Hello:
A customer with VMS VAX 6.2 , Motif 1.2-3, GKS 6.2 has intermitent
problems.
When the problem is manifested the execution of any example of the
GKS$EXAMPLES gets the error %GKS-E-ERROR_26 if executed in a recent or
new process. If the execution is in a procces that is logged in from
a long time, works ok. The customer aplication has the same symptoms.
If he execute the DECW$EXAMPLES:ICO works ok.
After reboot the system the problem goes away and it returns after one
week or more.
The customer has revised the points described in the TIMA article
Troubleshooting GKS Error 23 and 26: Open Workstation Problems and is
all correct.
Any ideas?.
Crist�bal.

| 2730.1 | GKS V6.2 is old now - upgrade to latest (V6.5) | BGSDEV::CROCKER | Ben Crocker, GKS proj. leader, 381-1909 | Tue May 13 1997 16:19 | 23 |
GKS V6.2 is pretty old now (late 1995); the latest version is V6.5 (see note 2535.30). Since V6.2, numerous problems have been fixed, including some that may have some bearing on the problem your customer has observed. I suggest that you install GKS V6.5 and look for the problem again. If it recurs, check some basic things: 1) GKS$WSTYPE and GKS$CONID set to reasonable values; 2) GKS license installed and loaded; 3) if the GKS license is limited in the number of users who can use GKS simultaneously, make sure this limit is not being exceeded. I don't have access at the moment to the TIMA article you refer to, so please excuse any repetition . . . . Regards, Ben Crocker, GKS project leader | |||||
