I’m used to trying long shots to get things to work, and I came up with an idea and said “… nah – that can’t be it”.

So, I’m using Vista TN3270 and my 3270 terminal software.? I was wondering if that was causing the issue somehow.

So, I got a different program.

I started Hercule 4.7 on my Ubuntu AWS instance and connected with the new software and … the system starts just fine and runs.

So, somehow, the Vista 3270 software -> Hercules 4.x? -> MTS is a bad combination.

Bizarre.
Interesting!
What TN3270 software do you all use? The one that I have that works is Mocha TN3270, but it has hideos fonts.
I mostly use ‘x3270’ here on macOS, and have also played a bit with ‘c3270’. At one point I think I looked into using ’tn3270’, but it doesn’t look like that has been updated since 2013 and the binary for that doesn’t run on modern versions of macOS.
