[ic] A permissions question

["Daniel LaRoe" <fxdjl@fxdjl.dcc.uaf.edu>]

I have looked in the documentation, and I can't find anything regarding this 
problem, so I am turning to this list for any light anyone can shine on this 
problem I am having with MiniVend/Interchange.

I'm trying to install Interchange-4.5.5, and am encountering problems with 
the 'make test' portion. It's obviously a permissions problem, but I can't 
figure out which file I'm having the permissions problem with. I have done a 
'chown -R minivend:minivend *' for the whole installation directory, and I 
configured interchange to use the minivend userid. I switched user (su) to 
the minivend userid for the test. Per some instructions from the list archives, 
I removed the minivend.pid file from blib/etc between test runs. I still can't 
seem to get the test to succeed. As a desperate, last-ditch measure, I even 
tried to set up minivend-4.04a in a different directory, and it got the exact 
same results. If anybody has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate hearing 
them. If you could even just point me to a list of files that are likely culprits, 
I'd be grateful. 

I'm running this on perl 5.6.0  on an HP9000 running HP-UX 10.20. The 
'perl Makefile.PL' went fine, and the 'make' ran without a complaint. I just get 
the results below when I issue the 'make test' command.

                      Thanks for your help, 
                              Daniel LaRoe
