Re: SAM does not open

I am assuming you are running a terminal and not Xwindows. Unset the DISPLAY variable and try again:

unset DISPLAY
sam

Back to the DISPLAY var, check it! Maybe it opens somewhere else?

# echo $DISPLAY

Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Shalom,

There are periodic fixes for sam in the http://itrc.hp.com patch database that may need to be applied for HP-UX 10.20
