Bill,

Bad news.

This tells me that your MCPATH environment setting is most likely incorrect.
It should read like:

MCPATH=/home/mcidas/workdata:/home/mcidas/data:/home/mcidas/help

Also, if MCPATH is not defined, it will default to:

MCPATH=/home/mcidas/data:/home/mcidas/help

This is not what you want, AND may be the cause of all of your problems.

Do you want me to login to poke around, or do you want to handle this
yourself?
