System name:		beauty
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7K
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
  Start up Framemaker version 4.

What's wrong:

  It took 10 minutes to start up.

More specifically, the initial window came up with a light blue
background, but with no button dividers, and no text.  Just a light blue
background.  It stayed this way for about 10 minutes.

Something timed out after that, and I got this error message in a dialog
box:

  Cannot initialize API client ClickPrint.

  Check for errors in fminit/usenglish/APIArea/apiclients,
  verify that the client programs exist, and make sure
  you have enough swap space to run the clients.

After this, I can use Framemaker just fine; the initial wait is the
problem.

There's no reason that I shouldn't have enough swap space, so I'm not
sure where the problem lies.  I might be the only person having this
problem (nobody else I've asked has seen this), but it happens every
time that I try to start up Frame on the Sun (and only on the Sun).

What should have happened:

  Frame should not take 10 minutes to start up.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
