The file "make.out" contained the following: make[3]: Entering directory `/home/ldmnldn/ldm-6.9.7/src/regutil' test -z "/home/ldmnldn/ldm-6.9.7/bin" || .././install-sh -c -d "/home/ldmnldn/ldm-6.9.7/bin" /bin/bash ../libtool --mode=install .././install-sh -c regutil '/home/ldmnldn/ldm-6.9.7/bin' .././install-sh -c .libs/regutil /home/ldmnldn/ldm-6.9.7/bin/regutil sed -e 's;@''LDMHOME@;/home/ldmnldn;g' \ -e 's;@''LOGS_DIR@;/home/ldmnldn/var/logs;g' \ -e 's;@''QUEUE_DIR@;/home/ldmnldn/var/queues;g' \ -e 's;@''DATA_DIR@;/home/ldmnldn;g' \ -e 's;@''HOSTNAME@;striker2;g' \ -e 's;@''NTPDATE@;/usr/sbin/ntpdate;g' \ -e 's;@''LOG_FILE@;/home/ldmnldn/var/logs/ldmd.log;g' \ -e 's;@''METRICS_FILE@;/home/ldmnldn/var/logs/metrics.txt;g' \ -e 's;@''NETSTAT@;/usr/bin/netstat -f inet -P tcp -n;g' \ -e 's;@''TOP@;/apps/sparc/bin/top -b -n 1;g' \ -e 's;@''ETC_DIR@;/home/ldmnldn/etc;g' \ ./regpar.tab.in >regpar.tab.tmp mv regpar.tab.tmp regpar.tab /usr/bin/perl ./installRegistry regpar.tab ./regutil \ /home/ldmnldn/etc/ldmadmin-pl.conf /home/ldmnldn/etc Couldn't ensure that registry exists in directory "/home/ldmnldn/etc" at ./installRegistry line 33. Odd. That should have worked. Would you please drop into the directory "/home/ldmnldn/ldm-6.9.7/src/regutil" and send me the output from the command ./regutil -d /home/ldmnldn/etc -c which is what caused the problem in the Perl script. > Thanks for checking . . . > > --Kevin Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: WSU-931209 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
