13.0. "config file error" by FXODEV::ROBERGE () Thu Sep 03 1992 22:04

    HI,
      I just Installed the kit and the cm_cfg.dat file did not get created.
    Ther is nothing in /var/cm/data  The following appears if I try to go
    into the cm -e option.
    
    unx10 / 74  cm -e
    
    
    Cannot open input file /var/cm/data/cm_cfg.dat
    REASON: No such file or directory
    Starting Configuration Editor as background process - please wait ...
    unx10 / 75  X Toolkit Warning: I18NOpenFile: Couldn't open file
    /usr/lib/X11/uid
    /cmeditm_(null).uid - MrmNOT_FOUND
    MrmOpenHierarchy failed, status = 2
    
    
    I am very eager to get this going at our site.
    
    thanks

Hi Leon,

 
    
   > Cannot open input file /var/cm/data/cm_cfg.dat
   > REASON: No such file or directory

    This is not a problem as such. In the kit you have
    there is no default configuration file for CM to use.
    The first time you exit the editor to save changes it
    will be created. We have changed part of the install
    since this kit ( it will be avaiable very soon, and 
    there is a default file created in the installation
    if one is not found, so this message is not seen.

    What language variant have you got set for yourself.
    We supply two Motif uid fioles one for British English
    and one for American English. Are you using either of 
    these?

    Session manger customise Language either English GB
    or English US should work. This should put an entry in your 
    .Xdefaults file something like:

    *xnlLanguage:   en_GB
    
     Let me know how you get on. Also keep an eye on the kit 
    topic as there should be news soon.

    Cheers Simon.....

    Maybe I am missing something in my path but here is the newest error.
    
    fxorus /usr/users/roberge 19  more a.a

13.3.XdefaultsMANTA::SIMON? ..... Forty-Two !Fri Sep 04 1992 15:0619
Leon,

Simon is saying that your .Xdefaults file in your home directory should have the
folliwing line in it...

 *xnlLanguage:   en_GB

For example, my .Xdefaults is as follows...

DXsession.host_list:	MANTA::,NOTTM::,nottm.olo.dec.com,localhost,NORSE::,csudev.reo.dec.com
DXsession.num_hosts:	6
DXsession.x:	11
DXsession.y:	31
*xnlLanguage:	en_GB

hope this clarifies it.

Simon
13.4FXODEV::ROBERGEFri Sep 04 1992 15:196
    Thanks but..
     I added that and now the nul string was replaced with the 
    en_us.  Same error but diff syntax.
    
    thanks
    -Leon
13.5OPG::SIMONFri Sep 04 1992 15:2219
Leon,
	simon was almost correct, but as you are in the USA this
should read:

*xnlLanguage:	en_US

The language setting on Ultrix Motif appears to add extra characters
to the end of the Language variant string. The application uses the 
language resource to decide which uid file to use.

The work round is to edit your .Xdefaults file to contain the correct
line and then re log in. I have asked in the Motif conference whether 
this is a bug

The guy who wrote the Motif editor will add some code to strip off these 
extra bits, and we will put it in a future kit ( when he gets back
from vacation|).

Cheers Simon....
13.6OPG::SIMONFri Sep 04 1992 15:2413

Leon,

	en_US

The case is important.

My motif sceen does not show the underscore..

This should read: en(underscore)US

Cheers Simon....
13.7FXODEV::ROBERGEFri Sep 04 1992 15:388
    Yes that was it.  When I went into my xdefaults.  the customize had put
    this in there..
    
    en.us88195   or some number like that..  I changed that manually
    and I have the editor up.  Now we will see...
    
    thanks
    Leon
13.8FXODEV::ROBERGEFri Sep 04 1992 16:048
    
    Well now that I have the editor up.  I cannot select anything other
    than 300 baud.  Is this the a limitation?  All my systems on VCS are
    currently at 9600 baud.  I really do not want to change my decservers
    and such to be 300 baud.  Should I be able to change this?
    
    thanks

Leon,

I thought this was the case until I spoke to Simon.

The Baud rate field when you select LAT is meaningless. The connection will take
the speed of the terminal port setting.

13.10FXODEV::ROBERGEFri Sep 04 1992 16:145
    Thanks I thought that would be it.  It in the /etc/ttys file hardcoded
    I did not think the code overrode this...
