Jeanie -
Despite what everyone thinks I am not the "Shell answer man" when it comes to
Netview. There are large areas of the product I don't work on. All I can do on
this forum is make some suggestions. If you cannot get anywhere with them then
you will have to open a problem with Support so that someone more knowledgeable
than I am can help you.
man pages are language dependent, so you should check your LANG variable and
make sure it is set to LANG=C or LANG=En_US.
I suspect your variable duplication is due to the fact that you have set your
.kshrc to source the Tivoli environment
( . /etc/Tivoli/setup_env.sh) every time you start a new shell. So these
variables get duplicated. To avoid that you would either have to not start a
new shell from an old one, or first reset them to their pre-Tivoli values in the
.kshrc before sourcing the environment. But I don't think this is the cause of
your problem.
It sounds rather like those variables are not being instantiated any more, as if
your locale or LANG variable had been reset.
Why that should be, I don't know. You could try setting LANG=C or LANG=En_US
and see if that helps.
I am also not aware of why they would get altered by nvauth, but then again
this is not an area I work on. You could just log
out of AIX and back in and see if that helps too.
Good luck

Hi James,
Yes, I'm on AIX, using English.
Result of "echo $MANPATH" is :
/usr/local/Tivoli/man/aix4-r1:/usr/local/Tivoli/man/aix4-r1:/usr/local/Tivoli/man/aix4-r1:/usr/local/Tivoli/man/aix4-r1:/usr/share/man:/usr/man
Result of "echo $NLSPATH" is :
/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%L/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%l/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/C/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%L/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%l/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/C/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%L/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%l/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/C/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%L/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%l/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/C/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%L/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%l/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/C/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%L/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%l/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/C/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%L/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/%l/%N.cat:/usr/local/Tivoli/msg_cat/C/%N.cat:/usr/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N:/usr/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N.cat:/usr/lib/nls/msg/En_US/%N
Netview hung once & I exit out of windows to single user mode. When I started
"xinit" again & tried to start-up Netview, I couldn't login as "admin" in
"nvauth"
window, probably due to not logging out properly the first time round. Even
being
able to login with "nvauth" after rebooting the server many times, I can never
do
"man" for any of the Netview commands anymore.
I'm really at a loss now as I've no idea how to solve this problem. I also
don't
understand why there're so many same variable repetitions in the NLSPATH &
MANPATH.
Thanks & regards,
Jeanie
