Hi,
I'm trying to get the (XMDPC) DECWindows session manager to work properly on FreeAXP + OpenVMS 8.4.
While I can start a session on a remote X-server, I cannot move any windows.. This seems to be a known problem, but I haven't found a solution online yet..
Funny thing though, at random times it does seem to work properly for a little while (5s to 1min) right after starting the session, but then stops working.
Anyone have any thoughts on this issue?
Cheers,
Kherim
MY config:
Host:
Windows 7
X-server = Xming :0 -query 192.168.0.150 -clipboard -ac -screen 0 1680x1050@1
Emulator:
FreeAXP
OpenVMS 8.4
I the added this in my SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM
$ IF .NOT. VAX_NODE THEN -
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC DECW$IGNORE_SHARE_ADDRESS TRUE
$!
$! OTHER DECW LOGICALS
$!
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM DECW$INSTALL_TCPIP TRUE
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM DECW$USEXLIBPG4 TRUE
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM DECW$INSTALL_XTERMINAL TRUE
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM DECW$START_FONT_SERVER TRUE
And this in my DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM
$DO_DEFAULT:
$ say "Using default config"
$ decw$xsize_in_pixels == 1680
$ decw$ysize_in_pixels == 1050
$ decw$server_transports == "TCPIP, LOCAL"
$ decw$server_extensions == "Xie,Multi-Buffering,Sec_Xag,LBX"
$ DECW$MONITOR_DENSITY == "75"
$ exit
And this line enabled in DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM
$ decw$start_new_desktop == "false"
Starting the Session Manager gives the following output:

This starts up the old style desktop no problem, except for the moving/minimizing etc windows.
Tracing this %SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO with ANALYSE/SYS leads to the image "DECW$XLIBSHR.EXE", which I tried loading separately, but it gives the same error.<hr>
