I wondering what others do for pessimistic locking strategies. D3's normal READU will lock a record for that PIB, and that execute level, which is good, and it is the behavior all D3 Basic programs probably use.  My character based apps allow a user to "push" a level, so if you were in a customer maintenance screen,  for example, the customer record ABCD would be locked, and if you pushed a level in that screen  and used a menu selection to open a new customer maintenance screen and tried to edit ABCD, it would locked via the normal READU behavior. This would work the same if some other user on another PIB had  ABCD locked.  With  a Java Swing app using MVSP, because it's a GUI, I can have multiple windows opened at the same time, so I could have 2 (or 200)  customer maintenance screens open and clearly don't want to edit the same record on more than one screen.  If I used one D3 connection per open window, I'd pretty soon run out of user licences, so I'm only using one D3 connection f

Ran into a problem on an Azure RHEL 9 instance where D3_setup could not execute anything out of the /tmp directory resulting in a failed install (/usr/bin/d3 missing, etc.). If you run into this, do the following as root: mount -o remount,suid,exec /tmp You should also alter the /etc/fstab to make this permanent after a Linux reboot. Find this:/dev/mapper/rootvg-tmplv   /tmp   xfs  defaults,rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,relatime  0 0 change this part:nosuid,noexec to this:suid resulting in this:/dev/mapper/rootvg-tmplv   /tmp   xfs  defaults,rw,suid,nodev,relatime  0 0 While not related to D3 installation, it might be a good idea to make the same changes for the /home directory so that you can execute out of the /home directory as well. To do that, change this line in /etc/fstab as well: Before:/dev/mapper/rootvg-homelv  /home  xfs  defaults,rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,relatime  0 0After:/dev/mapper/rootvg-homelv  /home  xfs  defaults,rw,suid,nodev,relatime  0 0 The mount would look like this:moun

A quick question from an mvBase user. Is there any way to get past the page width limitation of 132 characters as imposed by mvTerm? Is there an alternative terminal emulator that works with mvBase that could be used that does not have this limitation?

Currently, running 34 jobs in scheduler.  Recently, the scheduler stopped running on 7/21/2024 and started backup on its own on 7/31/2024. Any idea why this would happen?  Are there any updates to address this?

Hi all,   Is it possible in AccuTerm to call another project from a command button in a different project. I have developed a Customer Maintenance Project with 5 screens and a Customer Enquiry Project with 7 screens. But my customer has now asked to be able to Call the Maintenance Project while in the middle of an Enquiry when they have noticed a problem that need updating, i.e.  wrong phone number.    can this be done or do I need to redevelop my whole maintenance again inside the Enquiry. I have tried several things but nothing works as I had hopped Can ANY ONE help by pointing the way please   haha------------------------------Chris BaxterMDCB SoftIPSWICH GB------------------------------

I am indexing a 21,000,000 record file on the invoice date.  It is a single value field, and when I build the index it works correctly based on the records in the file at the time of the build.  After that, new records or changed records are NOT added to the index. Is there a setting related to indexing that must be set to auto update the index? I have read all the UniData documentation on indexing that I can find. I have been using indexes in other versions of Pick for decades and this is the first time I have hit this problem.------------------------------Bob LislePresidentInformation Technology SystemsDallas TX US------------------------------

We have a multi-valued field that is being exploded for a sort. The dictionary item calls a program to convert the value. When we were on D3, this worked correctly. When we moved to Jbase, the sort failed. It seems to only sort on the first multi-value of each record selected. The program call was originally in <8> of the dict item. Another developer moved it to <7> after the issue was discovered. That worked fine for a while as the order of the original format sorted very close to the sort of the updated format. However, additional changes have been made that now make it obviously incorrect. <8> is the proper location for this call. The subroutine being called does use a few ACCESS references. At first I thought it might be something there, but it does do the conversion correctly. So the outputted data is correct with its format, but the sort result is wrong. Stumped.------------------------------Chris RazzanoSenior PICK programmerHouston's Inc-----------------------

I noticed that when I executed two select statements in a basic program, the 2nd one does NOT utilize the results from the first one: CMD1='SELECT FILE WITH ATTR1 EQ "Y"'' EXECUTE CMD1 CMD2-'SORT FILE F1 F2 F3 F4' EXECUTE CMD2 But, if I combine them it works: MULTI.CMD=CMD1:@AM:CMD2 EXECUTE MULTI.CMD Problem: is there a way to keep the 2nd command from running if the CMD1 finds 0 records? ------------------------------Nelson SchrothpresidentC3CompleteShop LLCHarrison OH US------------------------------

