[Info-vax] Error installing DECSet

[antonio.duran at gmail.com]

Hello everyone,

My name is Antonio. I was an Ada programmer on DEC/VAX back in the late 80's. No sysadmin skills. I managed to get up and running an instance of OpenVMS 7.3 on simh on a Raspberry Pi and I'm getting errors when trying to install the DECSet 12.2 kit that I got.

I downloaded a zip (DECSET122.zip) file which I unzipped on the Raspi, then create an iso image with the unzipped contents and mount that iso file in the virtual CDROM unit of my OpenVMS instance (DUA3:).

$ dir DUA3:[000000]

Directory DUA3:[000000]

DECSET_A.A;1        DECSET_A.B;1        DECSET_A.C;1        DECSET_A.D;1
DECSET_A.E;1        DECSET_A.F;1        DECSET_A.G;1        DECSET_A.H;1
DECSET_A.I;1        DECSET_A.J;1        DECSET_A.TXT;1

Total of 11 files.

When I try to VMSINSTAL:

$ @VMSINSTAL DECSET122 DUA3:[000000] OPTIONS N


        OpenVMS VAX Software Product Installation Procedure V7.3

Enter a question mark (?) at any time for help.

* Are you satisfied with the backup of your system disk [YES]?

%VMSINSTAL-E-NOPRODS, None of the specified products were found.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Antonio
