ECP 5.4D error PROPAS-W-NOMSG

[Steve Reece_3]

I've just done an installation of ECP 5.4D on an AlphaServer DS15 running 7.3-1 of VMS. Nothing strange there. Done the same thing lots of times before.

On this one though, the ECP$STARTUP.COM throws an error when it's loading the driver:

$ MC SYSMAN IO LOAD sys$loadable_images:ecp$driver.EXE
$ MC SYSMAN IO CONNECT CPA0: /DRIVER=ecp$driver/NOADAPTER/LOG=(ALL)
%SYSMAN-I-NODERR, error returned from node ALPHA
-PROPAS-W-NOMSG, Message number 81426028
$ ASSIGN/SYSTEM CPA0: ecp$cpdriver
$ exit

What the heck is PROPAS and why is the SYSMAN IO CONNECT command throwing that error?

Thanks in advance

Steve

Steve,

81426028 does not look like a valid message number, but more like a S0 space address. There is some programming error (probably in ECP$DRIVER). Just ignore this warning, I'm seeing it on all sites using ECP.
