1126.0. "Translan AM Entity class not enrolled?" by GOYA::MERINO (Angel Garc�a Merino - ACT ENS Spain) Wed Jun 12 1991 06:30

Trying to register a Translan III from the iconic map I get the following 
message:

   Map Window Message: Entity class specified is not currently enrolled. 
                       Please check spelling.

In fact, the entity class is enrolled with the commands:

MCC> ENROLL MCC_TRANSLAN_AM MCC_TRANSLAN_AM
%MCC-I-ENRDUPLENTRY, enrollment successfull; duplicate entries found and 
replaced

From within the Iconic Map I can do a successfull test of the TRANSLAN_AM,
but I cannot do it from the FCL, the entity TRANSLAN_AM does not appear in
the list of management modules.

I reinstalled twice the software, building the parse tables, dictionaries 
and help. I think that I have some kind of corruption in the dictionary or 
in the parse tables. Is there any way of clean up them?

Any idea or suggestion?

Thanks,
Angel.

1126.1any errors during PTB?TOOK::HAOWed Jun 12 1991 10:0411
    I know you've mentioned that you rebuilt the parse tables, but I just
    wanted to double-check that you rebuilt them after installing the
    Translan AM.  
    
    It sounds as if the parser is not recognizing the Translan commands,
    since you can't access them from FCL and you can't register it from
    the Iconic Map (Iconic Map uses the parser when adding entities to the
    map).

1126.2Make sure that your latest parse tables are in MCC_SYSTEM:MCC_PTB_PARSER.BPTMCDOUG::MCPHERSONi'm only 5 foot one...Wed Jun 12 1991 11:164
And check for previous versions of MCC_PTB_PARSER.BPT lying about in 
likely areas (e.g. SYS$SPECIFIC:[MCC], etc).

The only message I got building the parse table was:
	...

	Processing entity 17 3 26

	Processing entity 17 27 22

Of course this rebuild was done after Translan AM software installation.

1126.4Problem solved!GOYA::MERINOAngel Garc�a Merino - ACT ENS SpainWed Jun 12 1991 13:385
Problem solved after moving the MCC_PTB_PARSER.BPT file from MCC_COMMON to 
MCC_SPECIFIC.

Thanks all,
Angel.
1126.5I love it when I'm right! ;^)MCDOUG::MCPHERSONi'm only 5 foot one...Wed Jun 12 1991 14:274
I only had to do that to myself about 5 or 6 times before I started just 
changing my default directory to MCC_SYSTEM before doing any PTB stuff...

1126.6where should the parse table live?PARZVL::KENNEDYThis ain't no partyMon Jun 17 1991 17:5412
>Problem solved after moving the MCC_PTB_PARSER.BPT file from MCC_COMMON to 
>MCC_SPECIFIC.

Is this the _right_ fix?  I've just noticed that I've got 
MCC_PTB_PARSER.BPT in both MCC_SPECIFIC and MCC_COMMON.  Seems to me that 
this should live in MCC_COMMON.  Could this be (or have been) a problem with 
installation of DECmcc or one of the extra kits?

Shouldn't we really move the current version into MCC_COMMON and get rid of 
any versions in MCC_SPECIFIC?

1126.7mcc_system is usedTOOK::CALLANDERJill Callander DTN 226-5316Wed Jun 19 1991 13:067
we use the mcc_system logical to find the parse tables. If you had to move
a copy of it from common to specific, that means you already had one in 
specific.

Note mcc_systme is a search list, specific to common.

you're right Jill, but what happens if you work in a VAXcluster enviroment
with different MCC Directors (Workstation Satellites). All MCC System files 
have to be located in MCC_COMMON (i.e. MCC_PTB_PARSER.BPT), or the user runs 
into the problem, that there can be different MCC System information on the 
Cluster available. That means i.e. each Satellite with DECmcc has its own 
Parse Table, so you have to install a MM on each Satellite.
