This is usually an installation problem. The manager.tcl script will
start up automatically if your installation is ok. Please check the
following:

1) Make sure that scotty and tkined were configured with the same
prefix, e.g. ./configure --prefix=$HOME. If you want to use
different prefixes for scotty and tkined, you must make sure that
the variable TKINED_DIR points to the same location in the scotty
and tkined Makefiles.

2) Make sure that you rebuild everything from scratch if you change
the Makefiles or if you re-run the configure script. This makes
sure that all changes will be reflected in the compiled in default
pathes.

3) If you make changes in your sources to get things up and running and
you are not 100 % sure that your changes do not create other
problems, please unpack you sources again and start from
scratch. Seems to help in some cases.
