Still trying to work out why I can't create a map snapshot. nettl.LOG00
contains the following error:
ERROR: Unable to create directory
/usr/OV/databases/openview/mapdb/ODS_Customised_Display/130901.7/8/98M:
errno = 2
The timestamp is not of the form "ddmmyyyy.hhmms". Any ideas why ovw is
trying to use this irregular form?
