5652.0. "MCC won't start on VMS V5.5-2?" by WARABI::CHIUANDREW () Sun Oct 10 1993 23:48

Hi,
    
    After I 've upgraded my VAXstation from VMS5.5 to VMS V5.5-2 (CD from
    May 93 distribution), then I got the following errors when re-start
    BMS:
    
    
! error log of MCC after upgrade to VMS V5.5-2
NISMCC> @sys$startup:mcc_startup


The MCC_STARTUP_BMS startup procedure for DECmcc V1.3.0 is now running.

    *****************
    Could someone provide me an pointer when the MUP for DECmcc BMS?
    Or should I need any CMA patch?
    
    Thanks in advance for help!

5652.1Check out the correct dateVNASWS::ANDREASMon Oct 11 1993 06:547
Andrew,

have a look at your system time and date.
Maybe during the upgrade the correct date is set back to a year later.
I had the same problem too.

best regards Andy

I suspect at least 2 problems here.

1) You have installed some product with a more recent version of
   CMA than the one shipped with DECmcc.  This produces the warning.

2) You have some DECmcc process running while you attempt the installation.
   This produces the error relating to the dictionary.

>%MCC-E-WRONG_CMA, Current version of CMA is incompatible with DECmcc

This has already been discussed in this conference, though I don't
remember the topic numbers.

There are 4 CMA files in sys$common:[syslib] that were replaced during 
the VMS upgrade:

	CMA$LIB_SHR.EXE
	CMA$OPEN_LIB_SHR.EXE
	CMA$OPEN_RTL.EXE
	CMA$RTL.EXE

The version shipped with VMS is incompatible with MCC. So you have to
restore the MCC versions either from the backup you did before the VMS
upgrade (didn't you ;-) or from the MCC kit (don't know the saveset).
