[fa.info-vax] Installation Problem with Vax C

GC0H@CMU-CC-TE.ARPA (Greg Christy) (10/18/85)

When I was installing v2.1 of the C compiler yesterday, the IVP failed saying
that "sys$system:.exe" couldn't be executed.  I then traced the problem down to
the .cld file in the kit.  If I changed the image declaration from: image vaxc
to: image vaxc.exe, replaced the file in the kit, and reran vmsinstal, it
then passes the IVP with flying colors.

Has anyone else had this problem?  Is there something messed up with our dcl,
or is it the kit?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

This may help:

When we installed VAX-11 C, th installation procedure didn't /REPLACE the
installed image as documented in the accompanying installation guide.
As a result, there was a version mismatch.

But, our IVP ran correctly anyway.
