      Boy I am getting frustrated. Trying to write a simple tcl socket server program in TCL. Whenever my socket client does a puts and gets, I receive an error from the socket server like this:

      0509-036 Cannot load program /qvdx/qdx5.3/integrator/tcl/bin/tcl because of the following errors:        

      0509-150   Dependent module libtcl8.3.so could not be loaded.

      Obviously, the inetd daemon cannot find all the libraries it needs to exec a tcl program, I have tried many things all to no avail. I believe it can be done because I see examples on the internet.

      Any ideas on how to get this to work?

      On the first line of my socket server program I have:

      #! /qvdx/qdx5.3/integrator/bin/tcl

          Rich,

          Just a guess…Try evaluating the output from hcisetenv at the beginning of your script.

          eval [exec /qvdx/qdx5.3/integrator/sbin/hcisetenv -root tcl /qvdx/qdx5.3/integrator SiteName]

          Double check the syntax…

          Best regards

            Configure inetd to call an executable ksh script instead of your Tcl script.  The ksh script then initializes the environment and calls your Tcl script.

            #!/usr/bin/ksh

            export QUOVADX_INSTALL_DIR=/hci/qdx5.3

            eval `/hci/qdx5.3/integrator/sbin/hcisetenv -root ksh /hci/qdx5.3/integrator prod`

            /hci/qdx5.3/integrator/bin/hcitcl /hci/cswp/src/scooter_server.tcl $*

            Hope that gets it for ya.

              Hi,

              I’ve had problems with the Cloverleaf Tcl install trying to run scripts I’d written using a full Tcl install. Although the bulk of the files/libraries are installed some of the specialist one’s appear to be missing. It could be that the low level TCP/IP library is not installed.

              I haven’t tried this so can’t confirm it but if everything else in your script is correct then this is what the error suggests to me.

              Regards

              Garry
