Is there any configuration in Unidata that can be adjusted for when a file starts emitting these messages into the udt.errlog?  Seems I've seen this start to appear at different times, but I've never seen a configuration option for it.

Can anyone recommend a test-to-pdf conversion program that I can run at the command line? - Bob------------------------------Bob ThomsonPresidentSynapse Computer Solutions IncSan Rafael CA US------------------------------

My Universe 11.4.1 system started doing this today. If I'm in a running program and hit Ctl-C I get the break option menu. If I select "D" I get this: Break: Option (A,C,L,Q,D,?) =DAbnormal termination of UniVerse.Fault type is 11.  Layer type is BASIC run machine.Fault occurred in BASIC program GET.PY.FILE at address 8 It happens with every program. If I start the program with RAID instead of RUN it works. It wasn't doing this yesterday and I've rebooted the system but that didn't affect it. Does anyone have any idea where to look to fix it?------------------------------Joe GoldthwaiteConsultantPhoenix AZ US------------------------------

Hi allSo, we're on Linux 10.x and it's great - HOWEVER: Is there a way we can tell the update processor to flash compile (as opposed to just compile) code?Generally, one would exit and compile using Ctl XCJust asking My client is still using System Builder 5.1 (don't laugh) and there is an option to call a program in the dictionary (correlative field):CALL MYPROGRAMThe interesting this is that this still functions (calling the program etc) but it takes a LOOOONG time to run.If one does a 'list filname mydictvar' then it's OK speed; however select filename mydictvar - takes forever!Any clues? One last point - has anyone out there got the System Builder source code? If so, I'd really like to connect with you.

I am stepping through code and to avoid long subroutine calls, I do a  "BLnnnn"  in the BASIC Debugger where nnnn is a line after the subroutine call I want to 'blip through' -- more often than not now, the BL command is met with a minidump: I have altered the code a little to avoid anything proprietary -- but this is the gist... I did not want to step into the subroutine at line 1031. SO ... I reasonably put in BL1032 which should catch me right after the routine comes back: But instead..... .L [1024]        SOMETHING<2>    = COMPANY.NO:@VM:INVOICE.NO [1025]        SOMETHING<2,-1> = INTERNAL.USER.ID:@VM:"":@VM:"1" [1026]        SOMETHING<8> = BATCH.NO ; SOMETHING<9> = "POST" (1027)        IF DEBUG.FLAG THEN [1028]          IF ( DO.A.DEBUG ) THEN SOMETHING<1,-1> = "$VDEBUG" [1029]          PRINT "Calling routine to DETERMINE.OUTPUT.DEVICE ..."

Have created a utility in Universe which calls python script using PyCallFunction.  Python script is creating the https connection and posting the request. This is where the Universe aborts and we receive the error: Fault type is 11. Layer type is BASIC run machine.

Hi I have a script that connects to my Unidata database and executes some commands. The script was working ok with UOPY 1.3.0 and Python 3.8. I just updated to Python 3.12, and I cannot connect anymore. I keep getting Error [81009] : The RPC failed I started to trace back, and I found the following: Python 3.8 -> Works Python 3.9 -> Works Python 3.10 -> Not Working Python 3.11 -> Not Working Python 3.12 -> Not Working I couldn't find the official version of Python that UOPY supports, so I wondered if 3.9 is the one. Any ideas?  Regards

Attached you'll see two jpgs of the same file generated by my software using D3 Linux 10.3 and Accuterm 7. The bottom file was received by the Thunderbird email client. The top file was received by the Yahoo email client. The Thunderbird client and another MS product have also received the files as Chinese characters. The actual file that my software generates and then emails in the body of the email is the Yahoo file. Why, pray tell,  is this happening and ONLY with this customer's system? None of my other customers are having this problem. UPDATED: Changed the logo to GIF instead of a JPG and everything is working just fine. ------------------------------Richard GinsburgPresidentGinsburg ConsultingMiddleburg VA US------------------------------

