Re: [Axiom-developer] sman: fails to start

[Balbir Thomas]

Hi,
I am listing the output of running sman with -debug
and axiom below. "axiom" dies on startup too.

***OUTPUT of "sman -debug" (I am not sure if this is what you wanted):

sman:main entered

***OUTPUT of "axiom" :

***However AXIOMsys works fine :

address@hidden:~/archive/axiom$ which AXIOMsys
/home/bt/archive/axiom/mnt/linux/bin/AXIOMsys
address@hidden:~/archive/axiom$AXIOMsys

***The axiom variable is set properly as shown below :

address@hidden:~/archive/axiom$ which axiom
/home/bt/archive/axiom/mnt/linux/bin/axiom
address@hidden:~/archive/axiom$ which sman
/home/bt/archive/axiom/mnt/linux/bin/sman
address@hidden:~/archive/axiom$

There is no nagman in the path though. Was it supposed 
to be built too ? It may be pertinent to note I am running
these programs without "make install". Is this necessary ?
Or is it enough to set AXIOM and PATH ?

sincerely
B Thomas
