Without it, the server will never start. and 2.) the HTTP PORT ${HTTPPORT:=8081} line was
what enabled it. That's a Hercules v4.x Hyperion configuration file statement, *not* a Hercules v3.x configuration file statement. Originally, Hercules supported two "http" statements: HTTPPORT and HTTPROOT: * and, as just explained, it is the existence of the HTTPPORT statement which triggers the server to start. Starting with Hercules 4.0 however, both statements were deprecated and replaced with the "HTTP" statement instead: * Now, with Hercules 4.x, you specify all HTTP Server configuration values via the "HTTP" statement. One specifying the server's root directory ("HTTP ROOT directory") and the other specifying the port number the server should listen for connections on ("HTTP PORT nnnn ..."). But even then (even with *both* statements specified), with Hercules 4.x, the server will not automatically start. To start the Hercules HTTP Server, with Hercules 4.x, you have to *explicitly* specify that you *want* it to be started, via either the "HTTP START" configuration file statement, or the "http start" command: * So in summary, the "HTTPPORT" statement is a Hercules 3.x statement, whereas the "HTTP PORT" statement is a Hercules 4.x statement, which requires a separate "http start" command (or configuration file statement). Hope that helps! I learn something new every day. Indeed. The day I myself stop learning new things is the day I've died and gone to my grave. :) -- "Fish" (David B.

VM/370 Community Edition Version 1 Release 1.2 is now available
The new release may be downloaded from ?now.
The new features and fixes are described in the readme-vmce-1_1_2.txt
document in the downloaded folder. Also in that folder are readme files
for the previous VMCE releases, and supplemental documents on
how to integrate virtual DOSVS and TK4- MVS operating systems under
VM.?
I plan to close the fixed issues on the issue web pages at
?
As usual, we can discuss new issues on this email forum,
but it can be difficult to remember and find these discussions
after a few weeks have gone by :-) Please open new issues,
so that errors are corrected in future versions.
I am proud of the way so many people contribute to our

Re: VM370CE Version 1 Release 1.2 Release Candidate
Hi Mark W.,
It's true that the VMSE MAINT procedures are slightly different than the process
described by Melinda and the other document you named. Mark S. pointed out the
MAINT MEMO file, where we want to describe this stuff. I made the VMSETUP EXEC
to be similar to the VMFSETUP EXEC in the later VM releases which use the SES facility.
In a typical customer site, in the 70s, you had IBM supplied base code, IBM fixes, and
local customer modifications. In VMCE, you have IBM code, IBM fixes, VMCE modifications,
and a 4th level is code modifications added by you. That is really the only difference.
I build my own local modifications on the MAINT A work disk, and then copy them to the?
594 (for CP) or 593 (for CMS) when they are finished. To go to a new VMSE release, you can
copy the 594 and 593 to the new system (using a virtual tape or VMARC file download and
upload). Of course, you may have to rework any local modifications, if VMSE made changes
to the same source files.
Please send in any specific question that are not answered by MAINT MEMO, and we can update it.
Thanks for testing/Bob

Subject: Re: [h390-vm] VM370CE Version 1 Release 1.2 Release Candidate? Bob, Dave, et al:
So far, what I do not see or cannot seem to find is a "How To" guide for how to make any local modifications to the VM/CE system, e.g. something along the lines of Linda Varian's "What mother never told you ..." or the WSC orange book "VM Maintenance Simplified" ...
Also, how should I carry forward any local modifications that I have made to my copy of VM/CE V1.R1.1 into the new version?
I would also prefer to see a more consistent naming standard or convention for the versions and releases of VM/CE, e.g. rather than "V1.R1.1" I would prefer either "1.1.1" or "V1R1M1" ... so for this new version, either "1.1.2" or "V1R1M2".? ?
Thanks in advance.

Re: VM370CE Version 1 Release 1.2 Release Candidate
Hi Bob,
I downloaded the zip file for CE 1.2 RC with much eagerness.? I
have only checked out the README and found in the Changes section
that items 25 & 42 concerning the PASCAL compiler conflict...
Looking forward to carving out some time to try it out.
Thank you to all of the hard work to the maintainers and
contributors.
Regards,
Gary

Thanks
to all contributors, I am pleased to post a test version of
the third
release of VMCE. This is a release candidate version, and is
available for anyone
to download, for testing purposes. I would like to set a
target date for the final 1.1.2
version for about 2 weeks from now. If you have time to take a
look and comment
here in the forum, I would really appreciate it.
The downloaded unzipped directory from my DROPBOX contains
file:
readme-vmce-1_1_2.txt which provides a list of the changes.
I hope you take a look and find some bugs.