I've been setting up a new machine using Universe 11 and Centos 7 as the host OS and AccuTerm 7.3.2034.0. The Universe programs are all working but I've been having trouble with WED.  When I try to edit certain files it just locks up. The WED editor displays but with nothing open. If I click on it i get "A request to the MultiValue database server is pending....  Clicking on OK just re-displays the message.  The only way out is to click on the cancel button on the Server Mode status window. Once I click on that WED shows a message "The requested operation could not be completed: server not running".  I can click on that and WED goes away but the AccuTerm session is locked up. If I reset the terminal I can get back to TCL. I've tried everything I can think of to  fix it: I've checked all the terminal and stty settings.  I've tried installing older versions of AccuTerm I've tried to re-install the host programs, (That no longer works) I've tried moving the

Hi, I used Oracle Linux on my last 2 servers as I needed to build them after Centos had "died" but before Rocket had  certified Alma  & Rocky. I need to build another server and would like opinions as to which is better to go for, and why - Rocky or Alma?! Also any potential gotchas with either of them. Thanks in advance Tom------------------------------Tom PowerOwnerPower Business SystemsBenoni ZA------------------------------

When Linux got rid of xinetd in version 9, changes had to be made to D3, particularly in the area of telnet listeners. This includes turnkey telnet (telnet to Linux and get a D3 login prompt instead of a Linux login prompt), nailed telnet (a range of TCP ports that each connect to a specific PIB instead of the next available PIB), as well as the MVSP telnet listener, typically on TCP port 9000. systemd replaced the xinded functionality and is now used by D3 to set up these listeners. Now that D3 over Linux version 9 has been out for a while, it has come to our attention that there are some things missing from D3's systemd configuration which is causing some D3 and Linux stability issues. We are currently working to get formal patches out to mitigate these issues. Meanwhile, the fixes we are implementing are listed below and can be implemented manually to alleviate the problem while we're waiting for the formal patches. ______D3 Turnkey Telnet Service______ To fix a standard D3 telnet l

Had some code doing strange things.  This is the example:      IF VAR1 = "UNKNOWN" THEN *   CALL SEND.EMAIL(ORDER.NO)   do other things      There was no END statement.  My best guess was that U2 considered the "*" at the end as a NULL and allowed it to compile. Does anyone know? We changed it to be the following to solve the problem.      IF VAR1 = "UNKNOWN" THEN       CALL SEND.EMAIL(ORDER.NO)       END   do other things      ------------------------------Nelson SchrothpresidentC3CompleteShop LLCHarrison OH US------------------------------

Have you upgraded to either 11.4 or 12.2?  A while back I went from 11.3 to 12.1.  (In our case, we were motivated to jump because we were running on an old version of Windows server  that our system admins wanted to upgrade &, iirc, our version of 11.3 wasn't authorized for where they wanted to go.) We've had some I/O problems with 12.1 & it looks like Rocket is not really maintaining 12.1 with hot-fixes or enhancements & instead encouraged us to go to 12.2.    But now I see there is an 11.4.  And rumor has it there may be at least 1 more 12.1 I/O bug that hasn't been fixed yet in 12.2. We aren't really using any new 12.x functionality, & other than having to tweak some admin utilities that rely on things like LIST.READU which has changed,  I think we could go 'back' to 11.4 if that is a more stable release. The general question for people who are still on 11.3 is whether/why they should jump to 12.2 or 11.4?  TIA Chuck Stevenson ------------------------------Chuck S

Hi all I have a particularly disturbing situation that's just come about.I have BASIC code (source) which I compile in which I purposely place a DEBUG statement.Whereas before the DEBUGGER would provide me with the source code lines - I now am presented with the response:no source and sometimes get : * remote file system error Remote file has been moved or deleted The D3 account is in the FSI portion and the code is simply: 1< >debug <2 >crt 'hello' Any ideas (please)? p.s. Yes I bounced the D3 machine and the Linux machine and redid and got the same results.

