Hi everyone! Is there a version of OpenQM for personal use or study purposes? If so, where can I download it?
Hi everyone, Does anyone know how to make the "Universe Telnet Service" that runs on our IBS Application server, to only use 128bitblock Ciphers, and disable the other lower 64bit block ciphers? The service listens on port 992. The problem is that our Qualys VUN scanning tool is picking up that port 992 is a security risk againstBirthday attacks against TLS ciphers with 64bit block size vulnerability (Sweet32) and goes on to say"Disable and stop using DES, 3DES, IDEA or RC2 ciphers. We believe that the "Universe Telnet Service" uses OpenSSL that offers out these lower level ciphers, but we have no idea how to to best address this sothat the only ciphers used are 128-bit or higher ciphers. We are waiting on our third party support to get back to us as they have opened a ticket today. Current version of OpenSSL is OpenSSL 1.0.2m-fips 2 Nov 2017, though "Programs and Features" is saying OpenSSL 1.1.1k (64-bit) was installed on March 2021. Universe is 12.1.1 is installed. Thanks in advan
Michael Rajkowski March 29, 2017 Rocket Software has added support for the Python development language to Rocket® UniVerse 11.3.1 and Rocket® UniData 8.2, on Linux and Windows only. Python will also be added to Rocket® D3 in the second half of 2017. Adding Python support gives experienced and new MultiValue developers the opportunity to code in one of the most popular development languages available today. To help developers get started Rocket created a Python community page that hosts links to code samples, documentation and lots more. PYTHON IN MULTIVALUE – THE BASICS Python now sits at the same level as the other access method used by the MultiValue developer. Our MultiValue Python module consists of two parts. The main access point for the Python developer is the u2py module, which is Python code. The u2py module calls a module written in C. Since both Python and the U2 databases are written in C, it is compatible and can be embedded into the database. The entire box represents
Is anyone using Python within UniVerse to format data (.xlsx) that will be used as an email attachment?
When using MV BASIC in Online mode I have not been able to open multiple programs into separate tabs.This is a reasonably basic capability to have to support coder productivity.Is it meant to be possible?If so, is there a setting which controls it?
We want to inform you that the Rocket® MultiValue Developer Assistant will be retired effective June 30, 2026.This tool, integrated within the VS Code development environment, provided early AI-assisted capabilities for MultiValue developers. After careful evaluation, we have determined that it has not consistently delivered the level of impact our customers deserve in real-world development workflows. We made the decision to retire it rather than continue investing in a solution that doesn't meet that bar.-------------------------------------What's ChangingThe Rocket® MultiValue Developer Assistant will be decommissioned on June 30, 2026 Existing users will no longer have access after this date No technical action is required — though you may wish to update any internal documentation or workflows that referenced the tool-------------------------------------Data & PrivacyNo user prompts were recorded All server logs will be deleted as part of the decommissioning process------------
We are validating our software package will run on UV version 14.2.1 and noticed the TCL UNLOCK command has been changed since version 11.3.1. UNLOCK ALL is no longer valid and the command will not unlock some record locks.

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

In MvBase, there was a TCL command called “FIND”. This was a great utility. It allowed you locate a string in every record in the specific file.It would then give the user the chance to save the found record ID’s to a select list Is there are equivalent function or add-on in UniVerse?

We use UniVerse which allows strings to be quoted with backslashes.I just realised that the backslash quoted strings in MV BASIC are not recognised as strings, and then found it has been a bug since 2022[BUG] Syntax Highlighting Incorrect When Using Backslash ('\') to Delineate String Literals · Issue #167 · mvextensions/mvbasicNot having correct string detection causes flow-on false-positive errors to be presented which make using MV BASIC less valuable as you have to sort through those reports just in case it is hiding a real problem.I used Bing’s search to understand what is needed to sort this out.Bing’s AI indicates this is the snippet needed{ "name": "string.quoted.backslash.mvbasic", "begin": "\\\\", "end": "\\\\"}and that it should live in the syntaxes/mvbasic.tmLanguage.json file within the rocketsoftware.mvbasic extension folder.I have not tried this, but if it is as simple as that could it be corrected in the next MV BASIC extension release?
We run GUIDEs every night around 1:00 AM. On Sunday, one of our files, SODEL, suddenly had thousands of errors on an indexed field (SCHED.DT). I doubt there were any changes to the file since Friday and we had no errors before. I pulled up several of the noted records in the editor, went into up-arrow mode, but did not see any errors, control characters, etc. in the data.In a copy of our LIVE account, called MIDNIGHT (a copy of LIVE created ad midnight), and typecat GUIDE_XERROR.LIS | morewe see this:This goes on and on, possibly for all 500K records. The GUIDE_XERROR.LIS file is huge, over 22 megs.From within UniData, if I type “SSELECT SODEL BY F4”, I get:I get this for a bunch of records (maybe every record). If I edit the SODELs, none have any escape characters, so what is this error trying to tell me?This is followed by: The keys to the SODEL all look correct.I build a new file called SODEL.JRI and from the command line, copied all the records to this new file.

Hi,Using VS Code and extension Rocket MV BASIC 2.7.0 is connecting 100% to my UniData account version 8.3. But as soon as I go to any version higher then Rocket MV BASIC 2.7.0 I get a error Account Not Found from MV BASIC. The config files have not change between the versions. Is there anything I need to do with the UniData Account to support a higher version of Rocket MV BASIC?

Hi folks, I have a performance issue with the large-scale system. I know that this discussion depends on resources, so please assume sufficient resources are available. Let's think about a single read-only transaction performance by just 'run <file name>'. Assuming that elapsed time is 5 sec and CPU time is 1 sec. Then I tried processing this query by concurrent 2 users by phantom, but each user of elapsed and CPU time was very much worse than single. Roughly, it's 10 times worse. In reality, Is it impossible to get a benefit from parallel processing? ---- Sample basic program. cnt = 300000 open "STOCK" to fp else abort startTime = Time()startTimeCpu = System(9) for i=1 to cnt read rec from fp,"101" else abortnext i endTime = Time()endTimeCpu = System(9) print "elapse : ":(endTime - startTime)print "elapse(cpu) : ":(endTimeCpu - startTimeCpu)/1000 end ------------------------------------- ------------------------------Yukio KozukaSimount CorpBunkyo-ku JP----------
I am attempting to use Online mode of the extension to edit source code from the remote UV server. After connecting to the server, I attempt to expand one of the listed accounts.It processes for a while, and then displays a popup up notification in this format:mvvs:/{server}/{acct}/A.FILE.NAME The ‘A.FILE.NAME’ is a legitimate file in the account, but the file has no DICT level.This file is not a code library.The code libraries in the account are known.How can I configure the extension to not get stuck on this file?How can I configure the extension to ONLY consider the known files?
