-
- That's one possibility. Another possibility is that there are two
- versions of DCLTABLES.EXE in SYS$SHARE, with the older version of
- the file installed. (Even if the old copy was deleted, if the new
- copy wasn't installed it won't be visible to the system).
-
- To install the latest version, execute the commands:
-
- $ install :== $sys$system:install/command
- $ install replace sys$share:dcltables.exe
-
- This requires the CMKRNL privilege. It's also implicitly done by a
- system reboot, so that may also clear up the problem.
-
- Good luck,
