Is there a Telnet setting in Microsoft’s standard Telnet program that will recognize the column and row positioning from a D3 basic program, along with clear screen “PRINT @(-1)” etc.It all works with ACCUTERM emulating a Viewpoint terminal, but I have not been able to find a setting that works with Microsoft’s Telnet.  Is address locations possible in standard Telnet?

In D3 using Telnet how do you send a <Ctrl>-Break when your keyboard doesn’t have a Break key?Using ACCUTERM how do you send a <Ctrl>-break when your keyboard doesn’t have a break key?

How can you call up NOTEPAD from within D3 on a Windows 11 machine?I tried…EXECUTE “!NOTEPAD”The program seems to try to shell out, but it doesn’t call up notepad.I’m coming from mvBase and have shelled out to NOTEPAD from there extensively.

Need an applicacion with command line ability to send text messages

Hello,I am using the MVSP utility from D3 version 9.2. This is the second time that I have encountered a new error message. What could be causing this? Could it be related to the VME workspace? It is currently at 55%. Could it be linked to the server memory, which did not appear to be saturated?After this message appeared, the D3 database stopped responding, and it was no longer possible to connect via Telnet.Message received from the TIGR.MVSP program:System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): An operation on a socket could not be performed because the system did not have enough buffer space or because the queue was full 127.0.0.1:9000 at System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient..ctor(String hostname, Int32 port) at TIGR.MVSP.Pick.ConnectCore(String hostName, Int32 hostPort, String userName, String userPassword, Boolean sslConnect, Boolean licEnterprise)Have other D3 users encountered this type of issue? Any information that could help guide me toward resolving this problem would be appreci

I am looking for a way to differentiate a record create (or insert if you will) from a record update within a trigger.  I am not seeing anything that would allow me to do this easily.   My use case is to send out an event on a record create and a different event on a record update.  I want this to happen only after a successful write.I can see on a pre-write how I could see if the record exists already or not, but then if the write should fail, I would have sent an event for the create or the update that is out of sync with the state of my database.  I would like to avoid having 2 events sent on a create (one pre-write detecting a create and one post-write for an update).It would seem to be an important piece of metadata that should be available to the trigger as to whether or not this record had to (or will) be created by the write.Has anyone else already come up with an elegant solution or can point out the obvious thing I am missing?

We have been trying to standardise our jbase environment across accounts.  But we are experiencing a problem with loosing the C:\jbase\6.2.1.1\bin assignment and therefore can not use the base jbase programs like LIST.THIS IS QUITE A PROBLEM !WE have placed the statement in the OBJECTLIST in the system environment variables for the administrator and the account login.We have placed in into the OBJECTLIST in every remote.cmd we can find.when we restart the services we then log in on the server as administrator or as the account and start a jshell.Things look good and the OBJECTLIST is as we expect when we use jdiag - all great BUT as soon as we login to a real jbase Account we loose the OBJECTLIST for c:\jase\6.2.1.1 and are simply lefty with the local account BIN and LIB can anyone help please !at the moment it would appear that dialing in as a dumb screen on telnet works ok via the remote.cmdMany thanks  :) 

We have a client that just installed Accuterm 8.0.1015 on both a Windows 11 23H2 OS and a Windows 11 24H2 OS and it appears they have done so correctly. However, when they open Accuterm the icons below the menu are simply showing up as empty blocks but the tooltips do work. Is this a setting or a compatibility issue. 

Hi there, Hope you can help :) We are currently running a (very) old version of jBase 3.4 and are experimenting on a test server to migrate our accounts to jBase 6.2.  Could anyone point me in the direction of some documentation for what we would have to do to upgrade our accounts assuming we have jBase 6.2 installed and working on the new server? Many thanks Mike Lankester

All,Currently we are extracting out JSON data character by character and saving the data in d3.  That works fine for small records.  But, now we are looking at converting a record with the size of 3,147,865.  Character by character manipulation of a string is very cumbersome.   Is there a JSON to d3 program out there that could handle this or does someone have any ideas?Ted Hurlbut

Hi there.Hope you can help!I am trying to setup the profile so that when the user click clone on a tab it will autologin. I have tried recording a macro and then replaying the macro but this just opens a new window without connecting the terminal or logging in.If I go to script editor and press play it works as intended but I need this to work by right clicking the tab and cloning with an autologin. I am running AccuTerm 8.1 standard. Any help much appreciated!!Thanks

 Accuterm seems to allow greater that 31 days in a month for date fields !! Traits for a form - if we select return will wok in a multi line text box - we seem to just complete the form - not stay in the multi line box anybody seen these problems and are there answers ?

Hello,I want to retrieve parameters of my command tcl in a proc.How can you this ?For example :I execute a proc named PROC01 with parameters.I want to know the parameters to use inside the proc.  A proc :PROC01001 PQ002 HSET-DEVICE003 <how to use parameters line command ?>004 PH005 ...  And execute this in prompt :: PROC01 6 In Basic programs, you can use tclread. But, with proc, how to do this ?  Thanks for your response, 

I recently was part of a discussion regarding the use of parenthesis with a SELECT statement. My understanding was that parenthesis were not evaluated with respect to AND and OR logic. Is that correct? Looking in the online documentation, the only mention (that I could find) regarding parenthesis use was in relation to OPTIONS. Specifically the the open parenthesis indicated the beginning of an OPTIONS clause and that a close parenthesis could be used to end the clause and that the OPTIONS clause should always be at the end of the statement. If that is the only allowed use for parenthesis then: Why are parenthesis allowed to be used at all in a SELECT statement as follows:SELECT FILE WITH 1 EQ "ABC" AND ( WITH 2 EQ "123" OR WITH 3 EQ "XYZ" )This command executes without an error? Using a file with the following records: TEST..... A1....... A2... 100        A         1200        A         2300    

I inherited an old MVBase system running on windows.  I tried SH and CMD and cannot shell out.  Is this possible?  Also, I would like to make a file pointer to a directory in windows.  Is this possible?  I found that I can use a UOPEN to open an os file and write to a file.

