The (ut4) on the end of the error message indicates you're getting an
SCCS version of bdiff.  Try it again from within a workon session
and your path should get you to the ode version.

Subj: 	Re: bdiff pb for show stopper.

I was within a workon session as I previously performed a kinit.
But you're right: the problem is :
% which bdiff
/bin/bdiff
% which bco
/usr/sde/tools/alpha_ace/bin/bco
When I give the latter path, it works just fine.

However, I don't know why, on my w.s, a bdiff sits on /bin ???

Thanks!!
Philippe.

Philippe,

This error is due to the wrong bdiff being used.  Check your path.  You're
picking up the system bdiff as opposed to the ODE bdiff. [The system bdiff 
on an OSF machine is /usr/ucb/bdiff, the correct ODE bdiff on osf would be
/usr/sde/tools/alpha_OSF1/bin/bdiff].

Subj: 	Re: bdiff pb for show stopper.

When you start a workon session, your .environment files get
sourced and the shell picks up your usual path. /usr/bin/bdiff
is a regular cmd that ships on every machine, however, it's different
than the sde version. To avoid this problem, try putting something
like the following in your .cshrc

set path=( /usr/sde/tools/`machine`_`uname`/bin $path )

to ensure that you pick up the correct one.

If you were in a workon session, then I suspect you have set your PATH
in .cshrc, overwriting the path ODE wants you to have.  Set your path
in .login only.

fyi: 	sterling users may start to complain about bdiff not working

Thanks to Carolyns help I found that bdiff was not working for me
once i installed sterling bl5.  This is because they moved the "bdiff"
on the kit from the OSFSCCS subset to OSFBASE.  Now if your path is
not set correctly you will not get the ode version of bdiff.

just thought I would pass this along so when others to start to
complain -you know why...

Hello,

I'm getting errors when I do a bdiff.

From a blog I know that the current version of the module esnmp_init.c is 
1.1.2.7.  Subsequent commands and results follow.  

  >bdiff -r1.1.2.6 esnmp_init.c 
  bdiff: cannot open file -r1.1.2.6

  >bdiff -r1.1.2.6 -r1.1.2.7 esnmp_init.c
  bdiff: Specify file segment size as a line number.


Any suggestions?

Thanks,
George Bankeroff

Subj: 	Re: bdiff

It would appear you're finding the wrong bdiff. Try 'which bdiff'. It should 
return /usr/sde/tools/alpha_OSF1/bin/bdiff. If not your path in set 
incorrectly for a workon session.

That file doesn't exist so there is nothing to bdiff against.  This file
exists in other language variants though

./cde1/localized/ko_KR.dt-eucKR/msg/dtsession.msg
./cde1/localized/fr_FR.ISO8859-1/msg/dtsession.msg
