    Description:
    We get the message "Error in library name" when we try to dlib to our abc01, abc50, etc., libraries.

    These libraries *are* set up. We have checked the "library_relation" table in the $alephe_tab directory, and the "prof_library" table for each library, and have not seen any problem there.

    Resolution:
    The message "Error in library name" occurs because the library is not present in the "ALEPH_LIBS" line in aleph_start / aleph_start.private.

    (Also, to confirm that a library is or is not in $aleph_libs, enter the command " echo $aleph_libs ".)
