1154.0. "Watch is broken in V1.6-125" by 45769::WILLS_A (Andrew Wills) Mon Jan 15 1996 11:21

    
    
    Hello,
    
    	  I pulled across the OSF_125_tar.Z patches that cure the problems
    with non printable ascii characters in messages causing the event
    windows to not print messages, but now find that I cannot use the watch
    facility.
    I have tried setting the watch facility up from the command line using
    the command:
    console -w -o /dev/tty03 ALL
    the response is:
    Please Wait:
    PolyCentre console Manager
    Watch facility version V1.6-125
    Copyright (etc)
    #no device for watch operation specified
    
    and with the C3 interface, I get a message in the dxconsole stating
    that my printer device is not in the current config database!. It seems
    to think my printer port is a system!.
    
    When I revert to version 1.6 eco 1, I get the watch facility back
    again, but lose the event window messages when they are preceded by
    non-printing ascii characters.
    f
    Any suggestions?
    
    Regards,
    
    Andrew

    Further to my note .0, I have also found that the ENS connection is now
    very unreliable. If I stop PCM from the -C3 interface 'shutdown PCM'
    command, and then restart it, the ENS refuses to reconnect. The only
    way to recover from this state is to reboot the system that is running
    PCM!.
