Good Day Fellow Members! I have an interesting issue with the "LOGTO" SB+ command.   I am trying to allow a specific Security Group to have access to our TRN.DATA account.  (Our "TRN.DATA" is a our "sandbox" account to allow our power user(s) to test new processes and/or experimenting with setting up our business needs.) Currently, when I ask the user to perform a "/LOGTO TRN.DATA" , they get "TRN.DATA ACCESS DENIED".   (I have added an attachment on what the users are seeing.)    I have tried to add the account to the Security Group through the SB+ Security Group Maintenance, but the updated data is not being saved to the Security Group record. I did ask our Unix administrator to check the permissions and our admin did make adjustment to all user to access the account.  However, this did not resolve the issue. So, my question to the group is what I am missing?  What do I need to look at or investigate? Any suggestions and feedback will be welcomed. Thank you for your time and consider

Greetings!I'm not sure if I can explain this one very well, but I am going to try. We are running UniVerse 11.3.5 on AIX 7.2.  We noticed some oddities when writing to a Type 19 file.At the AIX level, the ownership of the Type 19 file (parent directory) is root, and the group ownership is a group called installs.  UV runs as root. User xyz (group staff) runs a process that writes to the Type 19 file.  If I monitor the contents of the folder at the Unix level with an "ls -l" command, and my timing is perfect, I will see that the UV record (Unix file) first gets created as a 0-byte file with xyz as the owner and staff as the group.  UV then finishes writing the file and at that time the owner is now root with a group of installs.This all happens in milliseconds, so trying to capture it 'at will' is nearly impossible.  I just keep running ls command repeatedly until I see it. I've never noticed this before, but I've never looked before either.  I'm looking now because we have another pro

Hello all - I'm sure this has been asked before but I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for... We are moving our Unidata 8.2 from Unix to Linux. I have been through such a conversion before some 15 years ago but thought others might have more recent recollection and encountered other issues. Is there a list of specific potential pitfalls to check?  Obviously the syntax of Unix commands changes to linux. Spoolers, FTP, emails, etc but what about any Unidata changes? I remember issues with the locate command... did others have that issue also? What other issues did you all find? Thank you in advance for your time, consideration, and assistance.

Hello everyone, In a DSP (10.4.02 version), we were able to use voice dictation through the "SpeechRecognition" interface, which is functional on Google Chrome.  We would like to use this same voice dictation in a form. Despite the Uniface HTML widget using Chorium, this interface does not work. Have you ever had a need for dictation in a form, and do you have a solution? Thanks.------------------------------Jérémie CEDOLINProges PlusWillems FR------------------------------

I have just loaded python3.13 and flask onto my rocky 9.5 system.  The system already has python3.9 as part of the rocky linux.  I have just installed idle3 wanting to use it to work with python3.13 and flask but find that it connects only to 3.9 where I do not have flask.  Does anyone know a way to either modify idle to connect to my 3.13 version or is there any way to get the "dnf install" to load it into my 3.13 directory structure?  I prefer to use idle instead of the plain 'ol text editor. Thanks, Dale

Using vc_build_tools_dockerfiles_10.0_windows_pu04 we build and license the docker container. When the container is run in 'process isolation' where  can see the java process from the license daemon running using task manager on the host.These containers use a mounted volume.We run multiple  Visual COBOPL compile containers. The host machine is Windows Server 2022 datacenter.Today ALL our COBOL  containers are failing and it seems to be due to the java process. The contains start and perhaps you start to compile a few times, then it sems the java process from the autopass daemon consumes such high CPU that the containers fail.Remember this is process isolation. We  can't run hyper-v because the host doesn't support nested hyper-v.If we quickly kill the java process we can exec into the container to do some exploratory work, but the question is what are we looking for?We  even stopped all containers, removed all the images and rebuilt them all, but we get the same behaviour. No updates

How do I construct a Resources .rc (or otherwise) file to add to a Visual COBOL project to populate the Details tab on a .EXE/.DLL Properties? I would like to be able specify Copyright, Product name, Product version, and File description.

Hi, I'm new on Unidata. Right now our company is using Manage 2000 with Unidata RDBMS 8.2 version. My question is, is it possible to open my unidata database to SQL Server Management Studio, how? If it's not possible can I create a view on SQL Server Management Studio containing all the data from my unidata database, how? I already created a view file and successfully compiled it but I can't still see it on the SQL Server Management Studio. I also created a link server on SQL Server Management Studio using the U2 ODBC.

