Gaussx installation fails with message "Operand missing"

This information applies to GaussX, Vsn  3.8 and prior under GAUSS 5.0 or later.

Symptoms

On running the Gaussx setup, the installation quits with the message:

Compiling TESTX

Line 323 in c:\gauss50\gsx\gaussx\testx.src  Operand missing G0064

c:\gauss50\gsx\gaussx4.set(92) : error G0511 : Program compile failed

Cause

GAUSS 5.0 introduced a new set of reserved words (for arrays), one of which (amean) was used as an ordinary variable name in testx.src

Resolution

Edit the file c:\gauss\gsx\gaussx\testx.src, and change all occurrences of the
word
amean to avmean. Then  from the GAUSS prompt, type:

      >> run gsx\gaussx.cpl;
