Hi, I am having problems with xmh on a SUN 4/110 running SunOS 4.0.1. The problem is that when a user wants to reply to a mail message, the program dies stating: No such file or directory RenameAndCheck(/home/kadsma/fuller/Mail/draft->/home/kadsma/fuller/Mail/drafts/4 ) failed! errno = 2 exiting. Can someone give me the patch that fixes this bug for SunOS 4. Thanks, William H. Fuller Senior Systems Consultant

Sounds like something may be wrong at the mh level. Try running repl
from a shell command level and see if it gives any mh diagnostics.
In the next release xmh will display any mh diagnostic messages rather
than hiding them as it currently does.ntitley@cocoa.axion.bt.co.uk (Nigel Titley) (08/04/89)
There is a bug in xmh which causes the `ReplyInsertFilter' function not to work on System V. The bug is in the function `ExecMsgInsertAssoc' which is to be found in module `msg.c'. It is caused by the difference in behaviour in sprintf between BSD and System V. The following diff fixes the problem 772,774d771 < sprintf(command, "%s %s", < app_resources.defInsertFilter, < MsgFileName(scrn->assocmsg)); 777c774,776 < argv[2] = command; --- > argv[2] = (char*)sprintf(command, "%s %s", > app_resources.defInsertFilter, > MsgFileName(scrn->assocmsg)); Email: NTitley@axion.bt.co.uk Snail: British Telecom Research labs, Martlesham Heath, Ipswich, Suffolk, UK "Well, I'm disenchanted too.

> There is a bug in xmh which causes the `ReplyInsertFilter' function not to > work on System V. Correct, and the fix is correct once you realize that the diff was produced with the original and fix files reversed. Fixed here (long ago) for R4. A reminder: please report bugs using the template in doc/bugs/bug-report, sending it to the address in the template, xbugs@expo.lcs.mit.edu. Doing so guarantees our attention; and if the bugs are severe or substantial, we would announce a patch available to the public. The code diffs should show the context of the changes (use -c -b), and the original file should be the first file, the fixed file second. Details of the problem and sample fixes are genuinely appreciated. Thanks, Donna Converse converse@expo.lcs.mit.edu
