Hi, In the same version of U2.Data.Client (3.1.1), the string data format I retrive from a database is different, by changing the library from .NET to .NET Framework, using the codepage 850. In this case, in the .NET Framework is correct and with .NET the "special" characters are not shown properly. I'm portuguese and the problem is in the accent words like á, é ç. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue? Best regards, Jose Baptista

We are running Unidata 8.3 on Windows Server 2022 & Azure Cloud Windows Server. We also operate Replication.

Been using basic Wintegrate for a long time. Now, I would like to construct some GUI screens but cannot locate the designer tool. Is is still out there? If so, where can I look? I've already scanned all of the manuals cannot find a reference as to where to find it (i.e. how to start it. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

We have a number of distributed files that are keyed off an internal date in the key. So, every year, we need to create new part files and update the @PART.ALGORITHM.  I think this year will push the count to over 80 part files across about a dozen distributed files. I've inherited the existing process, but I wanted to see what other folks are doing, or if there is an established "best practices" for adding new part files to a distributed file. We're running UV11.4.1 on RHEL8, if that makes a difference. v/r Ray------------------------------Raymond DeGennaroUV/D3 DBAUnitedHealth Group IncBelvidere IL US------------------------------

Hi all I'm trying to replicate some legacy code using uopy, but I've found an issue that's hard to solve. This is a LONG process, both server and local side, so timeouts may appear. Using the older UVIC32.dll code we can simply reconnect to a session after it has been closed by the server. But, after health_check returns false to uopy I can't reconnect to the server, and the connect() method is not connecting. Is there a way to do this?

Edit for posterity: Windows 11 runs Viaduct just fine. I'm not sure what went wrong on the first install, but after uninstalling and reinstalling it works. Have also installed on a second PC, which is also running fine. Our office uses Viaduct 2000 installed on Windows 10 to access the D3 instance on the server. I know there's newer and better emulators out there but it's always worked for us and we've never had a need to for anything else. With W10 support coming to an end and needing to upgrade to Windows 11, I tried installing Viaduct on a PC with Windows 11. It installed fine, but when I try to open it, it just has an error message.  My question is, are any of you running Viaduct on Windows 11? I'd like to hear that it's possible before spending a bunch of time trying to troubleshoot my issue. ------------------------------Steve AkhurstAccounts PayableSpecialty Toys Direct IncBURNABY BC CA------------------------------

Hey All, I'm trying to create a python script which can be called from a BP program (use PyCallFunction or the like) which will log to fluentd. I have something which works on the first run of the BP program, but crashes on the second call. To replicate you don't need the BP program, the following will do, from TCL ``` PYTHON from fluent.sender import FluentSender sender.emit('uv', { 'level': 'info', 'message': "hello"}) sender.emit('uv', { 'level': 'info', 'message': "world!"}) quit() PYTHON from fluent.sender import FluentSender sender.emit('uv', { 'level': 'info', 'message': "hello"}) ``` The error is ```   File "/home/u2dev/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/msgpack/__init__.py", line 36, in packb    return Packer(**kwargs).pack(o)           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable ``` It looks like on the second go round msgpack can't import Packer for a .so file. I've tried setting REINIT.PYTHON OFF, but no luck. This is on UV 11.4.1 and my python requirements

Question on EDA - from someone outside of/new to the Rocket Community....(excuse the rookie knowledge/terminology)1. Are there any good/bad practices around the handling I-types in EDA ie pros/coms 2. How does EDA handle changes in i-type definitions / changes to subroutines and/or changes in data that subroutines access - ie does the tool/dtabase automatically identity changes , or does the field being converted have to be reinitialised in some way + what is say the downstream impact of replicating a field change in a table of a million records------------------------------Mark MosbauerProject ManagerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Hi all, i wonder if someone ever have tried tu build a GUI-Screen in SBclient with TU.FORM.LOAD / TU.FORM.ADDOBJ. We are thinking about of doing this because using the gui-form painter is a pain, but in the newer SBXA documentations all of these subroutines are missing and therefore this may be a bad idea. what is  your opinion about doing this. best regards Thomas ------------------------------Thomas LudwigSystem Builder DeveloperRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Good Afternoon Group, I have an issue with SB/XA.   It is telling me that it "Couldn't create pbclass object FK2.  Object name already in use.  405, SBWIN_99_6*FK2".    (Actually image is attached, below.) I have 2 buttons in my GUI screen.   I know that the F2 is normally "Save" and F4 is normally "Delete".   In my case, I'm using the F2 key as "Generate" and the F4 key as "Exit".    I have used this methodology in the old SB+, but we are going start using SB/XA 5.5.4.  This "issue" is from SB/XA. Can anyone offer any advice or guidance on how to get rid of this?   I have deleted the button and re-inserted it, but to no avail.   The interesting part, the F4 is just fine. Thank you for your time and consideration.   I will be looking forward to any and all feedback. ------------------------------Grant BoicePrincipal Software DeveloperMatheson Tri-Gas Inc.Warren, NJ 07059------------------------------

