708.0. "CONSOLE DIALOG gives SYSTEM-W-WRITLCK on T1.6" by BACHUS::WILLEMSG (Geert Willems MCS-Belgium) Tue May 02 1995 16:48

    
    
    	Hi,
    
    	PCM T1.6, OpenVMS VAX V6.1 .
    
    	CONSOLE DIALOG gives %SYSTEM-W-WRITLCK, write lock error, but
    	everything in the dialogfile is executed(-->seen with CONSOLE
    	MONITOR). Is there a way to troubleshoot this in depth ?
    
    $ console dialog/file=dial.test brssws

    Dialog facility version T1.6-000

    $ type dial.test

    SEND "user/NOCOMMAND"
    RATE 5
    WAIT 15 "Password:"
    SEND "password"
    RATE 5
    
    
    	If I try it on PCM V1.5a, it works fine
    
    	Any help/feedback is welcome.
    	
    	Thanks in advance.
    
    	Rgds,

Geert,

  Yup, this a known "side-effect" of the way I have implemented return
  status values for the dialog procedures, I hope to be able to do
  something about this by the time we ship the product.

Cheers,
Phil

Geert,

  Just an update, this proved easier to fix than I imagined and so
  will be included in the release on Friday.

Cheers,
Phil
