Running C - compiled on pa-risc executables with itanium

[Nafez ALNajjar]

I have compiled a c program on PA-RISC machine,
then copied it to Itanium . and when i run the compiled script i get the error:

"problem! Exiting.Old PID file exists. Unknown"

...Any idea ????

[Pete Randall]

It sounds like the program is testing for the presence of a file and finding it. Have a look at the code because it seems to be functioning normally to me.

HI:

Think about your question. If you compiled the program, you must have the source code and/or have some idea what the code should do. Why not read the source code to see under what condition(s) the (rather non-descriptive) message is reported.

Is 11.31 involved? You can have large PIDs there such that any sprintf buffers have to be made bigger when generating temp files.

If the application is performance sensitive, you will want to recompile for Integrity.

HI..

The error caused because of an internal code issue, that it requires a file not to be existed , and it was not because an O.S issue.

Thanks all ..
