Thanks for the big help. I overlooked the $TMPDIR have been defined (and
therefore interfered) by an application program. The problem went away by
defining $TMPDIR as /tmp.

Subject: Re: LAM: Cannot remove a directory...

Hi

I notice that the directory is ./lam-xxx_at_linux2. What is the absolute path?
By default, we use ${TMPDIR} or if that is not set /tmp is used for
lam-xxx_at_hostname directory. Did you change these settings? Also, your problem
is not quite the same as the post. As the error indicates, this directory
./lam-xxx_at_linux2 was not found as opposed to the posting where the directory
was found but not removable. Could you tell us know more about what
environment variables/parameters you are using.

Regards,
Anju
