
    qared and will be fixed with the update kit.
