Lucinda,

how come IDE$STARTUP.COM is trying to execute a file on your user disk ?

%DCL-E-OPENIN, error opening NOR$USER:[PERRYL.NEWNETBEANS]HOTSPOT.COM; as input
-RMS-E-FNF, file not found

Are there some logicals defined to point to that non-existing file ? Or are there references to other DCL procedures, which are called by IDE$STARTUP.COM ?

Volker.

[Lucinda_1]

not a clue

[Volker Halle]

Lucinda,

as you terminated the installation, you can't look at the IDE$STARTUP.COM file.

Try extracting that file and have a look at it. Especially look at all lines containing '@'.

$ PROD EXTRACT FILE IDESERVER/SELECT=IDE$STARTUP.COM

[Volker Halle]

Lucinda,

so what does IDE$STARTUP.COM do or what other procedures does it call ?

Volker.

[Lucinda_1]

see answer above your question

[Volker Halle]

Lucinda,

what happens if you manually invoke @SYS$STARTUP:ide$startup.com ? Same error ?

What's in DEVI64$DKA0:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.][IDE$SERVER.COM]IDE$IDESTARTUP.COM

Search all .COMs on your disk for the string 'hotspot'

As an example, you will get this type of error message like this:

$ @hotspot
%DCL-E-OPENIN, error opening USERDISK1:[HALLE]HOTSPOT.COM; as input
-RMS-E-FNF, file not found

Volker.

[Lucinda_1]

no HOTSPOT files on my system at all. However, I was able to
$ define/system ide$jdk_version 150

Then...

$ @sys$startup:ide$shutdown
$ @sys$startup:ide$startup

AND IT IS WORKING, I AM ABLE TO REMOTE CONNECT FROM MY DESKTOP

Hotspot is the Java bytecode engine used on Itanium. My best guess is that the NetBeans installation assumes you are installing from a process where Java is set up and running. It may well use Java for some pre- or post-installation tasks. You probably need to run something like:

@SYS$COMMON:[JAVA$150.COM]JAVA$150_SETUP

before installing NetBeans.
