I had the same problem. NetView would not run on the system's console, but
would run on an x-term.

The important Locale is en_US.ISO8859-1 (as stated in the release notes for
NetView 7.1). If it's not set then the GUI will die!

If you start the common desktop environment, you must choose this locale
from the Options box of the logon screen. To set this locale to be the
default  place the following lines in the file /etc/default/init

TZ=whatever is your local timezone
LC_COLLATE=en_US.ISO8849-1
LC_TYPE=en_US.ISO8849-1
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.ISO8849-1
LANG=en_US
LC_MONETARY=en_US.ISO8849-1
LC_NUMERIC=en_US.ISO8849-1
LC_TIME=en_US.ISO8849-1

Good luck
John

V7.1 Release Notes states that correct LANG and LC_MESSAGES for Solaris is
en_US.ISO8859-1.

Is this of any importance after the installation process?

The NVenvironment script in /usr/OV/bin set LANG to en_US ?
Is this a problem of the script not adapted to Solaris, or
it simply doens't matter?