Hi Guys, According to the manual the D3 -d command  -d data.arg Stacks data for the process once it is activated. The data argument specified is any string that contains displayable characters and commands prefixed by a backslash. The D3 implementation is Linux (Redhat) 10.3x I run this code in Linux and I can see the entries in the TCL stacker: Please just ignore the commented out lines.  RESCMD = "!d3 -500 -d -' \\r\\r\\r\\rdm\\rdm\\rxxxxxx\\r"       RESCMD = RESCMD:"\\rt-det 5 (uz\\rt-select 5\\rt-rew\\rt-rew\\r" *      RESCMD = RESCMD:"\\rlistfiles \\r"       RESCMD = RESCMD:"\\r\\r\\rt-det\\r\\rsleep 1\\r\\rexit\\r\\r'"       EXECUTE RESCMD * *      DELCMD = "!d3 -500 -d -' \\r\\r\\r\\rdm\\rdm\\rdxxxxxx\\r" *      DELCMD = DELCMD:"\\r\\r\\rt-det\\r\\rtime\\r\\rexit\\r\\r'" *      execute delcmd * *      execute delcmd * *      RESCMD = "!d3 -500 -d -' \\r\\r\\r\\rdm\\rdm\\rdxxxxxx\\r" *      RESCMD = RESCMD:"\\rt-det 5 (uz\\rt-select 5\\rt-rew\\rt-rew\\r" *      RESCMD

hello, So, Universe >= r12 use the same lock system like Udt, I'm looking to deeply understand/tune it. For admin & troubleshooting, there is a tool uvglm_tool / glm_tool  and uvulc_tool / ulc_tool, but they are not documented or I do not found any docs about it nor in Unidata docs.    Is there anyone who have details about it ? How to read the info, use it ? Perhaps docs/pdf/ppt/whitepaper/KB/...  from U2University conferences in the past ?  I thank you by advance. ------------------------------Manu Fernandes------------------------------

Every time my [Windows 11 pro] PC is rebooted the "Unidata Database Service 8.2" and the "Unidata Telnet Service 8.2" are both Disabled and have to be re-enabled and then re-started via the Services window. It's funny but the "Uni RPC Service" is not affected. Probably unrelated, or perhaps a clue; When rebooting [the PC], all of my stored logon IDs are gone and have to be re-entered.------------------------------Kevin HondMr.Self RegisteredKingsport TN US------------------------------

We have a file that is used to find customers via a name & address formatted "matchcode".  This matchcode file has an index for customer number, as it has 38M entries.  For example: MATCHCODE:     4537100110WSTLM00000BSHT0001 599386130002 58926904 Often, there are more than one customer number (attributed) associated with a matchcode as shown in this example.  It seems that only <1> is indexed and not the others (.  Is this a function of how UniVerse indexes, or the dictionary value used or is it a function of how the index was created? >LIST-INDEX MATCHCODE ALL Alternate Key Index Summary for file MATCHCODE File...........

Hello, I am trying to integrate a webhook from a third party company in Universe 11.3 on IBM AIX.  The third party company asked for a URL to send their messages and I thought I would be able to build this through RESTful Web Services developer and a Unibasic subroutine.  I  setup an input parameter and hoped it would contain the return data, but that did not work and the parameter was not being populated. Is the RESTful Web Services the best tool for this?  If so, how can I parse the return message (below) in my Unibasic subroutine, so I can update my database?  If not, any tools/ideas you can recommend? Thanks, Larry ------------------------------Lawrence RizzoConsultantLJR Technology Consulting LLCEast Amherst NY US------------------------------

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 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

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

Just a heads up for anyone (like me !) who is not aware. Recent versions of D3 contain Accumath extended precision functions already loaded. I think in the distant past this package was an add-on, but now all the Basic callable functions are in dm,bp, or available directly as user exists. Using Accumath you can easily achieve the 15-16 digit precision of a Java double, or the higher precision of a BigDecimal. Seems to all work remarkable well.------------------------------Bryan Buchanan------------------------------

We're currently on UniVerse 12.1.1 and RHEL 7. As RHEL 7 is EOL - we'll need to upgrade to 8, and then update UniVerse to 12.2.1.2002 The team who will conduct the OS upgrade have asked if UniVerse will support a Leapp upgrade, and if UniVerse will support RHEL 8.6 specifically. Has anyone else been through this process? I only see mention of the major versions of RHEL in the support matrix, I'm assuming that it will work on 8.6 but it'd be great to get some confirmation!------------------------------Matthew WrightAnalystTomago Aluminium Co PTY Ltd.Tomago NSW AU------------------------------
