- Hello.
-
- I have problems with lemacs 19.4 on hpux 9.01. It compiles ok
- and dumps but when I run it, in the src-directory, I got
- Fatal error... This is a dump from xdb

- I have got it to crash, with segmentation fault, in different places
- in lread.c under different "compilations".
-
- When I run it installed I got this "error"
- kobra> cd /local/gnu/bin/lemacs-19.4/
- kobra> ./emacs
-
- WARNING:
- couldn't find an obvious default for variable lock-directory, and
- there were no defaults specified in paths.h when emacs was built.
- Perhaps some directories don't exist, or the emacs executable,
- /mount/c201d2s0/hppa/local/gnu/bin/lemacs-19.4/emacs is in a strange
- place?
-
- Without lock-directory set, file locking won't work. Consider
- creating /usr/local/gnu/lib/lemacs-19.4/lock as a directory or
- symbolic link for use as the lock directory. (This directory must be
- globally writable.)
- Fatal error (11).Segmentation fault (core dumped)
- kobra>
-
- It complains about missing lock directory BUT I have set PATH_LOCK
- in paths.h as you can see...
-
- kobra> cat paths.h
- /* The default search path for Lisp function "load".
- This sets load-path. */
- #define PATH_LOADSEARCH "/usr/local/gnu/lib/lemacs-19.4/lisp"
-
- /* the extra search path for programs to invoke.
- This is appended to whatever the PATH environment variable says
- to set the Lisp variable exec-path and the first file namein it
- sets the Lisp variable exec-directory. */
- #define PATH_EXEC "/usr/local/gnu/lib/lemacs-19.4/etc"
-
- /* the name of the directory that contains lock files
- with which we record what files are being modified in Emacs.
- This directory should be writable by everyone.
- THE STRING MUST END WITH A SLASH!!! */
- #define PATH_LOCK "/usr/local/gnu/lib/lemacs-19.4/lock/"
-
- /* the name of the file !!!SuperLock!!! in the directory
- specified by PATH_LOCK. Yes, this is redundant. */
- #define PATH_SUPERLOCK "/usr/local/gnu/lib/lemacs-19.4/lock/!!!SuperLock!!!"
- kobra>
-
- and if you look in /usr/local/gnu/lib/lemacs-19.4 there is a
- directory lock with mod 777.
