Problems load profile or dtprofile

[Griselda Sanchez]

Hi,
I'm having problems with the .dtprofile. It's looks like when I login though exceed using CDE the .dtprofile doesn't load complete and I can't run one application that I'm testing. But when I login through telnet as the same user, the program runs fine.I already comment and uncomment the DTSOURCEPROFILE=true, but it still not work.
Anyone have an idea what could be happening
thanks

At a guess it's likely the terminal CDE session is not executing your .profile which has some settings the application requires to start correctly.

Try this : login via CDE, launch a dtterm and run within it - dtterm -ls &

in the new terminl launch your application, if this works

vi $HOME/.Xresources

add

dtterm*loginShell :True (check man page in case syntax off)

exit out of CDE.

future logins should execute .profile when dtterms are launched from CDE front panel etc.
