[comp.sys.isis] Meta problem

rfinch@caldwr.water.ca.gov (Ralph Finch) (10/18/90)

Sun 4's, SunOS 4.1, Isis 2.1, Meta 1.3.

Meta compiles fine and table and machine seem to run ok.  When I try
the other initialization steps (Section 7) things go awry.  The
loadsdf and loadcif scripts hang in the first tutil command, although
they seem to run the tutil command ok (I think tutil ends up in the
isis_accept_events_loop and never exits).

So, I run all 3 tutil commands by hand (tutil destroy, load_attr,
load_tuples) for both sdf and cif tables.  Sometimes I can then run
tutil commands interactively ok; other times not (e.g. tutil info
sdf).  When I try the example program in Appendix C it blows up or
hangs.

I think I must be doing some obvious thing wrong but just can't see
it.  Could somebody show me what the problem is?
