Rocket MultiValue

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.

Would anyone know the setting to prevent the indent on labels as seen here? (if possible).  Thank you ------------------------------David KylesDirector of ITMDC Interior SolutionsGlendale Heights IL US------------------------------

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

I keep getting the following error when migrating my UniData application to SB 6.5.7 In /usr/ud/SB.DEFN/DM/_SB.DISP at line 173 can not access unopened file. File variable not used in file operation In /usr/ud/SB.DEFN/DM/_SB.DISP at line 173 Fatal error: WRITE error How do I deal with it? The file is there with the correct permissions but I am not sure what it is referencing at line 173 so I cannot update the respective VOC pointer------------------------------John FigloreRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

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.

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 have had a recent issue with QMRESTORE creating files with casing on. Once the restore is done, we are having trouble with cases of dictionary items, etc (coming from D3 environment). I delete the file then I do      create.file FRT.CHG NO.CASE copy the data and dictionaries from a temp file back into my newly created file, and all works as I would expect. Can I change a fie to be case insensitive without re-creating it. My master login in the QMSYS account has OPTION CREATE.FILE.NO.CASE This is QM ver 4.0.9------------------------------Jesse TilliaProman-ERP, Inc.West Seneca NY US------------------------------

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------------------------------

We currently have a large application written with Universe BASIC and Menus.  is there a way to set a global timeout value for user input?  This is an audit requirement.  ------------------------------Sandy BarrySenior ProgrammerRocket Software Forum Member------------------------------

Good morning everyone, We have an issue with a TRANSACTION COMMIT failing with a STATUS = 3. The Unibasic subroutine containing the TRANSACTION START/COMMIT code is called from the outside as a web service. This failure is intermittent.  What can cause the STATUS code = 3 ? Thank you in advance. André Guindon

It's been a while since I had a need to do this. Anyway, I have a process that runs through a file to move data to another system.  I like using the spooler for this since it makes it easy to verify the data. The secondary print will deal with some corresponding multi-values that can be too large to flatten out in the main print job.  Since both are running from the same file it would be nice to be able to print both reports at the same time.  My alternative is to build a sequential file for the 2nd report and copy it to the spooler. Any help with this would be appreciated. ------------------------------Mark Vander VeenIT ManagerUniversity of Chicago PressChicago IL US------------------------------

Right now my RESTful calls come back as Error 500 unable to connect during a dbpause.  If I turn on the serverdebug I can see in the logfile the message: dbpause is set, try logging in later (or something like that).  I see the same message from telnet logins. Is there a way to capture this message for my Web pages using RESTful calls via an AJAX call?------------------------------David GreenComputer ProgrammerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Is there an easy way to delete a command from my Unidata command stack, or do I have to end the session and remove it from what was saved under my user profile?------------------------------Shawn Waldieenterprise application developerRocket Forum Shared AccountLos Angeles CA US------------------------------

Currently this is timing out at 60 minutes. Where is this timeout set? Can it be adjusted? Thanks!------------------------------kathleen hambrickProgrammerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Greeting all! New to Universe so my apologies for the rookie question.  Is there any to determine when the last date/time a program was compiled and by whom?------------------------------Doc RuckelPart time programmerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

d3 all versions. To my knowledge, this has been around forever; but it has always been something I thought was totally inconsistent: File A and File B are related to each other. An attribute on File B is a mv. From File A I wish to use a dictionary item that returns that File B attribute; and so use a t-correlative such as:T(FILEB;X;;n)where n is the integer amc number of the attribute on File B I want. This works perfectly if n is single valued; but if n is multi-valued the result is all the values delimited by a <space>; not returned as a mv. Why? It strikes me this is entirely inconsistent with mv principles. Now, with that said; is there a way around this in a dictionary item [apart from doing a call subroutine] using F or A type syntax?

Hi everyone, We're currently evaluating Evoke by BlueFinity as a front-end solution for our MultiValue system and recently had a demo which looked quite promising. The plan is to move forward with it, but before we do, I wanted to check: Has anyone here had hands-on experience with Evoke or mv.NET in a production environment? Any feedback-positive or negative-regarding integration, performance, support, or limitations would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi, Is anybody aware or know if System Builder 5.1 (pre SB+ I know it's ancient) was ported for a Linux platform (for Unidata)? Thanks.------------------------------Rashid HoosenDeveloperInvestec Bank LimitedSandton ZA------------------------------

Forgive me if this has been asked before.  We're running an emulation called BluVista and we're thinking of slowly migrating to Accuterm or wIntegrate. I see in Accuterm , using some emulations that I should be able to get an answerback.  I wrote a sample program to send a CHAR(5) to trigger the answerback and when I run the program I do in fact see the answerback string displayed on the screen but I cannot figure out how to capture that string programmatically.  I've tried input, inputif, etc and I never see the string in the input buffer. Has anyone on here successfully used the answerback string in Accuterm?

Hi, Does anyone know if there's a function in "Universe Basic" to get the cursor position (row and column)? Thank you very much.

Hi all Is there a way tu call pip via RUNPY? Usually I do server maintenance and intallations via shell, like this SH-5.1$ /u2/uv/python/bin/python3 -m pip install some_module SH-5.1$ /u2/uv/python/bin/python3 -m pip freeze Of course, it the server is running on windows things are different, so I was wondering if there is some way to interface with pip using the Universe command line, and not the operative system shell. ------------------------------Héctor CortigueraQuiter Servicios Informaticos SL------------------------------
