Hello, I'm trying to install OpenDX on my Win NT machine, and was hoping someone could point out what I've missed in the installation instructions.
I downloaded the OpenDX binaries (v. 4.0.6) and installed Cygwin B20.1 (user version) I'm using Exceed (v.5.1.3.0) as my X-windows client. I had to install it in d: drive, but mounted it according to the instructions (which seems ok). I can start the program via opendx.bat (with the pathnames updated) or via sh dx, and after about 3 minutes (literally), I get the welcome window and the menu window (that starts with Import Data...; Run Visual Programs..) I can open the tutorial and flip through the text, but if I try to view a sample or edit a visual program (eg. selecting example1.net), I get an error window with "unable to connect to dxexec" after another ~3 minutes. At the same time, my DOS window displays: timeout waiting for response from DX Are these long wait times normal (PII, 128MB machine) ? Any suggestions on why I can't get past this point? Thanks in advance! Bruce Nairn Environmental Engineer King County DNR
