2349.0. "DNS$SHARE & DNS$RTL not found in v3.0 installation" by HTSC19::SIMONLAU () Wed Mar 03 1993 03:36

    Hi,
    
    A customer upgraded the ALL-IN-1 to V3.0 and failed during installation
    with message saying that the images DNS$SHARE and DNS$RTL could not be
    found in SYS$SHARE directory. After searching the whole disk, non of them
    could be found. According to customer, no accidental deletion of those
    2 image files colud be traced. Their VMS had been upgraded from 5.2 to
    5.4 (current version) a long time ago, and after that, DNS v1.1 had been 
    installed and everything O.K. up to present.    
    
    
    Anybody could tell me if there's any possible reason to lose those 2 
    images ? And at the present moment, how to re-installed them ?
    
    
    (cross posted in DNS conference)
    
    Thanks
    Simon

2349.1THey should be there!IOSG::STANDAGEOink...Oink...MoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooWed Mar 03 1993 09:0915
    
    Simon,
    
    Both DNS$SHARE and DNS$RTL are shipped as part of VMS, so you don't
    actually need DNS to be specifically installed (unless you're going
    to use the Filecabinet Server with distribution turned on - which
    I would imagine is pretty unlikely!).
    
    I don't know when these images started shipping with VMS though, nor
    can I imagine how they would not exist on your system.
      
    
    Kevin.
2349.4same message after the files loaded in SYS$SHARE?HTSC19::SIMONLAUTue Apr 06 1993 08:1621
    Thanks for your inputs.
    
    The customer has just copy the files DNS$SHARE and DNS$RTL into 
    SYS$SHARE directory from the VMS kit, and he retried the upgrade 
    installation, but he got failed again with message saying that the
    files DNS$SHARE and DNS$RTL not found in SYS$SHARE directory !!
    
    Customer had checked several times that those 2 files did exixt in
    SYS$SHARE, and also verified the logical SYS$SHARE !
    
    Is there any suggestion that I can check to fix this strange problem ?
    
    
    Urgent help needed !!
    
    
    Thanks a lot !!
    
    Regards

2349.5In IMAGELIB? INSTALLed?IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeTue Apr 06 1993 09:0825
    If the files are definitely there:
    
    	$DIR/SIZ SYS$SHARE:DNS$*
    
    	Directory SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]
    
    	DNS$RTL.EXE;2               34
    	DNS$SHARE.EXE;2             65
    
    The next most likely thing is that they aren't in IMAGELIB.OLB:
    
    	$ LIB/LIST/ONLY=DNS* SYS$SHARE:IMAGELIB.OLB
    
    	Directory of SHAREABLE IMAGE SYMBOL TABLE library
    	SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]IMAGELIB.OLB;1 on  6-APR-1993 09:04:05
    	Creation date:  16-SEP-1984 05:14:44      Creator:  VAX-11 Librarian V04-00
    	Revision date:  13-MAR-1993 12:08:35      Library format:   3.0
    	Number of modules:     73                 Max. key length:  39
    
    	DNS$RTL
    	DNS$SHARE
    
    And hence they won't be linkable. Also, they need to be $INSTALLed.
