Do you, indeed, have the DECWindows server started?
Is there a Gxx0: device?   Configured?   Channels assigned?


DECWindows is started and I do NOT have a Gxx0: device.

Try setting SYSGEN parameter STARTUP_P2 to "VDC" in a conversational boot
and then continue.   You will find a STARTUP.LOG file in SYS$SYSTEM which
might hold some clues. ;)


I would...except the error is generated from VAXELN. ;)
