IDLDE linux cannot create workspace [message #78301] Fri, 04 November 2011 11:40

Hi everyone,

I never use the DE, so I have never encountered this, but one of my
students is trying to run it for IDL 8.0 on a Linux box (I think it's
RHEL, not sure what version) and we keep getting the following error on
startup:

Workspace in use or cannot be created, choose a different one.

It is not actually in use - if you give it a completely new directory,
it will pause for a minute and then give the same error ad infinitum.

Command line works fine:

IDL> print, !version
{ x86_64 linux unix linux 8.0 Jun 18 2010 64 64}


Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

-Jeremy.
