Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
If you expect help, please provide a qualified problem description.
In this case, the command used and the resulting error message(s) would be nice...

Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
I've done the following:
unzip c_compiler_73.zip get from HP ftp
I got:
Archive: DKA200:[000000]C_COMPILER_73.ZIP;1
inflating: cc073.a
inflating: cc073.b
inflating: cc073_iguide.txt
then
GFI>SET DEFAULT SYS$UPDATE
GFI>@SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL CC073 $dka100:[temp] OPTIONS N
OpenVMS Software Product Installation Procedure V8.4
It is 1-APR-2012 at 00:30.
Enter a question mark (?) at any time for help.
* Are you satisfied with the backup of your system disk [YES]? y
* Where will the distribution volumes be mounted: dka100:[temp]
The following products will be processed:
CC V7.3
Beginning installation of CC V7.3 at 00:33
**********************************************************************
%VMSINSTAL-I-VALSIGN, Performing product kit validation of signed kits ...
%VMSINSTAL-I-NOVALDONE, Product is not signed by HP
* Do you want to install this product [NO]?y
%VMSINSTAL-I-RESTORE, Restoring product save set A ...
%BACKUP-F-NOTSAVESET, DKA100:[temp]CC073.A;1 is not a BACKUP save set
%VMSINSTAL-E-NOSAVESET, Save set A cannot be restored.
VMSINSTAL procedure done at 00:35
GFI>
So the installation do not install anything!
I do not understand since the c_compiler_73.zip is directly coming from HP ftp.
The fortran, form the same source give not problem of installtion, but was not set of save_set but compressed PSI to be installed with product.
What(s wrong???

Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
The record attributes of the product savesets (CC073.%) are most likely incorrect. You can verify this by trying a simple BACKUP/LIS CC073.A/SAVE -> it will also fail with the same %BACKUP-F-NOTSAVESET error message.
You need to correct the record attributes. There is a FIXBCK tool on the OpenVMS Freeware CDs as [000TOOLS]RESET_BACKUP_SAVESET_FILE_ATTRIBUTES.COM.
But you can probably also get away with:
$ SET FILE/ATTR=(RFM:FIX,RECL=32256) CC073.%
In the future, consider to use the HELP/MESSAGE utility to get a more detailled description of the error message. In this case: HELP/MESSAGE NOTSAVESET

Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
THanks a lot,
Your solution with RESET_BACKUP_SAVESET_ATTRIBUTES.COM solve my problem.
Your other solution with your set file did not work since "recl" is not a recognized attribute.
Best regards

Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
Sorry 'bout that.
$ HELP SET FILE/ATTRIBUTE would have shown, that LRL would have been the correct keyword.
OpenVMS has a very detailled HELP system. When you know what you want to do, figuring out the correct command is easy when using HELP.
HELP/MESS IVKEYW would have pointed you to the OpenVMS HELP utility and you could have figured out the correct keyword by yourself. On OpenVMS, HELP is always there to help you ;-)

Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
Unfortunately VMS doesn't have a utility to display the file attributes with the keywords as expected by SET FILE/ATTRIBUTE. A SHOW FILE/ATTRIBUTE or the DIRECTORY command would be the right utility. Unfortunately a DIR/FILE displays the file ID and a DIR/ATTR (yeah, not explained in the HELP) does something else. If there is interest, I can make my simple

Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
In no particular order...
- ftp strips off VMS file system metadata.
- stripped metadata leads to various errors in various tools.
- binary-mode transfers can sometimes help, but BACKUP has issues irrespective of proper ftp file transfer mode selection.
- Storing a VMS file on a Linux, OS X or Windows box during a transfer can (also) corrupt/strip the file system metadata.
When you are moving these files around yourself, zip "-V" can be your friend here. That's a quoted capital V there, and the quotes and the capitalization are required syntax. Zip (and unzip) know how to protect the file system metadata.
The OpenVMS FAQ is here: www.hoffmanlabs.com/vmsfaq This is covered in the FAQ, as well as at other sites around the net.
OpenVMS V8.4 does (twenty years along) have a (sort-of, kind-of, mostly) fix for BACKUP saveset corruptions, with the advent of the BACKUP /REPAIR command. But the DCL command procedure you're using is equivalent, and it works across any recent OpenVMS version.
Google is also your friend with OpenVMS, as cases such as this have twenty years of folks having slammed into this particular ftp issue, bug, error, whatever. These days, most VMS bugs are old bugs. And Google means you get a quicker answer than you would from posting here.

Re: Problem to install C compiler 73
Interestingly enough, I have had similar problems in the past with kits FTPd from HP. I found that making sure that the FTP was in binary mode and that the UNZIP is done on VMS results in correct behavior. UNZIPing on a Windows system even with a binary transfer to a VMS system afterwards will fail more times that not.
