Symptoms

An error occurred when trying to Oracle 11.2.0.4 on Open VMS.  

However, it is failing because a modification that has been made to the lnocic routine (Oracle 10g2 client links fine). It is blanking out the value of p2 before calling the loutl routine.

The software is making a number of calls similar to the following:

$ @ora_root:['bin']lnocic.com gem_run:gem -
gem_lib:gem_prog/library/include=gem,-
gem_lib:gem_ora/library/include=gem_ora_main,-
gem_lib:gem_IA64/options/dsf=gem_run:gem

The following line in lnocic appears to be the problem:

$ p2 = f$parse(p2,,,"DEVICE","SYNTAX_ONLY") + f$parse(p2,,,"DIRECTORY","SYNTAX_ONLY") + f$parse(p2,,,"NAME","SYNTAX_ONLY")
To me it looks like it is assuming only one file will be in p2 whereas in reality I have a comma-separated list.

%ILINK-F-OPENIN, error opening GEM_ROOT:GEM.OBJ; as input, -RMS-E-FNF, file not found
