856.0. "MIR could not be initialized..." by VINO::LUNDGREN (John - ISB/ASAP SSE - 297-5537) Mon Apr 01 1991 12:07

I am getting the following installation error when installing the
V1.1 SSB BMS kit on one of our workstations. Please note that
this workstation uses the same private namespace as a workstation
that had no problems with the V1.1 SSB installation.

Does anyone have any insights?

Thanks,

John

856.1	A couple of things to try...	TOOK::GUERTIN	I do this for a living -- really	`Mon Apr 01 1991 13:56`	17
	The last time I saw this problem, the system had it's time set wrong. Are you using DECdts (DTSS) ? Also, please post the following information: $ DIRECTORY/SIZE/DATE MCC_SYSTEM:MCC_MIR*.DAT results of $ SHOW LOGICAL MCC_TDF and $ SHOW TIME Thanks, -Matt.
856.2	The date was wrong	VINO::PRATT		`Mon Apr 01 1991 14:38`	10
	Bingo... the date was set to 1-APR-1990 not 1991. Obviously operator error however the error message doesn't help very much. Thanks, Mark
856.3	I think the MIR / System time behavior is QARed.	TOOK::GUERTIN	So many bugs, so little time	`Mon Apr 01 1991 15:38`	7
	Yes, it is ugly. Are you sure there isn't an April Fool's prankster running around? What are the odds of the system time being off by one year on April Fools day? BTW: VMS in general can get very confused (never mind products like CMS), when the system time is set incorrectly. -Matt.