Hello, I've inherited a project where I am to upgrade the Micro Focus compiler from version 4.0.38 to version 10 at my company. I've installed the Build Tools because we want to continue to use the command line only setup for a while longer (we have lots of batch files that drive our process) and I've started recompiling with the new compiler. However, I realize now there are no cfg files created with this version. I've searched, or so I think, the documentation and can not pinpoint how to handle the lack of cfg files. I'm primarily a help desk jockey and cloud administrator here, so any guidance here would be great appreciated. TIA. ------------------------------Jeff------------------------------

I'm in a situation where I am looking to use the Zena Flow construct, i.e.   I've never used it before and am trying to figure out how it works. The scenario is that in a previous task, I procure a variable, [TASK.VARIABLE.gl_parse] which is passed on to subsequent tasks.  I then want to call certain tasks that call certain APIs in the subsequent tasks, depending on the value in [TASK.VARIABLE.gl_parse]. I believe the Flow Construct would be the route to go here.  But what would the coding look like?  I gather it is in the Value section of the Flow Construct: But how would it work here?  I'm thinking check the value of [TASK.VARIABLE.gl_parse], and then would need to call the corresponding API task.  But how would that work exactly?  Assume there are REST Web Services defined, and they are to be called depending on the value stored in [TASK.VARIABLE.gl_parse]. ------------------------------Scott LackeyRocket Software Forum Member------------------------------

Greetings Fellow Members! My co-worker and I have a issue with SB+ that we are banging our heads because we cannot find a solution. Below is a snapshot of the problem   As you can see,  our "PTEXT" is not getting opened, here.  However,  this is happening with other files, like our "HELP" and "DEFN" files.     Almost all of are users are using GUI, but this has popped up with one or two users who use the Character mode.  To make this more interesting, the following could happen:  This doesn't happen all the time.  When the user clicks on the "Continue" button (Sometimes they have to hit the "Continue" button multiple times), the error message eventually goes away.      Lock up their session and need to kick the user out. I have checked the VOC pointers and they are correctly pointing to the correct data files and dictionaries.  We believe it is coming from our SB+ interface and/or other processes.  &nb

I just bought a copy of OpenQM to test some of my applications.  My first program to test is a main menu.  In this MVBASIC program I draw a character outline around the border of the screen, the fill in the menu options.  The program then calls a suproutine called XPRMT.  I use the XPRMT subroutine for all keyboard input in all programs, it is the only INPUT statement in my systems.  One of the parameters that I pass to XPRMT is PSTR which is the prompt string which XPRMT prints at @(0,24), the bottom of the screen.  In UniVerse this routine works perfectly, but in OpenQM it was displaying the PSTR value over the bottom line of the border which is row 23.  My last line printed in the menu program was the log off selection at row 22.  After much code changing in XPRMT, I modified the menu program to display the menu selections first and the draw the border and that presented everything properly.  What I see is that even though the XPRMT instruction is "PRINT@(0,24):PSTR;", PSTR is being

We are using this utility to move some Universe data to QM. Works good. This utility makes us select the files to move, and we now have a list of data files to move. we would like to automate this so, that I could call a program and somehow move like 8 or 10 files, instead of manually selecting the files. I could put it our phantom and refresh the files every night until we get fully migrated to our system.------------------------------Jesse TilliaProman-ERP, Inc.West Seneca NY US------------------------------

Rocket Zena and Enterprise Orchestrator (EO) has a RESTful API interface that allows you to interact with the system programmatically. This means you can integrate Zena and EO with other applications, automate tasks, and access data in a flexible and efficient way. If you’re looking for RESTful API documentation, login to your Zena or Enterprise Orchestrator instance, in the top right-hand corner you’ll see the menu option (as shown below) If there’s any out-of-the-box integrations you’d like to see in the future, comment them below.------------------------------Olivia SultanovSolution Marketing ManagerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

I am wanting to update the positions of fields on a form multiple times a second as if they are being animated. I'm struggling to find a way to do this. I tried using sleep in a while loop but it causes the UI to hang.Looking around, the UTimer or some kind of periodic messaging to run triggers may work, but I don't know how to use those things.  Any thoughts? ------------------------------R TEmporerRocket Software Forum Member------------------------------
