Running OpenVMS 7.3 on a SimH emulated VAX 11/780 (Ubuntu 18.04 linux):

When attempting to expand the HELPLIB.HLB library using the Library Decompression Utility as a SYSTEM user, the following error occurs:

%UPGRADE-I-EXPANDING, decompressing library SYS$COMMON:[SYSHLP]HELPLIB.HLB
%LIBRAR-E-WRITEERR, error writing SYS$COMMON:[SYSHLP]HELPLIB.HLB_TEMP;1
-SYSTEM-F-VASFULL, virtual address space is full
%LIBRAR-E-NOMSG, Message number 008680DA
-SYSTEM-F-VASFULL, virtual address space is full
%UPGRADE-E-EXPANDFAIL, expansion failure on library SYS$COMMON:[SYSHLP]HELPLIB.HLB
%LIBRAR-E-INDEXERR, index error in SYS$COMMON:[SYSHLP]HELPLIB.HLB

Expanding all other libraries works fine.

I am returning to VAX/VMS after 25 years, and it is quite exciting.

Any suggestions to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeff

Hello Jeff , Is this the .HLB file as it was provided by an installed product (ie: Operating System) or later copied back onto th efile systems afterward ?

If afterward it may be that the file structure is not described to the OS , there is a way to change it .
I just don't have the memory for the words to describe the method to correct the issue .

If from an installed product , I'm not one to even suggest a fix .

Hth , JimL

Thanks jiml for your reply. It was part of the installed product.

However, after some research, i was able to determine that increasing the number of global pages solved the problem. The default global page number was too low.

Thanks,

Jeff

No more VAX hobbyist licenses. Community licenses for Alpha/IA64/X86_64 VMS Software Inc. Commercial VMS software licenses for VAX available from HPE.

I recall that the disks failed on the public access VMS systems that included Fafner

Anyone know what happened to FAFNER.DYNDS.ORG? I had a hobbyist account here but can longer access the site.

At one time, didn't this web site have a job board? I would love to use my legacy skills one last time in my career.

Eisner, which is currently being moved, got an SSH update and the keys were updated to more modern encryption standards.
