Hi Steve,

mkdir /tmp/ldm
cd /tmp/ldm
tar -xzf ldm-6.12.14.tar.gz
cd ldm-6.12.14
./configure
grep ^LDMHOME Makefile
LDMHOME = /tmp

Donna,

Your problem is consistent with $LDMHOME being set to "/home" (rather than
"/home/ldm") when the configure(1) script was executed.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson

   I found out why. $HOME was correctly set to /home/ldm but when I made
$LDMHOME=/home/ldm then this problem does not appear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have set up our LDM systems with LDMHOME=/home/ldm

So, why do I see an error that the directory /home/etc cannot be made?

 This error seems to cause the location of the file regutil.xml to be in
the wrong place
​:​

[ldm@ldm3 ~]$ regutil

regutil ERROR: No such file or directory

So, why do I see an error that the directory /home/etc cannot be made?
