I don't really understand what you are asking. My setup is FLRH9.0 with
ROOT 4.00/03 on two identical machines. The ROOT commands in my
original message used to create a new Pad and the text output "bbh" on
both machines. I tried to install ODBC functionality to ROOT by
following the web page (skipping the MySQL steps, because I already have
it). Now the commands don't work on my machine any more. To do any
work with ROOT, I need to go over to the other machine where I have not
tried the ODBC install. (Luckily, my stand-alone programs, which use
ROOT libraries, still function on the afflicted machine!)
Somehow, during my ODBC install, I broke ROOT! I did nothing all day
except run my usual ROOT routines in the morning, attempt the install,
and (try and fail to) run my *same* usual ROOT routines in the afternoon.
Maybe I should just uninstall all the ODBC stuff. (It is perhaps a bad
sign for the "freshness" of the install instructions that your email
address there does not work.) I have already tried rebuilding with
"gmake clean all, gmake install" in the ROOT area and got no joy.
