Library errors when starting Help on 7.2C Motif on HP
This notebook entry describes a known problem with the implementation
of HyperHelp on the HP port of 7.2C for Motif. When you try to access
Help from the ADE tools, PROGRESS might generate an error message
which states shared libraries cannot be found.
PROGRESS looks for the following library:
/usr2/hp827/Motif1.2.2-R5/lib/libXm.sl
Workaround: Follow these steps to "fool" PROGRESS into finding the
actual libraries by creating a symbolic link:
1> Determine where the libXm.sl library exists on the host system.
One possible location is /usr/lib/Motif1.2/libXm.sl. (For
the purpose of this knowledgebase, assume that this is
where the library actually resides.)
2> Create a directory that exactly matches the directory pathname
given in the error message, use the following command ( on one
line.)
mkdir /usr2 /usr2/hp827 /usr2/hp827/Motif1.2.2-R5
/usr2/hp827/Motif1.2.2-R5/lib
3> Change the directory to the new directory just created:
cd /usr2/hp827/Motif1.2.2-R5/lib
4> Create a symbolic link to the actual filename where the library
exists. For example, if the library is in a default location of
/usr/lib/Motif1.2/libXm.sl. (Depending on your host system, the
location might be different.)
ln -s /usr/lib/Motif1.2/libXm.sl .
5> Restart PROGRESS. (A reinstall is NOT necessary.)
