I have installed emacs 20.7 into a private/local  area. I have checked in
the epaths.h that and load-path is correct and points to the lisp directory.
When I am done installing I can open an run emacs - once/first time and
everytime works. It finds the lisp files and the path.  If I keep this emacs
open and open another emacs - the second emacs cannot find any lisp files
and acts like it has the wrong load-path but I cannot check since "view"
file cannot be fount to open.   (I have tried with a .emacs that has the
correct load-path specified and without .emacs).  Finally if I close all the
emacs programs (including the first) then all other emacs that open never
finds the lisp file path again.  
 
Is there away to hard code the search path for the lisp file?
Why does it work after the inital install but never again?
 
 
I would say the compile or epaths.h setting were wrong but the first emacs
after install works great but only that emacs and I cannot ever exit it -
then emacs never works again.
 
I am trying to install it  on a SUN sparc 2.6.  Any help so it can find the
lisp directory after install.  I have checked the load-path.  The machine
also has Xemacs 19.4 installed in the usr/local area.
