Timm,


For what it's worth, under VMS, this error typically means that you've
run out
of disk quota, e.g. IDL is trying to create a file somewhere, and you
either don't have the physical disk space available or as Craig
suggested, you don't
have the correct permissions. Same diff I suppose.

into the
Linux universe...)