Hi Team,  I have written a sample program to update the data file. PROGRAM UPDATE.DATA.DRV * Declare variables     CUSTOMER.ID = ""     NOTE = ""     RECORD = "" * Get the CUSTOMER ID (2nd word from the sentence)     CUSTOMER.ID = FIELD(@SENTENCE, " ", 2) * Get the NOTE (3rd word and onwards from the sentence)     NOTE = FIELD(@SENTENCE, " ", 3, LEN(@SENTENCE)) * Strip double quotes if present     IF NOTE[1,1] = '"' THEN NOTE = NOTE[2,LEN(NOTE) - 2] * Open the CUSTOMER file     OPEN "CUSTOMER" TO CUSTOMER.FILE ELSE         PRINT "ERROR: Unable to open CUSTOMER data file."         RETURN     END * Read the record for the given CUSTOMER ID     READ RECORD FROM CUSTOMER.FILE, CUSTOMER.ID ELSE         PRINT "ERROR: No record found for CUSTOMER ID: ": CUSTOMER.ID         RETURN     END * Update the NOTE attribute (assuming the note is in attribute 2)     RECORD<2> = NOTE * Write the updated record back to the file     WRITE RECORD ON CUSTOMER.FILE, CUSTOMER.ID     PRINT "CUS

We noticed that our upload program, which utilizes SubmitRequest was timeing out.  We increased the value from 100000 to 400000 and it still timed out at 100 seconds. Seems like the increased variable should have changed the outcome.  Any ideas? httpTimeOut = 400000    contentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8" result = createSecurityContext(security_context, "TLSv1.2:Min")       if (result = 0) then          result = createSecureRequest(postURL, postType, req_handle, security_context)          if (result = 0) then             result = setRequestHeader(req_handle, "Content-Type", contentType)             if (result = 0) then                if (token <> '') then                   result = setRequestHeader(req_handle, "Authorization", "Bearer ":token)                end                result = submitRequest(req_handle, httpTimeOut, postData, respHeaders, respData, httpStatus)                output = respData                if (result = 0) then … ------------------------------

Hi A strange behavior, we have a subr WI.LOG which call another subr GET.PORT which make a simple OCONV(0,'U50BB') U50BB run fine million times a day.  Sometime the session seems 'suspended' and PORT. STATUS LAYER STACK return GET.PORT at 0x000000000 !  After a while, the system continue... I suppose its a lock situation ! Semaphore lock ?  Is someone experience a subr call 'stopped' like this ?  Adress 0x000000 is strange ?  Thanks for any comment.  Manu BASIC run machine GET.PORT 0x00000000 BASIC run machine WI.LOG 0x00000028

Had a case today where the mvBase 3.3.2 installer would not run on a Windows 11 box. They were trying to install the workstation component. The installer just hung and never made it to the Welcome screen, even though they "ran as administrator" but not logged in as an admin user. We fixed the issue by logging onto the Window 11 box as the local administrator. Then everything ran fine. This is a gentle reminder to ALWAYS be logged on as a local admin user when running the installer. ------------------------------Brian S.

Hi, actually I only use VS Code with MVVS to program in Universe, and I found it amazing. I am now starting to develop in D3 and jBASE, but found out that these two databases are not supported in MVVS.    Are there plans to add MVVS support for D3 and jBASE? That would be really great!   Regards,   Enrique Murphy------------------------------Enrique Ignacio MurphySoftware EngineerAleator SRLArgentina------------------------------

MVS Toolkit versions 2.2.3.121 and earlier required activation. We no longer have the ability to activate those versions. If you are running an older version, we highly recommend that you upgrade. If you decide to continue to run on the older version, at least make sure you have a current Web Service Export just in case your Toolkit installation breaks and you are forced to upgrade. A Web Service export is much like a Pick file-save: Hopefully you never need it, but if you do, you'll be glad you have it! Upgrading the MVS Toolkit has more benefit that just removing the need for activation. The older Toolkit versions use Jetty and Java versions that have been deprecated because of security issues. If you have questions or need help upgrading, please contact Rocket D3 support.------------------------------Brian S.

We are running SB 5.5.3 and we frequently end up with orphan port assignments in DMSECURITY. We were advised to use the RELEASE.LICENCES process to make the ports in DMSECURITY available. However, it seems that the process is not treating the phantom processes correctly, it determines that these are orphan and releases them. The consequence of this is that when the phantom completed and tries to reschedule itself, it fails. We end up with a shortage of licenses, when we actually have licenses available, the message the users are getting is the following: Has anyone ever experienced this before and if so, how did you deal with it. Upgrading to a newer version of SB is not an option. Thank you. André Guindon
