I have reported this to support but wondered if a) anyone else has seen this issue, and b) warn those of you that may be unaware of it. The GETLIST or GETLISTV statement in QM Basic (not to be confused with GET-LIST from TCL) uses the syntax: GETLIST "LISTNAME" TO MY.LIST SETTING CNT ELSE whatever.... The SETTING CNT is what's broken here. Rather than return the count of items in LISTNAME it returns the count of the most recent active select list you may have had - even though it's no longer active. You can test this quite simply by writing a program such as: PRINT "Listname: ":INPUT LNAMEGETLIST LNAME TO MY.LIST SETTING CNT ELSE STOPCRT "Record Count: ":CNTFOR I = 1 TO CNT   CRT MY.LIST<I>NEXT I If you compile / catalog that, then create yourself a savelist with 1 or 2 items in it then log off. Log back in you will be in a new session that has never had an active select list. Run the program, give it your listname and instead of the expected "Record Count: 2" and showing you the

One reasonably common issue that arises, which can result in a multitude of different errors, relates to JCL comment continuations being overlooked. Take for example the following JCL that allocates ISPF panel and messages library concatenations ISPPLIB and ISPMLIB, respectively: Now look at the output created when the job is executed. First the JESJCL output file: And this in JESYSMSG: Note that: a) unlike all other datasets in the ISPPLIB and ISPMLIB concatenations, dataset CMNSUP.INTL.CMN830.PANELS is not preceded by a number in the JESJCL output. b) the JESYSMSG output file shows only one dataset being allocated and released under the ISPPLIB DD statement, unlike ISPMLIB which shows all three datasets being allocated/released. This behaviour occurs because the comment starting in column 55 of the first ISPPLIB DD statement continues into column 72, which is also non-blank. This acts as a comment continuation statement that effectively makes the following card a comment, too, reg

I was migrating to a new server running Rocky Linux 9.4 and everything is working good. D3 installed, Cups working, migrated all Linux users, etc. When using Putty SSH it all works. But when I try to connect via AccuTerm 8 Secure Shell SSH version: auto, I get: No supported signature scheme exists (SSH).  -   and when I click to view details it says. No supported SSH2 signature scheme exists. The list of supported signature schemes received from the remote host does not contain a scheme supported by the local machine. SSH_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_SIGN). Note: Accuterm's SSH2 implementation supports "ssh-dss'" and "ssh-rsa" signature schemes. ------------------------------Steve ShourdsVPPerfection Software IncNorth Palm Beach FL US------------------------------

Hello, I used the "open" and "close" instruction to connect on differents databases, changing the PathName of the connector $MQL. However, I want to verify if the connection is done on the correct database after open a new one, even if the $Status = 0. (I have cases where I put something wrong in the pathname, and $Status=0 however) Is there a Uniface instruction which can give me the pathname actually used?

Hi Unifacers, we can't figure why in SOME installation we have hundreds and hundreds of userver.log files in customer servers, created every day already tryed to add or remove putmesslogfile, add or remove ioprint, add ioprint=0.. if we specify a different putmesslogfile name in ASN we can see them correctly renamed but thet're still there.. if we don't specify a filename then we get those hundreds of userver (+ PID) .log anyone else/idea? thank you Simone------------------------------Simone PeccheninoLabinf Sistemi Srl IT------------------------------

I assume Git has been tested on a z/OS 3.1 system but I am having an issue with performing "git add ." and the only difference I can find is that I'm attempting to do it on a z/OS 3.1 system.

I have a script that we use to verify file integrity across a number of accounts using guide.  A couple things I'd like to add are warnings about file size for 32-bit files (which we can get from udt.errlog but we have no control over when things show up there) and to run guide_ndx on a file to validate indexes.  Also, because guide_ndx has to be run on individual files (it still has to run on individual files, right?) I need some way in Linux to know which files in an account are Unidata files and which files have indexes.   Are there any Linux utilities in Unidata 8 that could give me this kind of detail on a file without starting Unidata?

Hi.  I have an old version of unzip that I downloaded years ago.  I'm working with a file now and when trying to unzip it I get the error messages:Archive:  Bill.zip                                                      skipping: DT052024.txt            need PK compat. v4.5 (can do v2.1)    skipping: DM052024.txt            need PK compat. v4.5 (can do v2.1)I was hoping to download a newer version of unzip, but I'm having trouble understanding the miniconda process.  I do not have access to the internet from my z/OS lpars, so, is it possible to get a repo (or the unzip package) downloaded locally?thanks, Dan------------------------------Dan SmithCrc RepresentativeState Farm Insurance CompanyBloomington IL US------------------------------

I have a program that does a bunch of initial stuff, but at the end, writes a JSON (text) file to a UniData DIR file called JSON.ARCHIVE with a date-time stamp.  It then does a chmod on the new file, setting permissions to 666.  Finally, it selects all the records  (files) in JSON.ARCHIVE that are older than 35 days and deletes them, thus it is self-cleaning. For some reason, the writes and deletes have stopped working.  I do not get an error, and the delete counter increments, but when I LIST JSON.ARCHIVE, my new record is not there and the old ones were not deleted. Permissions on the Linux dir are drwxrwxrwx, and all the files within are -rw-rw-rw-. For argument's sake, we have three accounts: DEV, PILOT and LIVE.  The programs are all the same and had not been compiled since I rolled the programs out.  It still works in DEV but no longer in PILOT or LIVE.  To be sure, I re-compiled DEV - it still worked.  I copied the working program from DEV

