The problem was solved bei using the truss command in combination with ovw, i.e.
truss ovw; the output shows that the directory where ovw expects the nls
subdirectory did not exist. There were two workarounds:
a) Set Environmentvariable XNLSPATH to the new location of nls, i.e.
/vol/X11R5/lib/X11/nls
(Thanks to Patrick O'Brien <pobrien@cfa.harvard.edu>)
b) Make a symbolic link from the existing directory /vol/X11R5/lib/X11/nls
to the expected directory which did not exist.
Thanks
Manfred
