This is due to the UIDPATH environment variable not being set correctly.


Solution 1:

Be sure the UIDPATH env variable is set as follows:

setenv UIDPATH <path_to_DS371>/bin/<platform>/%U

where <path_to_DS371> is the directory where XABEL is installed
and <platform> is sparc or hppa.

The %U is required to be at the end of the path as shown.