Users can hit our MX Web 10.4.2 installation and have device names automatically assigned, but that's not the desired behavior since our host application makes extensive use of pre-configured device names. We know how to pass a DeviceName via a URL parm, but our users are resistant to saving a bookmark or typing the parm. I would like to let users click a button on our logon page to switch their device. I'm able to use the EmulatorConnect function to switch to their specified device but users don't want to do this every time they visit. We need to make their device "sticky" so it's remembered from session to session on that machine. <insert annoyed grumbling about users here> A browser's LocalStorage is accessible via JavaScript, and I thought that might be an option for making the device name sticky.  User hits our base URL and gets auto-assigned QPADEVxxxxxx User switches to their device via EmulatorConnect....say, MIKEPRT App writes DeviceName to LocalStorage All subsequent

Is there any configuration in Unidata that can be adjusted for when a file starts emitting these messages into the udt.errlog?  Seems I've seen this start to appear at different times, but I've never seen a configuration option for it.

Hi allSo, we're on Linux 10.x and it's great - HOWEVER: Is there a way we can tell the update processor to flash compile (as opposed to just compile) code?Generally, one would exit and compile using Ctl XCJust asking My client is still using System Builder 5.1 (don't laugh) and there is an option to call a program in the dictionary (correlative field):CALL MYPROGRAMThe interesting this is that this still functions (calling the program etc) but it takes a LOOOONG time to run.If one does a 'list filname mydictvar' then it's OK speed; however select filename mydictvar - takes forever!Any clues? One last point - has anyone out there got the System Builder source code? If so, I'd really like to connect with you.

I am stepping through code and to avoid long subroutine calls, I do a  "BLnnnn"  in the BASIC Debugger where nnnn is a line after the subroutine call I want to 'blip through' -- more often than not now, the BL command is met with a minidump: I have altered the code a little to avoid anything proprietary -- but this is the gist... I did not want to step into the subroutine at line 1031. SO ... I reasonably put in BL1032 which should catch me right after the routine comes back: But instead..... .L [1024]        SOMETHING<2>    = COMPANY.NO:@VM:INVOICE.NO [1025]        SOMETHING<2,-1> = INTERNAL.USER.ID:@VM:"":@VM:"1" [1026]        SOMETHING<8> = BATCH.NO ; SOMETHING<9> = "POST" (1027)        IF DEBUG.FLAG THEN [1028]          IF ( DO.A.DEBUG ) THEN SOMETHING<1,-1> = "$VDEBUG" [1029]          PRINT "Calling routine to DETERMINE.OUTPUT.DEVICE ..."

Hi I have a script that connects to my Unidata database and executes some commands. The script was working ok with UOPY 1.3.0 and Python 3.8. I just updated to Python 3.12, and I cannot connect anymore. I keep getting Error [81009] : The RPC failed I started to trace back, and I found the following: Python 3.8 -> Works Python 3.9 -> Works Python 3.10 -> Not Working Python 3.11 -> Not Working Python 3.12 -> Not Working I couldn't find the official version of Python that UOPY supports, so I wondered if 3.9 is the one. Any ideas?  Regards

Attached you'll see two jpgs of the same file generated by my software using D3 Linux 10.3 and Accuterm 7. The bottom file was received by the Thunderbird email client. The top file was received by the Yahoo email client. The Thunderbird client and another MS product have also received the files as Chinese characters. The actual file that my software generates and then emails in the body of the email is the Yahoo file. Why, pray tell,  is this happening and ONLY with this customer's system? None of my other customers are having this problem.

I've been setting up a new machine using Universe 11 and Centos 7 as the host OS and AccuTerm 7.3.2034.0. The Universe programs are all working but I've been having trouble with WED.  When I try to edit certain files it just locks up. The WED editor displays but with nothing open. If I click on it i get "A request to the MultiValue database server is pending....  Clicking on OK just re-displays the message.  The only way out is to click on the cancel button on the Server Mode status window. Once I click on that WED shows a message "The requested operation could not be completed: server not running".  I can click on that and WED goes away but the AccuTerm session is locked up. If I reset the terminal I can get back to TCL. I've tried everything I can think of to  fix it: I've checked all the terminal and stty settings.  I've tried installing older versions of AccuTerm I've tried to re-install the host programs, (That no longer works) I've tried moving the

HiI'm putting a short question here before addressing license management.I tried to update my "Uniface 10.4.02.021 Distribution". As the newest distribution complained about my license, I tried some older distributions.It looks that I'm able to update to "Uniface 10.4.02.024 Distribution", but after that it starts to complain about the license.Has someone else noticed this? Is this something that will often happen, ie. the license has to be updated within the same Uniface version (eg. 10.4.02) ?
