I think WorldVista is great stuff. I'm living in Zurich Switzerland and would like to adapt this for the Swiss market. At the moment I'm still fighting with the installation. I posted following question to the Mailinglist:


Q1: When do I have to run GTM>D ^ZTMGRSET


A1: If you started with OpenVistA SemiVivA, you do not need to set any environment variables to get started, and you do not need to run ^ZTMGRSET - I have already run ^ZTMGRSET when packaging OpenVistA SemiVivA and OpenVistA VivA. I suggest deleting what you have, and starting over. - just install OpenVistA SemiViva as root and then as a normal user execute /usr/local/OpenVistA/vista.

^ZTMGRSET's understanding of the behavior of GT.M's $ZROUtines is somewhat simplistic, and you will need to understand more about GT.M's $ZROUtines if you want to run ZTMGRSET in a VivA or SemiVivA environment. It's actually very simple to set up and run it - just 2 shell commands before you invoke mumps -run ^ZTMGRSET - but you should really understand what is going on before you try a command that makes major changes to the VistA setup.


Q2: Where do I set the Variables, and how to I start Vista with some Variables?


A2: You set the varibales in .bash_profile if you do the manual install
source /usr/local/gtm/gtmprofile
export vista_source=/usr/local/OpenVistA
export vista_home=/home/vista
export gtm_log=$vista_home/log
export gtmgbldir=$vista_home/g/mumps.gld
export gtmroutines="$vista_home/o($vista_home/r)
$vista_source/o($vista_source/r) $gtm_dist"

Watch out for line breaks - there are 6 lines above, one starting with "source" and 5 starting with "export".

If you use the script /usr/local/OpenVistA/vista, you do not need to set any variables.


Q3: Did I forget any step? At witch step should I start, so I do not get below error?
vista@Minerva ~ $ FOIAVistA/vista --run

GTM>D Q^DI

VA FileMan 22.0

Your Identity(DUZ) is 0(zero). Please identify yourself.

Access Code:

Your Identity(DUZ) is still 0(zero). You need to identify yourself!

New Person?:
You must have a valid DUZ!


A3: Before you do above, try:
GTM>S DUZ=.01


Q4: Any hints what would be nice to try as next step?


A4: Your work has only just begun. The configuration is the hard part. May I refer you to the following site to help get you started.

VistA-Office will soon be coming out and the web site that provides vendor support for it, when it really gets up and running should have a lot of configuration information. Configuration information for VistA on Cache/Windows and GTM/Linux is almost identical.
