Re: Problems with DEC WINDOWS
Roger,
If you are going to be installing Oracle with your display set to the Graphics console of your DS20E, need to ensure of these things in order for it all to work correctly:
1) You need to actually be actively logged into a DECwindows session via that console. The reason is, if left sitting at the Login box, the security on the login box is set so that no one, no matter who you are, can display to the screen. You will get the "refused by server" error.
2) You need to ensure that the Decwindows display server is setup to support TCPIP as a transport.
$ show log/table=decw* *trans*
(DECW$SERVER0_TABLE)
"DECW$SERVER_TRANSPORTS" = "LOCAL"
= "TCPIP"
I saw your earlier posts that indicate you already have TCPIP setup as one of your transports.
3) The next thing is that you need to ensure that your display security is opened to allow the user you are logged in as to have access to the display.
To do this, you need to bring up Style Manager->Security->Configure->USERS
The configure Users box, will have a list of already authorized users, with a delete button. To the right of that, there are 3 text entry fields...
In each of the fields, type in a Asterisk "*" (without the quotes)... for Transport Erase the default value of "DECNET" and put in an astrisk there as well, then 'click' the "Add Button".
This will add a entry in the list box that looks like 3 astrisks, with a space between each one on a line all by itself.
You can then "click" the OK button, on both windows and close out the Style Manager.
Now, you can try to run ICO.
Start a Decterm from the Session Manager Bar.
Then in the Decterm, issue a "Show display" command to make sure you have your display set.
If you do not have a display set, you can try using each of these commands:
$ set display/create/node=ip.address.of this.system./transport=tcpip
-or-
(if the oracle installer is on this very same system that you are displaying the installer GUI to)
$ set display/create/node=0/trans=local
Then
$ mcr decw$examples:ico
If ICO runs, then stop it using CTRL+C within the DECTERM window. Then start your Oracle installation software.
You will NOT need to re-issue the "$ set display" commmand in-between commands, unless you login to another system via "telnet" or "set host".
Basically, the error you were getting from DECW$CLOCK indicates that your X server was accepting the connection, but the X server was not given permission to allow you to display it. It requires, a name, a host that you are coming from and a transport.
By using the Astrisks (*), we are wild-carding the fields allowing full access to the display server.
When you are finished with your installation, you may want to re-visit the Security settings, and change them so that only certain systems, or certain users have access to display to your OpenVMS X Server.
