Trying to resize a file but getting error message that file is in use, try again later.

I've installed Rocket Open AppDev for Z (free solution), but Python doesn't seem to be working quite right. In particular, I'm getting different behavior based on whether I invoke Python via executing the script vs. invoking Python manually and passing it the script.  For example, with the following sample test.py: #!/z/rocket/tools/bin/python print("Hello world!") If I invoke Python explicitly and pass it the script, it works just fine: $ /z/rocket/tools/bin/python test.py Hello world! If I instead invoke the script directly, I get the following. $ ./test.py ./test.py: can't open file '/u/z123/SHELL=/z/rocket/tools/bin/bash': [Errno 129] EDC5129I No such file or directory. That looks like it's somehow interpreting the environment being passed to python ("SHELL=...") as the script name it's supposed to execute.  Indeed, if I then pass the script name as the first argument, it works: $ ./test.py test.py Hello world! Stranger still, I don't see this behavior with scripts that i

Hi all - any advice here, please? (or please explain my "potential" misunderstanding :) I am experiencing difficulties in understanding why when attempting to use the D3 SQL ISQL commands. I have this version : On executing: which I checked in the code and the code looks for an implementation > 8. Furthermore, from the documentation I see that there is a NT_ISQL verb; which I also attempted  This one just drops to TCL - the code looks for (field function) a '~' separator which I give: And then things get "pear-shaped" 

Working on a routine to take HTML input and convert HTML entities like < and &gt to their character equivalent.  However, HTML entities are case insensitive, so the input string might be <, <, &lT; or ≪.  Is there a clean way to search for < in the string without case sensitivity so the value can be replaced with "<"?

I have this phantom program that runs for a bit and then just stops functioning.  The program continues to run, but doesn't do what it's supposed to do and does not respond to any control inputs other than a Linux kill.  Seems to be caught in some kind of a dead loop.  There are no READU locks preventing the program from running, it just ... doesn't do anything after it's been running for a while. Is there any way to connect the Unidata debugger to the phantom to evaluate variables or step through the program?

I'm a very small shop, only 9 employees.  I recently brought my D3 server back in house after a stint in the cloud.  I'm running D3 on AlmaLinux.  The hardware is an HP Z2 workstation with an i5-12500 6 core processor, 16GB Ram and 2 SSD's.  I do most of my tech support myself, but sometimes farm some work out to a local IT support company, Top Notch.  They're recommending I switch to / embrace virtualization and recommending Windows Server with Hyper-V.  I'm not a big fan of Windows and no next to nothing about virtualization, but I've seen posts about the benefits.  I'm just wondering if the Windows Server is the best solution for me. Any thoughts? TIA, Bruce

I have installed BDT 4.5.0 on my Windows 10 laptop. I'm connecting to UV 11.3.4 on RHEL 8.8. I get errors trying to connect. So the question is: Do I have to give the unirpc process access to write to my VOC file? We just installed 11.3.4 on our server. What updates are needed? What sequential file failed to open (guessing it was a log file of some sort). If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be appreciated.

Hi. I've found these forums extremely helpful, especially Pete's posts who's an absolute gem! Today, I need help on a topic which I tried to look up for so many days but didn't find. We've a requirement where we need to do away with PuTTY which we currently use to launch some Linux utilities. Since our tech stack is PICK/UniVerse, what better alternative would be than to leverage AccuTerm 7/8. However, the challenge with this approach we're facing is after we launch the utility, the control is handed over to the program in question (which is nothing but a CLI launched with EXECUTE 'sh -c "./Dashboard"'), and at this point if a user prematurely Closes (or Exits) AccuTerm, it keeps running on the Linux host machine which somehow isn't the case with PuTTY. Thank you.

