Steven,
I tested dcredbook linux64 build with your command and saw no error.
Mailbox errors usually mean a GPLT process was not ended (with GPEND).
The commad "cleanup -c" will remove all hung processes related to GEMPAK.
Try this cleanup before dcredbook again. If the problem persists, send
back the output of "ldd $OS_BIN/dcredbook" as there may be a missing
library.
What what GEMPAK version is this, and did you install a binary or from
source?
