Assume you're in the sh (Posix shell).

Assume HPBIN.SYS has the right access rights:

How was the account TEMP created ? Standard MPE ?

what is your logon ?

execute a pwd to see where you are in posix' view.

Could you please send the output of a pwd and a ls -als please ?

I'm sure it's a simple problem which cause this.

Best regards, Andreas

I can't seem to use the chmod in Posix.
I tried chmod 755 TEMP.  Got the error chmod: file "TEMP": Invalid argument
I tried chmod 755 /TEMP.  Same error.
I tried chmod a+rwx TEMP.  Same error.
I tried chmod 755 temp.  Got error chmod: file "temp": file not found.

I had previously change the owner of the /TEMP/PUB to MGR.TEMP.

Any ideas why the chmod isn't working.  I tried both as Mgr.Sys and as
MGR.TEMP.  Neither worked.

Thank you, Andreas, for your help.

Eva

        Eva,

        change /TEMP/ to mode 755 !
        Currently NOBODY is allowed to write if Posix shows dr-xr-xr-x.  The
other thing: who is owner of /TEMP/PUB/ ? This can be changed to MGR.TEMP
using chown.
        If the problem will continue don't hesitate to come back.
