Problem: I get the error message:

Abnormal application termination, signal number=11.

Solution: This usually results when an application is not terminated via the provided exit menu button or by issuing "ctrl-C". Use of the Motif Window manager's close feature is not supported due to its unclean exiting.

Problem: I am unable to get selection boxes under TCAT or various TestWorks products and I am using Solaris 2.5.1.

Solution: The OS has a motif bug which can be fixed by obtaining and installing SUN's Solaris 2.5.1 patch server #103461-03.

Problem: I am not able to get CAPBAK/X to record due to error:

Can't find Xtest for recording

Solution: Your X Server does not contain the necessary server extensions. Please use xdpyinfo | more to verify extensions found. Install if available.

Problem: I am not able to get CAPBAK/X to record due to error:

can't find DEC-XTRAP

Solution: Please install onto local clients the necessary DEC-XTRAP extension which, if available, is in $SR/lib/xtrap off the TestWorks regression bundle. Use "xdpyinfo | more" to verify number of extensions found.

Note: for some X-terminal clients, you will need to seek vendor for this "if available" feature DEC-XTRAP.

Problem: I run the stw program, but the TestWorks menu doesn't pop up at the upper left corner of the screen...

Solution: The stw program and other TestWorks graphical user interface (GUI) components read the application resource file (SR) at start-up. The TestWorks menu's geometry is set to pop up at location +0+0 (upper left corner).

If the TestWorks menu pops up elsewhere, it may mean that the SR resource file is not in the right location. It must be in /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults for the X Window System or $OPENWINHOME/lib/app-defaults for OpenWindows 3.0.

If the problem persists even when the SR file is placed correctly, type the following for the X Window System and OpenWindows 2.0:

xrdb -merge /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/SR
For Open Windows 3.0, type
xrdb -merge /usr/openwin/lib/app-defaults/SR

Problem: My resources are set correctly, but they are not recognized.

Solution: For X application resource entries within the SR resource file (especially boolean entries): only a tab forces recognition unlike the normal space(s)/tab combination.

capbakX5*option*outputSyncSwitch.set: True or Mwm*clientAutoPlace: False
