Let's rule that out before we conclude that OS version or ECO level have something to do with it (though they certainly could). The documentation CD is mountable as ISO 9660 or Files-11. So, with bleadperl, I do this: $ mount/over=id/media=cdrom dka400 %MOUNT-I-WRITELOCK, volume is write locked %MOUNT-I-CDROM_ISO, VMSDOC073:DISC_1_OF_1 (1 of 1) , mounted on _BRIANA$DKA400: $ perl -e "print opendir (DH, 'DKA400:[000000]') ? 'Success' : 'Failure: ', $!;" and the process silently dies. The accounting utility shows that its final status was 0x1c, i.e., access violation. And if I try the same thing while mounted Files-11 . . . Ok, it has the same problem. So, my theory is wrong and I refuse to come up with another one until after dinner. This was on OVMS Alpha 7.3 with most ECOs, including the new C RTL, but I'm not quite as up-to-date as Larry: DEC AXPVMS VMS73_ACRTL V2.0 Patch Install 23-MAR-2002 16:00:57 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_FIBRE_SCSI V2.0 Patch Install 17-MAR-2002 22:39:17 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_DW_MOT_MUP V1.0 Patch Install 24-FEB-2002 14:10:10 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_LIBRTL V2.0 Patch Install 24-FEB-2002 14:10:10 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_RMS V2.0 Patch Install 24-FEB-2002 14:10:10 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_SYS V3.0 Patch Install 24-FEB-2002 14:10:10 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_DW_MOT_MUP V1.0 Patch Install 10-FEB-2002 16:18:42 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_CLUSTER V2.0 Patch Install 28-JAN-2002 17:25:05 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_DCL V1.0 Patch Install 28-JAN-2002 17:25:05 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_SHADOWING V2.0 Patch Install 28-JAN-2002 17:25:05 DEC AXPVMS VMS73_UPDATE V1.0 Patch Install 28-JAN-2002 17:15:54 >-----Original Message----- >From: Tom Edelson [<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Monday, April 29, 2002 2:50 PM >To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' >Subject: opendir doesn't seem to work on CD drives > > >APHV2$DKA400 is a CD-ROM drive on which I have mounted a disk using the MOUNT >/MEDIA=CDROM command. > >The command > > $ perl -e "print opendir (DH, 'APHV2$DKA400:[SAS]') ?
