FACT(s) (Environment):
IBM AIX 4.3.3
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
SYMPTOM(s):
Database fails to start.
cat: cannot open /tmp/.oslevel.mlinfo
/usr/bin/oslevel[190]: /tmp/sh15918.13: 0403-005 Cannot create the specified file.
CHANGE:
Applied applied ML 10 to the AIX 4.3.3 system.
CAUSE:
The _mprshut command executes an Operating System "/usr/bin/oslevel" script. The script oslevel sets the environment variables instlib and mlcache. These environment variables set the location of specific files. The location of the files have changed after applying ML 10 on AIX 4.3.3.
Prior to AIX 4.3.3.10, the oslevel command looked for .oslevel.mlinfo files in /tmp directory. In 4.3.3.10, the files are placed in /usr/lib/instl and are called .oslevel.mlinfo.cache.
FIX:
1. Modify the instlib and mlcache environment variables in the /usr/bin/oslevel script.
2. Change the environment variable in the /usr/bin/oslevel script to:
instlib="/usr/lib/instl"
mlcache="$instlib/.oslevel.mlinfo.cache"
3. Save the oslevel file.
