Hi We are migrating from Uniface 9 to Uniface 10.4.02. We have some web services that have worked fine in Uniface 9, but fail in Uniface 10. I wrote the original web services following a Uniface blog article some years ago, along the lines of "How to implement a web service with a Dynamic Server Page". The problem in Uniface 10 is that GET requests work fine, but POST requests fail before getting near the DSP. I eventually discovered that the POST request was being denied by the USYSHTTP component. A simple workaround for this was to simply convert my DSP to a USP, and then everything works fine. So my question is, is this expected behaviour in Uniface 10? Was I wrong to assume it would work in Uniface 9  (it did work)?  I'm happy to be told that POSTing to a DSP makes no sense, if that's the case. I'm just trying to understand. Thanks very much.

Older D3 system running 10.2 Linux. After I loaded the latest patch, they started having System Halts, so I put them back to the original version of 10.2 However, when I recompiled all their BASIC programs, they came up with "0 frames used" for each one. What does this mean and how do I fix it. Their system is up and running, so I'm confused. Thanks. Fixed. Never mind. ------------------------------Richard GinsburgPresidentGinsburg ConsultingLeesburg VA US------------------------------

Hi,I have a scenario, where I have config.json file in my resource folder and on load of the project , it must read the file and check the flag inside that. If the flag is true then the project should access only the JavaScript function on all the pages and if it is false then it must call only the VB Script function on all the pages. Can anyone provide a solution for this?Below is the sample config.json file , I added for your reference Note: "TRUE" for JavaScript function call and "FALSE" for VB Script function call { "functionKeysLoad"  : true, "optionsSelect": false }

Hi, I have a routine that takes a data value, and then tries to determine what data type should be used when interfacing with other products (Excel in this case). The process I use is to (a) see if it is a number; then (b) ICONV the data value with various masks to see what is recognised. When I came to test standard QM format masks, I found that these got recognised as TIME values ... which I found surprising. For example: ICONV('8R', 'MT')  returns 28800  (8 hours)ICONV('8L', 'MT') returns 28800ICONV('8C', 'MT') returns 28800ICONV('12*R', 'MT') returns 43200 (12 hours)ICONV('12*R26', 'MT') returns 43226 (12 hours and 26 seconds) I question whether these are sensible return values for a time conversion. I could understand '8H' being returned as 28800, but not '8R', '8L', or '8C', and certainly not something like '12*R26'. i don't look at any of those values and think - that is a TIME value! Can someone from Rocket comment on this? QM 4.0.9 / Windows. Testing on QM 4.0.7 / Windows give

I have this old memory that there is a way to install a subroutine or some program in SB+ 5.x that will allow passwords to be evaluated for length, content, complexity, etc.  I can't find any reference to it in any of the documentation; does anyone remember this or is this a faulty memory?

hi everybody. A strange behavior we do not understand. on a UV/windows / 11.3.5 we have python 3.11  (the one within uv/python - no other python is installed on the machine)  We  use module 'pandas'  in our script, release 2.2.2 is installed.  When executed from osshell, no problem : dos /c "python path/script.py"  When executed from uv/python, from pyCallFunction() or from TCL >PYTHON then import pandas we get this  DLL load failed while importing aggregations: The specified module could not be found.we do not understand what's wrong with the deploy.... What is the difference between a osshelled python call and a uv's python's one ? any idea ?  Many thanks for any advice  Manu

Hello, Accuterm 7.3.  This is probably a Windows 10 Pro (on a VM accessed via RDP) issue but it involves running Accuterm scripts.  This is Linux D3 via SSH. I have an scott.atsc file that does the D3 Linux login/logon for me and starts my scott.atcf session. When I double-click on that directly, all is good.... works from the desktop short-cut, and also from "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Atwin71\\scott.atcf", and from "Scott Ballinger > Documents > scott.atsc"  (I copied the .atcf and .atsc files from "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Atwin71\\" to "Scott Ballinger > Documents", although who knows where the "Desktop" or "Documents" folders actually are in the Windows "one-drive" universe (as in internet file-space, not UV)  anyway? So I dragged-and-dropped the desktop shortcut to the task bar and "pinned" it there. Now when I right-click on the taskbar AT icon I get a list of all the .atsc and atcf files I have ever touched.  If I pick the one on top (scott.atsc)  or the "recent" one, ev

Hello, I noticed, that since a few days ago, the ZMF Plugin for Zowe, doesn't let me complete "put" requests, like zowe zmf freeze pkg -p "BK# 014585.  This gives me following error message in the Console: PS C:\\Users\\ris0186> zowe zmf freeze pkg -p "BK# 014585"Command Error:The put request appeared to succeed, but the response was not in the expected format:Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0Error Details:Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0PS C:\\Users\\ris0186> I tried the Freeze command with the REST SERVICE site, there it works flawlessly. But if I take the URL and try to call it with Python and the import Requests (did work for me previously) I get the same error.I also tried the Promote command, but same result. If I execute a "GET" request it works. E.g. zowe zmf get ps -p 'BK# *' --cr 'UBRAF' --ds 'Y' --fs 'Y'. I looked in the Logs, but didn't find a lot: [2024/07/04 08:57:57.520] [ERROR] [CommandProcessor.js:943] Handler for packa

Hi all, In order to estimate the effort required to upgrade my customer's Uniface 7 & 8 applications to Uniface 10.4 , I'd like to ask your feedback on the number of person months that was required in order to upgrade your application to a major Uniface versions. For this purpose I've created a Google Forms poll in which you can enter the number of person months (0-3,4-6,7-9,10-12,13+) that were required to upgrade your application to a major Uniface version  (Uniface 9->10 , 8->9  ,  7->8 ). If you have directly migrated an application two or more Uniface major versions in one pass please share your experience. Please click here to participate in the poll. You are also welcome to enter your feedback as a response to this post if you find that more convenient. Thank you for your feedback!

Hi FreaksCurrently two developers are programmin on the same server by "remote desktop".The UnifAce-environment is the same but I do have have different shorcuts to IDE.EXE for them.I create  different ASN and INI*) files for both so that $user=a_name and IDE_STATE_a_name.zip are neatly separatedBut if the debugger is about to start, UnifAce always use UDB.CNF as the config file.Okay, I can modify UDBG.ASN to use another UDBG_a_name.CNF but this is only half the way.But I do not have any chance to tell IDE.EXE to call UDBG.EXE  with a modified commandline.So any idea to name the UDBG.CNF depending on the current user?Ingo PS *) is there any way to use a #FILE in a INI-File? I have to duplicate the whole INI-file and can not redirect to a common core of stettings------------------------------Ingo StillerAareon Deutschland GmbH------------------------------