Is there any way to disable the whole-screen copy when there is no active selection? When pressing Ctrl-C (or Ctrl-Ins if that's what's defined in settings) with no active selection, the entire screen gets copied. If you then hit Ctrl-V it pastes the entire contents of the screen. This is a big problem because it you accidentally hit Ctrl-C then Ctrl-V when editing, you end up with garbage in your file, and if there was a "fi" on the screen it becomes permanent, requiring restoring from backup. Example - after the first "12", I intended to hit Ctrl-V to paste in "r/7/9" and instead managed to hit both Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V at the same time, which ended up pasting the contents of the screen and filing some records I had intended to edit that are now in a questionable state. Thankfully this is a tame example and I will be able to correct them without restoring from backup, but it's still frustrating have to do cleanup.

Hi all I know I posted this (somewhere) before but it got "lost"I'm experiencing "hanging" after I issue a shutdown command with the new 10.4x on Linux. Follow me through with this. The shutdown command executes the odbc-setup command with a 'close' option (line 412) The odbc-setup option expects a confirmation of this option (line 167) which it never receives (from the original shutdown command)This results in the process "hanging" until a CR is issued. Please confirm - because that's what I'm experiencing. Thanks Stefano

I've been trying to create an updated Universe box using Rocky Linux. When I tried to connect with AccuTerm 7.3 it tells me there's no supported key exchange scheme. I'm not sure but I think it's because Rocky Linux removed the two ciphers that this version of AccuTerm supports, triple DES and blowfish. I found a post where Pete mentioned that there was an update to 7.4 that had support for newer encryption standards. I was wondering if that's available anywhere?

Suppose you have a file like TEMP that has NAME, ADDRESS, and PHONE where NAME and ADDRESS are both single values but PHONE is multi value. Like so: TEMP..................... NAME...... ADDRESS... PHONE..... 1                         NAME1      ADDRESS1   PHONE12                         NAME2      ADDRESS2   PHONE2-1                                                PHONE2-2                                                PHONE2-3 If you SELECT TEMP NAME ADDRESS then you will get a list where each record supplies two items to the list, namely the NAME as one item and ADDRESS as another item: 001 NAME1002 ADDRESS1003 NAME2004 ADDRESS2 However, if you SELECT TEMP NAME ADDRESS PHONE then you get at minimum 3 elements per item, but if PHONE happens to have mulitple values, no NAME or ADDRESS is supplied to go with each value. 001 NAME1002 ADDRESS1003 PHONE1004 NAME2005 ADDRESS2006 PHONE2-1007 PHONE2-2008 PHONE2-3 How can I get blanks inserted for NAME and ADDRESS when PHONE has multiple

Hello all,  I made a python script to read multivalue data in universe account and write in a file as CSV for example.  So, for decoding I use cp850.  Until that everithing working. When it's time to write I receive this error: error cp1252: UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character '\\u2591' in position 88: character maps to «undefined» So decode is good with cp850, ok with that ?  Problem is encoding ?  Maybe I can force encoding in utf-8 but I don't know how to do that ? Do you have an universe idea ? :-)  Thank you !  Jean------------------------------deleuze jeanRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Hi allHas anyone else noticed that you need an extra CR when you issue the shutdown (y command in D3 - AFTER it has started the shutdown process?It gets "stuck" (bad word) at a point and unless you hit a CR only then does it do the remainder - shut down the printers and ends the shutdown process to return to Linux. OR should we rather be using the systemctl stop D3svc ?Regards Stefano

The keyboard editor allows you to program function keys with any or all of the standard modifier keys, CTRL, ALT, and SHIFT.  I want to write a program to program a function key but the documentation seems to imply that I can program a CTRL function key (shifted or unshifted) or an ALT function key (shifted or unshifted), but it doesn't seem to allow me to program a CTRL-ALT function key (shifted or unshifted).  I doubt that I would ever personally need a CTRL-ALT-SHIFT function key but I'm writing a little program to allow the user to program his own function key without going into settings.  I'm trying to figure out if I should allow any combination of CTRL, ALT, and SHIFT like it does in the keyboard editor or just allow CTRL (shifted or unshifted) and ALT (shifted and unshifted).------------------------------Steve HenkelDirector of ISRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------
