Hello,

When you post attachments, you limit the number of people who can help you. . . Many are not able to download attachments due to security reasons. Using copy/paste and the "Code" tag the results are properly aligned (like a 3270-screen).

While we have a few people with Hercules experience, more info is available here:

the Hercules emulator has been successfully installed and is running
You need to IPL an operating system, but You already know that!

Hercules provides the bare metal the rest is up to You

hi
after installing, on hercules command prompt i entered

Hercules [-f ] [-d] [-p dyndir] [-l dynmod] [>loffile]



in a relply i got access denied

please correct me if am going wrong

in a simple environment the only parameters needed are the -f for the config file and the redirection for the hercules log

still from the first screenshot hercules is up and ready to IPL the OS

access denied.... to what ?

we cannot correct anything because You did not tell anything useful
