[Download-List] FW: Remote account

[Shawn Waldie]

I installed in 'demo' originally because we're a new shop here; and me
having very limited dba duties (good thing), I thought I would do the least
amount of damage there if I messed something up.  Now that I know it works,
I thought the easiest way to use it in other accounts is by way of a
pointer. I just wasn't clear on the instructions.  When I type 'PAGE VOC
DOWNLOAD' from the demo account, the result is:

:PAGE VOC DOWNLOAD
C
DOWNLOAD.SOURCE/_DOWNLOAD


Based on that, I created a pointer in /datatel/work/coltest with:

:AE VOC DOWNLOAD
Top of New "DOWNLOAD" in "VOC".
*--: I
001= C
002= /usr/ud60bak/demo/DOWNLOAD.SOURCE/_DOWNLOAD
*--: FI

But when I try it out, I get the following error:

DOWNLOAD version 7.02
In /usr/ud60bak/demo/DOWNLOAD.SOURCE/_DOWNLOAD at line 61 Cannot find
(/usr/ud60/sys/CTLG/d/DOWNLOAD.INIT)


It obviously has something to do with the backup demo account being created.
But, like you said, it's probably going to be easiest to load the whole copy
into each account - especially now.

I saw it the first time, but we just install DOWNLOAD into each account
separately.  It doesn't take up that much space, and we keep separate
development, test, and live accounts for each application.

Do you mean to catalog it globally?  I don't think I'd make VOC pointers
from elsewhere into the 'demo' account, although it should work fine that
way.

Not sure where you're running into trouble with the VOC pointer... Can you
post the one that exists in /usr/ud60/demo, and also the one you tried in
/datatel/work/coltest that didn't work?
