But i did a complete new install of the smartsuite.

before that i tried to delete all the *.ir-files (it needed to alter the lotus entries in the config.sys before). But that didn't help.

Applications / Re: warpin problem
« Last post by andreas on Today at 01:53:46 am »
once i found an entry in os2.ini. I deletd that one.
My trials to reinstall warpin didn't lead to a new entry there.
But regedit2 shows the right entry (same as yours).

I just tried to deinstall warpin via ANPM. the entry in ANPM was deleted. As i tried to reinstall warpin the entry reappleared there, though  - as always -
installation process terminated, since it is assumed there is another instance of warpin runnung....

I seem to recall that the SOM.IR file that sits in \os2\etc, when corrupted, can cause Lotus 1-2-3 all sorts of problems.

My experience certainly can attest to this.

Here is what I have on my machine:

Code: [Select]
Directory of G:\os2\etc

 6-30-99  4:28p       496,503      0 a---  SOM.IR
        1 file(s)     496,503 bytes used
                   44,077,031 K bytes free

EDIT
====

I forgot to add, the SOM* files exist in other directories as well, such as:

1) \os2\etc\dsom
2) \os2\system

Not sure to what extent, if any, these may be impacting you, but as I mentioned above I did take to making a backup of the good & working known compies in case they every "go away":

Code: [Select]
Directory of G:\os2\etc\dsom

 8-25-18  6:06p         <DIR>    701 ----  .
 8-25-18  6:06p         <DIR>    528 ----  ..
 5-19-25 12:01p         6,384      0 a---  SOMDCLS.DAT

 5-19-25 12:01p         6,844      0 a---  SOMDCLS.TOC
11-10-98  9:36p         6,904      0 a---  SOMDCLS.TOC.working-state

 5-19-25 12:01p            60      0 a---  SOMDIMPL.TOC
11-10-98  9:36p           172      0 a---  SOMDIMPL.TOC.working-state
       10 file(s)      30,908 bytes used
                   44,076,982 K bytes free

AND

Code: [Select]
Directory of G:\os2\system

 6-30-99  4:34p        15,056      0 a---  SOMD.MSG
 7-30-96  9:42p        15,056      0 a---  SOMD.MSG.working-state
 6-30-99  4:34p           780      0 a---  SOME_OS2.MSG
 7-30-96  9:14p           780      0 a---  SOME_OS2.MSG.working-state
 6-30-99  4:34p         3,718      0 a---  SOMK.MSG
 7-30-96  8:23p         3,724      0 a---  SOMK.MSG.working-state
 7-30-96 10:05p         1,403      0 a---  SOMR_OS2.MSG
 7-30-96 10:18p         3,527      0 a---  SOMUCOS2.MSG
        8 file(s)      44,044 bytes used
                   44,076,982 K bytes free

It's been a while though, and some of this may have been precautionary backup as I installed things such as VisualAge CPP, etc.

i deleted that file and i also deleted the whole folder. nothing helped..
i wonder where else the "(wrong) information of another installed warpin could be stored...

OS2.INI seems to have the PATH to warpin stored here. Fire up regedit2 and look close to the end of HINI_USER_PROFILE for the Warpin entry. Here it shows the expected W:\sys\install\warpin

Hello

On this page: https://www.os2.kr/komh/os2books/smpadd-19970312/046_L2_HighMemorySupportFun.html

There is listed "DosQueryState", and I can not find any reference to that function. I don't think it exists.

Do you think it may be a typo ? Maybe it is "DosQueryMemState"  because it is after "DosQueryMem"???

Regards

Hello

I also forgot to clarify my intention or what I want to accomplish.

On the EDM/2 wiki you can link thing to other wiki pages. So when I want to link some specifics "Device Helpers", I get the issue should I standardize the names to "DevHlp_" or "DevHelp_".

I haven't decided yet.

Hello

I think I missed this article at it's time. It was posted on June 22, 2020, and it tells the story on how Scott Schweitzer created the first OS/2 install CD for the "OS/2 Professional Developer's Kit (PDK)".

Thanks for the feedback Steven.

I will be checking devhlp.lib and devhlp.h to get a better idea. It is good to know this inconsistency is for historical reasons.
