That happened to me more than once with some older pre-built monitors, then went away when I did my own install and build of 7.04, so I do not have a solution, and at the time I hadn't any knowledge about TOPS-10. That does not mean that now I'm very proficient on it, but... I have the reverse issue, surprisingly. The monitor provided with TWONKY works fine, but my generated monitors do not work with it. Upon further investigation, the problem is with OPR.EXE. It WILL NOT execute on my generated monitor. The one provided with TWONKY works fine though. .... Make sure that ORION and other Galaxy processes are all there and that none of them shows a "^C" or "TO" status (IIRC). Also compare processes between TWONKY and your installation and see if there are any differences. It looks like I'm not linking something in to the monitor or not enabling a certain feature. It'd be helpful if TWONKY provided the output from the MONGEN dialogue... OPR is just a client that talks to a daemon process so maybe it just stalls because the daemon is not working, not responding, or not there. Compare contents of SYS:SYSJOB.INI too.
