Carter, GEMPAK uses MOTIF. The errors below seem to indicate you do not have openmotif installed. If you do not have Motif (openmotif), you may have linked against lesstif which does not provide complete MOTIF functionality. I build under RedHat/Fedora with the openmotif package installed for testing and have not seen the type of error you refer to below. You can check your Xm.h header file which is typically installed under /usr/X11R6/include/Xm/Xh.h. It should provide the string: XmVERSION_STRING. % grep XmVERSION_STRING Xm.h #define XmVERSION_STRING "@(#)Motif Version 2.2.2" If you are using lesstif, you would see something like: % grep XmVERSION_STRING Xm.h #define XmVERSION_STRING LesstifVERSION_STRING Steve Chiswell Unidata User Support >From: Carter Borst <address@hidden> >Organization: UCAR/Unidata >Keywords: 200407141912.i6EJCWaW018538 >Hello, > > I was wondering if you have seen this type of error before with the >NAWIPS software (nmap2, built from source) before. > > The system is a dual processor PIV (1GB of RAM) running Debian 3.0.2 >(woody). > > Any assistance is greatly appreciated. > >Thank you, > >Carter Borst >303-497-8447 > >4dwx-metbox-epg:4dwx:~> nmap2 >Finished reading tables... >Resource File: /opt/nawips/gempak/resource/Nmap >Warning: XmForm form : attachment to form which is not a child, > reset to NULL > >Warning: XmForm form : attachment to form which is not a child, > reset to NULL > >Warning: XmForm form : attachment to form which is not a child, > reset to NULL > >Warning: XmForm form : attachment to form which is not a child, > reset to NULL > >Warning: XmForm form : attachment to form which is not a child, > reset to NULL > >Warning: XmForm form : attachment to form which is not a child, > reset to NULL > >Warning: XmForm pgfilw_inputForm : attachment to _FileSel_frameW which >is not a child, > reset to NULL > >Warning: XmForm _label_formW : attachment to which is not a child, > replaced with _label_menu > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: XmForm Edit WCL : attachment to svfile_text which is not a child, > replaced with svfile_textSW > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Warning: XmForm tracks_results : attachment to track_rtext which is not >a child, > replaced with scrolled_w > >Warning: > Name: tmbar > Class: XmRowColumn > Attempt to change XmNshadowThickness for a RowColumn widget not of >type XmMENU_PULLDOWN or XmMENU_POPUP ignored > >Segmentation fault (core dumped) > -- NOTE: All email exchanges with Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publically available through the web.
