So I'm trying to set up andrew bboards using the methods recently discussed here, and am having problems. It seems that the .AMS.flames file is not getting loaded when CUI starts up - I get the messages ELI-PRIMITIVE [READ (error opening file)] INTERNAL [eliEvalList (functionless symbol at list car)] The .AMS.flames file is owned by the user running CUI, and has the protections -rw-r--r--. I get these same messages even if everything in the file is commented out. When I crank up debugging and execute the "check" command, there is nothing that indicates that it tried to load .AMS.flames again - it should, right? Despite the return address, I am not doing this at CMU - I'm doing it on a Sun 3/280 with SunOS 3.5 and the version of Andrew from the X11R3 tape. Any ideas? -- Jamie --
