Re: clipper dos program not able to access its files although they do exist

Hello,

I even started dosemu as root which should disable all obstacles
eventually imposed by dosemu.  In addition, permissions 777 did not
work.
I do not get any other error messages except dos program not being
able to find its .cdx files although they are there.
Is there any special part in boot.log that I should pay attention to?

Best wishes,

Vedran Vucic
