I was going to suggest that you give me the logon so I can take a look. The problem is that I am hosting the McIDAS workshop starting at 8 am this morning. You could send my private email address (address@hidden) the passwords for both the 'ldm' and 'mcidas' accounts without mentioning the machine name and the machine name is in an email to support. I would then logon when I get a chance (probably not until this weekend) and take a look. Tom >From address@hidden Thu Nov 6 10:51:17 2003 Hi Tom, I went over the folders to check if we have all the files installed correctly after i do the ./mcinstall. This is what i found. Please let me know if the directory structure is alright. s400.wood.wmich.edu:/cutrim1/mcidas> ls -l total 133476 drwx--l--- 2 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 admin drwx--l--- 2 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 bin drwx--l--- 3 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 data drwx--l--- 2 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 help drwx--l--- 2 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 inc drwx--l--- 3 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 lib drwx--l--- 3 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 man drwx--l--- 3 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 mcidas drwx--l--- 13 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 mcidas2003 -rwx------ 1 mcidas ldm 698 Nov 6 10:54 mcidas_env.csh -rwx------ 1 mcidas ldm 68242254 Nov 2 19:53 mcidasx2003.tar.Z -rwx------ 1 mcidas ldm 25445 Nov 2 19:53 mcinet2003.sh -rwx------ 1 mcidas ldm 3685 Nov 2 19:53 mcinstall drwx--l--- 2 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 savedata drwx--l--- 2 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 tcl drwx--l--- 2 mcidas ldm 512 Nov 6 12:05 workdata s400.wood.wmich.edu:/cutrim1/mcidas> Now I expanded the tcl folder. s400.wood.wmich.edu:/cutrim1/mcidas> cd tcl s400.wood.wmich.edu:/cutrim1/mcidas/tcl> ls s400.wood.wmich.edu:/cutrim1/mcidas/tcl> But this does not have any files. There should be folders like lib , bin etc.. created in this. Is it not? This is the problem i think with the installation process. It is not able to find the file tclconfig. Why is this file alone not getting expanded when i zcat my tar file? Any suggestions? Karthik.
