We get the following error when installing Netware 6.5 SP6. Several other servers with similar h/w configurations installed with NO issues. We rebooted server,and it came back up okay. We can see volumes. eDir did not get updated and is still at 8.7.3.8. Tried to restart SP install and it returns to the same error message. I have recopied SP out to server in new directory. Any guess on what we can try next? See error message below. thanks, Lin Error: An error occurred while parsing file "SYS1:SupportNWNW65SP6SPINSTALLSILENT.ICS", line 253, at or near word or symbol "CF_OPENFILE". Error description: Syntax error. (nwconfig-6-232) Pressto continue.

Does your server have a file bti.cfg in the system directory and is that file not marked RO? -- Marcel Cox (Sysop) Discover the new Novell forums at http://forums.novell.com

Yes, there is a BTI file. Not read only. Lin

Could you post your bti.cfg file so I can see that it is not corrupted? The line in the SP install where your error occurs is in fact the line where the install tries to edit your BTI.CFG file. PS. I suggest you use the new web interface at http://forums.novell.com/novell-product-support-forums/open-enterprise-server/oes-netware/oes-nw-install-upgrade/281947-error-installing-netware-6-5-sp6-error-parsing.html to post your file because the old interface has a tendency to badly mangle some characters in files posted. -- Marcel Cox (Sysop) Discover the new Novell forums at http://forums.novell.com

We chose to just remove this server from the tree since the hardware is getting so old, 6 year old server. We are looking to replace it with a newer server. We moved the applications to another server which is still under Dell warranty since this turned out to be a mission critical application. Thanks for your help and suggestion. thanks, Lin
