SQR 4.3 Installation Question for VMS

[Nick Moscaritolo <nmoscaritolo@LNMTA.BENTLEY.EDU>]

Hello all,

We are trying to install SQR 4.3 on our DEC ALPHA box   running VMS 7.1 and
ORACLE 7.3.

The installation instructions ask us to issue the BACKUP command to copy
files from the CD to directories which the process should create. The
BACKUP command is as follows:

     BACKUP cd_device:SQR.BCK/SAVE [.]*.*/REPLACE/LOG

 **** Please note that  "[.]" causes a ".DIR" to be created at the root
level.

The docs state that the directories will be

     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.{db_code}.BIN]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.{db_code}.LIB]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.{db_code}.IMAGES]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.{db_code}.README]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.{db_code}.SAMPLE]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.{db_code}.TUTORIAL]

** db_code will be ORA for ORACLE

In reality, these directories were created

     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.BIN]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.LIB]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.IMAGES]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.README]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.SAMPLE]
     {your_disk_drive}:[SQR_INSTALL.TUTORIAL]

additionally,

All files, that should have been copied to the above directories, were
copied to the root directory.

Any ideas ?????
