I am using ibm-aix ver 4.0.3. Off late i cannot get through my terminal desktop as during booting the following errors are shown.
1> ACTION ''Dtterm" was not found.
2> ACTION "StartDtscreenSwarm" was not found.
3> ACTION "StartDtscreenQix" was not found.

Currently i am accessing through command line.
Urgent help is required to regain the desktop.

Thanks.
 
Mait,

Post up a df -k output from the server, this is usually a space problem - check /var and /tmp and /

Hello,

Did you solve the problem. I have the exact same problem.
Any ideas, space looks good??

Both /usr and /var are full. Try doing some houskeeping on them and see if that works. For /var try clearing some logs, /var/adm/wtmp for example. HTH.
 
Sorry was looking at the wrong colum :p

Cleaned out /var/tmp and /usr. Works fine now..

Cheers,

Rob
