Hi,
My AIX make fails with this error message:

make: 1254-002 Cannot find a rule to create target meds909.pco from
dependencies.
Stop.

The make file is unusual, I suppose, since it is generic, without
hardcoded program names. So, this one make file is intended to work
for hundreds of COBOL programs.

The make works OK on Digital Unix, 4.0D, but fails on AIX 4.3.3

Any suggestions?

Command:
make -f /appl/prod/pbcms/bin/mfcob.mk meds909.pco

mfcob.mk file:

Thank you.

Hi,
you wrote that you called
make -f /appl/prod/pbcms/bin/mfcob.mk meds909.pco

According to you makefile, the "pco" extension concerns
the source file. Therefore, you sould call "make meds909" or
"make meds909.exe", or "make meds909.o", but not make the source
file.

Regards,
Stéphane GASSIES

Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
make -f /appl/prod/pbcms/bin/mfcob.mk meds909

(without the pco) gives the same exact error message.

What can I do?