Hi everyone,How can I use d3py in my Python applications outside of my "d3 box"?I mean, I have created a Python application in my d3 server, and it runs fine using the import d3py, but I want to use it in my Web Server to create my Web App or API endpoint, I have errors to importing d3py outside from my d3server, it says not found the module d3py.How can I implement a Python application with d3py outside of my (D3/Win) Pick server box? It doesn't work moving manually the files or making a map drive.Thank you,

Hello , I have been installing and checking MVVS for a few days now and I have a questions , problems :   - GO TO DEFINITION function - always returns "No definition found for '' " - GO TO REFERENCES function - always returns "No references found for '' ".   do i need to set something?? Displayed functions:

in my phantom log  I saw the msg  cp: failed to close (specific file name), I looked at the file checked permissions and  everything looked good. In the program it processed all of the previous files with no errors. the last for file showed these errors. the programs are running on 15 different server and none of the other servers have this issue. comments? help? Thanks, Theo

I'm trying to work out the correct syntax for the "select" option to "limit the returned results" when testing in Swagger using a UniVerse database as the data source. For example, I have a date field and want to select all the dates in a specific year. Is there some documentation that details how this works? I've tried standard UniVerse syntax, standard SQL syntax, but neither of these seem to do what I want to do.

My application seems to be blocking the ssh connection from Visual Studio Code to my Linux server. With other Rocket products the user is identified as terminal, phantom, uvnet, etc. Is there a special type for the login from MVVS?

I have a Python script that uploads a program and tries to compile it. But every time it compile my program errors because we use Pick.  Can we set up some options so the command executes using Pick flavor?  I already tried setting the TCLTYPE before running the command, but it doesn't work.

Somewhere along the line, we have lost the setting in SB client where if you highlight and copy some text on the screen, then paste it into something (like NotePad++ or an email), it loses the CR/LFs.  This means, instead of retaining the format from the screen, the pasted result is one big string on a single line. Where is the setting to tell SB client to keep the CR (CR/LF) when you copy data from the screen? Thanks JRI

I have developed a more comprehensive front end to the jBASE spooling process which handles all of its functions but can’t find out how one of its security features works.  When setting the form queue or job security (see below), one of the types it asks for is GROUP but this isn’t an option that’s defined in the jBASE documentation.  Does anyone know how this works and where the spooler looks for it in the system? 1.

Hello everyone,Firstly, I have to say that this is my first experience of attempting to use UOPY so please forgive any obvious mistakes on my part.   The issue which I am looking for some guidance on is as follows:I can log into Universe via an ssh terminal, issue command such as:SELECT CDC.CARD WITH ID = "1234567890123456" TO 1LIST CDC.CARD CARDNUM FROM 1This selects one record into list number one and outputs the ID and CARDNUM values.   CARDNUM Is a calculated field and is decrypted / displayed correctly when the operations are performed as above.However, when using UOPY, I replicate the above using something similar to the below:cmd=uopy.Command(f'LIST {filename} CARDNUM FROM {list_number}',ses) cmd.run()Inspecting the cmd object shows that there's an error in decrypting the value, with the full error message as follows:error:06065064:digital envelope routines:EVP_DecryptFinal_ex:bad decrypt:crypto/evp/evp_enc.c:570I understand that the Command objects should be

Is there a version of makeudt for AIX which utilizes the xlc c compiler.  The version we are using utilizes cc and after our AIX  upgrade we need to utilize xlc

Our program uses a pre-compile routine which modifies the code before running the BASIC command to create the object code. Since Rocket MVVS appears to call the BASIC command when compiling, I'm wondering if there might be a way to call our pre-compile routine instead of BASIC.We're in the process of adopting Git and this would help us take full advantage of Rocket MVVS.Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Something changed in git in terms of file encoding.These files were created using this code:cmd = 'cd' localrep'/'zigirep ,    '&& git show' hcommit':'element ,    '>' filewhere localrep/zigirep, hcommit, element and file are all variables. This is what I have on my work system for this use case using git version 2.26.2-78 t IBM-1047 T=on -rw-rw-rw- 1 SPLBD SYS1 1875 Feb 1 05:03 CHGSTR But with git version 2.26.2-84 I get this: t ISO8859-1 T=on -rw-rw-rw- 1 LBDYCK ZOWEDEV 1875 Feb 1 08:06 CHGSTRTo summarize this - with git 2.26.2-27 the git show generated file is tagged as IBM-1047 and then with git 2.26.2-84 it is now tagged as ISO8859-1.Why the change and how can I control it?
