man page problem on Solaris 2.1

2007-12-25 8:24:00

My original question:

Hopefully, this is a quick one. I am running 2.1 on a Sparc10. When I try to use the man pages, I get the following message:

Reformatting page. Wait...

nroff: Cannot create temp file.

done

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I will summarize.

I have received many responses and they all point to either:

1) /tmp partition is full

2) permissions on /tmp are incorrect. change perms to be wide open.

Many thanks to those who responded.
