I received a PAW 3 CD from CA in the States. When I have installed
PAW 3 from this CD it identifies itself as PAW V3.0-1118-786 and
appears to install fine.
However it never creates a PAW Mail Monitor service. It does create
the other 4 services just fine. There are no errors in the PAW
installation log. I've had exactly the same "error" on 3 different
systems - 2 Alphas and 1 Intel. In all cases it was NT 4 SP1 and
SMS 1.2 but no SP1
Anyone else seen this? Without the PAW Mail Monitor running I assume
there will be no metering.

There was a problem with the PAW mail monitor in the 3.0 not released
by us... maybe they have just disabled/removed it?
(At least the Proxy Domain Server had problems when the mail monitor
was running).

Hi Tony,
Yes, I got the CD, and with problems I noted in a previous note, I also
saw that the System Mail service was not present after installs. Please
see the release notes, they say that for performance reasons that this
service is now not auto-installed... contact Digital or C.A. for it if
required.
I have a number of calls open with C.A., one of which is to definately
clarify that if I want metering, then I need the System Mail service,
and hence if so, give it to me.... I am still awaiting a response. I
will try to catch them today and reply back to you.
I also have a call logged with them over installing SMS 1.2 sp1 and
doing a PAW ReRegister on Alpha platforms.... causes problems.... and
need to do a PAW Upgrade after. Might be best not doing the PAW
ReRegister step...
A collegue of mine has also logged a call with C.A. because Digital
UNIX PATHWORKS Servers don't work with SMS/PAW. 1) SMS does not detect
a correct network type for the logon server, workaround = we have to
force a change in Domain.ini on the PATHWORKS server to set the network
type = 4 and stop SMS changing it. 2) For package distribution, when SMS
creates a new directory for a package on the PATHWORKS Server it fails
setting permissions on that directory and dies. We have no
workaround/fix as yet.
Regards,
Richard

| 951.3 | System Mail now a thread of Service Controller | ESSB::RJOYCE | Mon Mar 03 1997 10:32 | 9 | |
Hi,
Been off-site for a while. The word back from C.A. is that the system
mail component is there all the time.... It is now a tread of the
PAW Service Controller. The Release Notes are a bit off...
Have fun,
Richard

that means PAW metering _will_ work :-) The hardcopy docs need
updating as they still say the "old" PAW Mail Monitor service
should be around.
Thanks for the update.
Tony.

>> that means PAW metering _will_ work :-) The hardcopy docs need >> updating as they still say the "old" PAW Mail Monitor service This should be escalated to the nearest CSC so it can get back to CA. That's the formal escalation channel for these things. Jim | |||||
