Dear members,

I tried to run the SCO portingset 6.1c.05 on a Red Hat 8.0 Linux machine. There is an open source project called ABI which makes it possible to download and start several kernel modules that emulate a SCO Unix environment. SCO binaries can now be run.

I copied an existing Baan environment to this Linux server and modified lots of files in $BSE/lib, like described in QG1501 and QG1023, to get it working. Several binaries work fine, but most of them give error messages
such as these (from log.bdbpost6.1):

2003-07-15[15:36:38]:E:bsp: user_type S language 3 user_name bsp tty err locale
ISO88591/NULL
2003-07-15[15:36:38]:E:bsp: Errno 2 (No such file or directory) bdb_errno 0
2003-07-15[15:36:38]:E:bsp: Log_mesg: (ISO_BIN) *** Error in TSSsetlocale:
2003-07-15[15:36:38]:E:bsp: Can't set NLS locale ''

Where should the file/directory "ISO88591/NULL" be located and how should it be filled?

Any suggestions are most welcome!

Ask your Baan sales representative for the linux-portingset. I heared that such a portingset is available. I am *not* talking about the old 6.1c.03 linux portingset. We tested the 6.1c.03 portingset on SuSE 8.0 and it worked fine.

regards

I hope you don't mind me asking, but where did you hear this? Rumour only, or officially? Or are you refering to the Gemini porting set discussed previously on the board?

Ask your Baan sales representative. That´s all I can say.

Hmmm.

reading the documentation of bugfixes for the latest Portingset for ERP50c (7.1d02) you could find something like this :

Thus, again we're only talking about ERP. No new 6.1 porting sets for Linux. :( Pity...
