Dear Managers,
We're running v4.0Dp4 on DEC 3000's. On some of our machines,
the CDE file manager starts but then aborts with a complaint that the
user's home directory is "invalid". On other machines, File Manager
has no problem. The same user will have File Manager succeed on one
machine and fail on another. App Manager is also exhibiting this
behavior.
In the archives, this question was posed in 1997, but no summary
seems to have been posted.
We've looked at the /etc/dt, /usr/var/dt, /var/dt/tmp, and
/var/dt/appconfig directories without seeing anything different apart
from obvious things like hostnames and generated filenames. /var is a
separate AdvFS filesystem on all the machines.
