Hello,
I have an OVMS 7.3-1 system with "Compaq C++ V6.5-041 for OpenVMS Alpha V7.3-1" compiler. I have downloaded the Perl-5.8.6 sources from the web and was trying to compile the sources on my OVMS system. I am getting following error for @ Configure "-des" command,
Nope, we can't.
Creating config.sh...
%LINK-F-OPENIN, error opening
SYS$SYSDEVICE:[HOME.LTT.perl_an.PERL-5_8_6.UU]munchconfig.obj; as input
-RMS-E-FNF, file not found
Adding VMS specific preprocessor commands.
Doing variable substitutions on .SH files...
Extracting config.h (with variable substitutions)
%DCL-W-ACTIMAGE, error activating image []munchconfig
-CLI-E-IMAGEFNF, image file not found ALPCSI$DKC200:[HOME.LTT.PERL_AN.PERL-5_8_6.UU]MUNCHCONFIG.EXE;
Could some one let me know the reason for above error? How can I resolve this issue?
For yet unknown reasons, the file munchconfig.obj; was not found.
By the error message, it appears that you are trying to build on an ODS-5 disk. Check to make sure that you are not using case sensitive parse style for the process.
If you have been following previous discussions, you will also know that to build on an ODS-5 disk, you will need MMK instead of MMS until MMS is updated to handle ODS-5.
Otherwise, finding out why may require temporarily modifying the CONFIGURE.COM file to be verbose at the step where it compiles the source for munchconfig.obj.
For some reason there is no diagnostic about the compilation of that source failing in your message, which is where the real error is, and apparently the configure.com did not detect that it had a fatal error and tried to continue.
