Problem:
We are getting the error "\\Micro was unexpected at this time" when using version 9.0.1 AcuXDBC batch files on 64-bit Windows.
Resolution:
The AcuXDBC installation includes eight batch files to assist in administering:
acuxdbcs.bat
addfile.bat
ainit.bat
asql.bat
axset.bat
demo.bat
genxconf.bat
odbcsql.bat
Invoking them on a Windows 64-bit machine results in the error:
"\\Micro was unexpected at this time"
The same .bat files all work as expected on 32-bit Windows.
Explanation/Resolution:
The batch files did not account for the fact that 64-bit Windows have parentheses in the path. Those parentheses cause problems for the DOS batch processor.
Attached to this article is a zip file containing modified batch files that work on 64-bit machines. Simply download and extract to the bin directory of your 9.0.1 installation. By default that is C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Micro Focus\\Acucbl901\\AcuGT\\bin.
The same applies to version 9.1.0. The fixed batch files will be included in version 9.1.1.
