Hi all,
        I have been trying to debug some programs using dbx and I get
the following error messages and I'm not able to debug the
programs. The programs are compiled with the '-g' flag enabled
for debugging and are *not* stripped too. The program is called
'climain'. I'm not even able to truss the program. Even the
ladebug debugger also has not been of any help.


# ldd -d /usr/amass/bin/climain

        Main => /usr/amass/bin/climain
        libfilsys.so => /usr/shlib/libfilsys.so
        libc.so => /usr/shlib/libc.so
        liblsm.so => /usr/shlib/liblsm.so
        libcfg.so => /usr/shlib/libcfg.so

# file /usr/amass/bin/climain
/usr/amass/bin/climain: COFF format alpha dynamically linked,
demand paged setuid executable or object module not stripped -
version 3.13-14

# dbx /usr/amass/bin/climain
dbx version 5.1
Type 'help' for help.

Error on setting fork sysentry
: Not a typewriter

cannot run program
Exiting due to error during startup

# truss /usr/amass/bin/climain
truss: cannot trace set-id or unreadable object file:
/usr/amass/bin/climain
#


What could be the problem ?

Thanks in advance for any help !!
