- Hello, I hope someone can help.
-
- I have just built elm2.3pl11 on a sysV machine.
- It seems to work OK, but if I just run it and leave elm sitting at its
- prompt, after about a minute I get the message 'Alarm call', and elm
- exits, leaving a temporary file around (/tmp/mbox.cm). Invoking elm again
- gives an error msg saying that another invocation of elm is running.
-
- Any ideas ?
-
- Apologies if this is a faq.
