Re: [PilotMgr] hot sync - initial failure

["Carl P. Soffronoff" <Carl.Soffronoff@xxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

A quick status update...

I forgot to mention that my primary SunRay 1 desktop unit in a
multi-head configuration died.  After replacing the bad DTU, I had to
change the USB port reference for both the USB-based Palm cradle but
also for the local USB-based printer.  I fixed the USB-based Palm
cradle reference since that declaration is in my home directory.

However, I did not have permission to change the printer since that's
under root control.  Once the Sys Admin changed my local printer
reference, pilot-mgr began working again.  Why the two seem
interconnected somehow escapes me.  Since the Sys Admin knows nothing
about hot-syncing with pilot-mgr, he wouldn't hazzard a guess.

regards...Carl

| Hi,
| 
| I started getting the following message when trying to initiate
| a hot sync operation where I clicked on the tool's hot sync button
| but had not yet done so for my PalmV.  Are there any recommendations
| on where the source of the problem might be.  Please note that the
| last time I tried to do a hot sync (this past Monday), I did not
| see this error message.
| 
| thanks in advance!!...Carl
