... and so I reran the IVP command procedure with verify, yielding the following: (This is just the bit which failed.) $! $! $! $! IVP FOR DAP $ MANAGE/TOOLKIT/DICTIONARY SHOW VERSION %LIB-F-DELTIMREQ, delta time required, absolute time supplied mrtie� show log mcc_tdf "MCC_TDF" = "+1:00" (LNM$SYSTEM_TABLE) Anyone any ideas on this? All of the other tests in this MCC_DIR_IVP.COM command procedure run fine. Its only this test which fails. Chris PS I'm about to install the toolkit too .. maybe this'll help.

OK, I installed the toolkit succesfully. And I compiled my MSL, but now I want to add it to the dictionary, but MANAGE/TOOLKIT/DICTIONARY still fails with the error: mrtie:2� manage/toolkit/dict %LIB-F-DELTIMREQ, delta time required, absolute time supplied mrtie:2� So, anyone any ideas on whats happening here, and how I can get DAP to run? Thanks Chris | |||||

Chris,
Apparently, there is a bug in the MCC Time initialization code when the
TDF is set to a positive number. An error is always returned when the
TDF is positive, however, only DAP signals it, the other components
(e.g., MCC) do NOT signal it, and therefore it does not get displayed.
The major use of the TDF value is for sharing of data between time zones
(or multi-time-zone communication) between cooperating MCCs. Since most
sites do not do these types of things (in fact, Distributed MCC is not
available yet), setting the TDF to a negative number is usually safe.
Set the TDF to "-1:00" and you should work fine.
-Matt.
