I consistently get this error, unless I run GTM as root. I am using RH 9 Linux and GTM 4.3-001E. Everything was working fine and I have no problems on another RH 9 system (also running 4.3-001E). I believe my problems began after I installed some RH 9 updates. Any ideas how I can resolve this problem?

Check permissions on /tmp which is where GT.M
creates sockets by default. They can be redirected
by defining an environment variable gtm_tmp but all
GT.M processes using the same database need to
use the same place. ls -lad /tmp should look like
drwxrwxrwt 6 root root 81920 Jul 26 23:21 /tmp/

Hi,
I have recently started getting the following error for any GTM database operation:
GTM>w $d(^A)
%GTM-E-MUTEXERR, Mutual Exclusion subsystem failure
%GTM-I-TEXT, Error with mutex socket bind
%SYSTEM-E-ENO13, Permission denied

Thank you! Problem resolved: I had set gtm_tmp to a directory that was owned by root but not writable by other users.