We have a client requirement to add a QR code to the header of tally slip prints, which are printed directly from D3. Has anyone been able to achieve this?

Hello everyone, i'am updating my server hardwarei'm going to have 256 GB , processor 40 cores, i have 128 users, and my D3 base current has 293 GBthis is my current pick0, what settings i should change for the new configuration D3 10.2 Linux name LINUX pick0nice 0user pickcore 77165824 10npibs 700nphts 120basic 0brkchr 00escchr 1babsbase 18abssize 708abslock onblkfid 4flush 10dwqnum 256clocal offrawdisk onflushers 4

i have FCService running ok on our almalinux 9.4 server, but i notice its binding to 0.0.0.0 which i'm sure is ideal when your D3 & Flashconnect are running on separate hardware. in our case they're on the same physical box, so i'd prefer if I could get FCService to bind to 127.0.0.1 instead. (like TLLicMgr does) is this possible? can i use something like a bind: command in flashconnect.conf? or maybe the port statement, instead of port 1505 would port 127.0.0.1:1505 work? thanks in advance!

back with another question, hopefully this is the last one! when we downloaded d3 linux 10.3.4 there were also three patch files available, 17, 18, & 19 is this a situation where patch 19 contains all the updates from prior ones? or is each patch its own standalone fix? basically what i'm asking is, do we have to apply every patch individually & in order? or can we just apply patch 19 and ignore the prior two? thanks in advance!

i'm working on a fresh install of almalinux 9.4 and d3 10.3.4, setting up a new box that we plan to migrate a much older d3 install onto within the next month or so. i don't have a ton of experience with alma (or centos7 which the old box is running, or any other rhel variants), so i'm kind of figuring my way through as i go. anyways the problem i've run into now is TLLicMgr is failing to start on its own, and i tracked it down to systemctl reporting that rslm has failed.  here's the error message i get when i do systemctl status rslm.service systemd[1]: Starting Rocket Software License Manager... TLLicMgr[1904]: Unable to create pipe</usr/lib/pick/.LS.NP3><17> TLLicMgr[1905]: Log file is not open TLLicMgr[1905]: Failed to Create File: Permission denied TLLicMgr[1905]: Failed to initialize.

Is there a .Net Core / .Net 6 compatible MVSP Client API?  If not, is there any planes to support this?I have tried using API version 2.1 for .Net Framework 4.5 in a .Net 6 core application and get the following runtime error.Exception:The type initializer for 'rocketsoftware.MVSP.TIGRCommmon' threw an exception.Inner Exception:Could not load type 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.ApplicationServices.User' from assembly 'Microsoft.VisualBasic, Version=10.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'..Net Framework DLLs can be loaded into .Net 6 as long as the DLL’s referenced assemblies has a compatible .Net Core equivalent, 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.ApplicationServices.User'  was not ported to .Net Core.Thanks, Bill

Hi All,  This is embarrassing (but not)Please help me here, I need to mount (such that tI may issue a t-select verb in D3) a new tape which is NOT included in the Pick0 file.I know this is doable but I forget the TCL command that does this.I'm on D3 Linux (Redhat) V 10.3 xBTW - I've Googled "Rocket D3 Linux mounting a new tape device" but I really haven't seen a proper answer.As I said - I've seen this before but I have a brain freeze right now :(Stefano

Hi, can someone help me?   I have 2 D3 windows servers with the same version.  I used to have a super q-pointer on the second server pointing to an account on the first server.  The q-pointer was deleted when i freed up vme space.  I can't remember the format needed for the super q-pointer.  I also can't find the document that i previously read to setup this.   Thanks!

The documentation states pretty plainly that dimensioned arrays declared as a common variable must be a static size. Is there a technique or pattern that anyone has discovered to get around this?  I want to resize my common arrays as needed, but I'm at a loss how I can make this work. Is it possible?

Hi AllI've been baffled by this, but I will regard the instance as possible serendipity!By chance (and a good measure of trust) I copied the original load of D3 of the Pick0 file into my home directory (in Linux)This Pick0 would only have 16 ports etcI then proceed to amend the number of ports to a greater number. The manual for 10.3 states to reload D3 - which I did :) I now discover that starting D3 from my home directory takes THAT entry (of Pick0) rather than the true entry in /usr/lib/pick!!!!I guess this "could be great" in a development environment when you wish to have a minimum number of pibs, but it is rather confusing when it doesn't take what you amended in as the /usr/lib/pick/pick0 entry.So, tip - launch D3 from /usr/lib/pickRocket - please be aware of this - unless otherwise.Also, can anyone give me a reason why Linux kills D3 processes? Especially when I do a backup/restore or even a re-index. Is it swap space? memory?Thanks Stefano
