Hi, rar reports the following error using the TSM GUI client on Athena 9.1
(add adsm; dsm &) when a backup is attempted:
>rar.mit.edu(8:38am)% X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window
>parameter)
> Major opcode of failed request: 61 (X_ClearArea)
> Resource id in failed request: 0x68001fd
> Serial number of failed request: 97575
> Current serial number in output stream: 97590
The error doesn't happen on initial launch- just after you have selected
some files to back up, then tell it to proceed.
I verified this on a Sun- you may need to be on a machine that has a TSM
account set up in order to test this; is there any chance that this might
be some release issue that could be fixed?
It looks like "login using Dash interface" gets around the problem but
it would be nice if users didn't have to do this. As far as I know the
problem didn't show up in Athena 9.0.
Thanks,
Alex
