The thing is that I have copied the file (as you may see, I did 'ls
-lA' on it. If the file wasnt there, the error message was different.
Also, the setMibPath doesent seem to work, as I tried to set up it to
any value, and right after that I was performing getMibPath which was
giving me unchanged default paths. Keep in mind, that whole path setu
up code has executed without any error.
So, what is correct and working way to supply my code with that
converted mib file?
