I had a report of deleting some records from MYFILE was taking longer than it should. Below is the result of ANALYZE.FILE and HASH.HELP.  Can anyone provide some thoughts or advice about the size of MYFILE?   ANALYZE.FILE MYFILE File name= MYFILE File type= 18 File style and revision                 = 64BIT Revision 12 Number of groups in file (modulo)= 2368289 Separation= 4 Number of records= 7225458 Number of physical bytes= 6209269760 Number of data bytes= 3505627456   Average number of records per group= 3.0509 Average number of bytes per group= 1480.2363 Minimum number of records in a group= 0 Maximum number of records in a group= 13

Hi all I'm trying to make sense of the encoding of strings coming and going between Basic and Python. Our Universe database stores its data using OEM encoding, so to pass data to Python we do a series of transformations inside Basic to convert them to UTF-8. Now I want to pass this OEM strings, as they are, directly into Python and do the conversion there, but I'm having some trouble. ALL.CHAR.STR='' ALL.CHAR.STR=ALL.CHAR.STR:CHAR(1):CHAR(2):CHAR(3):CHAR(4):CHAR(5):CHAR(6):CHAR(7):CHAR(8):CHAR(9):CHAR(10):CHAR(11):CHAR(12):CHAR(13):CHAR(14):CHAR(15) * rest of characters... ALL.CHAR.STR=ALL.CHAR.STR:CHAR(241):CHAR(242):CHAR(243):CHAR(244):CHAR(245):CHAR(246):CHAR(247):CHAR(248):CHAR(249):CHAR(250):CHAR(251):CHAR(252):CHAR(253):CHAR(254):CHAR(255) RESPUESTA=PyCallFunction('encoding_test','test_encoding', ALL.CHAR.STR) On the Python side I'm doing this

Other than using the LIST.INDEX command to see if an Index build is required, are there any other tools available to determine if an Index is in-sync with the data file? We are getting false negative results using LIST.INDEX.  Example:  SELECT CUSTOMER WITH NAME = "SMITH" 1 record selected Then if we try: SELECT CUSTOMER WITH NAME = "SMITH" NO.INDEX 3 records selected If we rebuild the INDEX then the Select will return 3 records SELECT CUSTOMER WITH NAME = "SMITH" 3 records selected  Also, what would cause the Index to become out-of-sync with the data file, and how can we prevent this from happening? ------------------------------Gil SteidleDEVDDI System Incbrick NJ US------------------------------

If you have DX'd an FSI account, the QS pointer probably still exists in the VME's MDS. This can cause a problem with RESTORE-ACCOUNTS as it will create the DX'd account, restore the data from the account following it on the tape, then not restore that following account as itself. Example: you have an account called test followed immediately by an account called orders. You DX the test account and do a file save. You delete the accounts and do a RESTORE-ACCOUNTS. test will exist with the orders account's content and the orders account will not exist. Note that this affects RESTORE-ACCOUNTS but does NOT affect ACCOUNT-RESTORE, so if you stumble on this, you can delete any erroneous accounts and ACCOUNT-RESTORE FSI:<missing account> and you'll be good. Doing a d3vme /fileload is not affected either. Please note that Engineering is aware of this issue and currently working on a resolution. For those of you who need a little more detail on what I mean b

I am using a windows based universe system.  I want to be able to do a listu type of command to see if a certain program is already running so that I can parse it in a basic program.  I saw the LISTUSER command, but that only shows the account path and not the program that is running.  I also saw the port.status command, but that is not installed on this system.  Can you please advise on how to do this?------------------------------Troy DittbernerPresidentNorthstar Data Services IncBrooklyn Park VA US------------------------------

Can someone tell me the proper syntax for SQL statement to Universe. I have a large file that I need to fetch 10000 rows at a time from Universe that will update a remote AZURE DB daily. I don't have control over the AZURE site as EDA seems like a much better solution to keep the remote data current.I have tried:SELECT TOP 10000 * FROM FILE;SELECT * FROM FILE LIMIT 10000;SELECT * FROM FILE FETCH FIRST 10000;SELECT * FROM FILE WHERE ROWNUM < 10000;Thanks JR Moore------------------------------JR MooreIT Special ProjectsRocket Forum Shared AccountHillsboro US------------------------------

The dual terminal debugging feature seems to have stopped working correctly. I am on Windows 11 running Unidata 8.2.3. I used to use this feature heavily when debugging character base screens.

I have installed MVIS 1.3.4 and was hoping I would not have to re-key the Subroutines and dynamic arrays.  The manual talks about this on page 37  under "Importing a U2 REST server".  However, it says to use the U2 RESTful Web Services Toolkit to export/import.  I do not have any idea where to find this toolkit? MVIS admin does not have anything except Import/Export config (cm.ini) U2 Web Services Developer Tool contains our SOAP services but not the MVIS subroutines/arrays. There is a file that looks promising in C:\\U2\\CM\\u2rest names <ACCOUNT>.xml.  Is it as simple as copying that XML file from one server to the other?  What am I missing?

What is the best way to have one Accuterm session with limited menu options but also on some workstations to have a full menu session option.  I know to use the menu designer to control the master menu.  Can we install Accuterm in two different directories and have the two different Accuterm session icon point to different starting directories to allow the full menu session?   We need to lock down the limited menu Accuterm session so standard users can only use Accuterm as configurated to the servers we define but would like superusers and support staff the full version.   We control who can use which session type by AD group.  We use SCCM, a deployment tool that distributes software, to deploy Accuterm .    

We recently got an email from our security team regarding an ODBC vulnerability notice sent out from Microsoft. We are not currently using ODBC directly with UniVerse but it's probably still in use by our guys doing SQL. Just curious if anyone else has had to deal with this and if there are any results that may help others in the group. The two vulnerabilities are listed below: VUL0014881 - TEN-175440, Security Updates for Microsoft SQL Server OLE DB Driver (April 2023) VUL0014958 - TEN-175440, Security Updates for Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver (April 2023) Thanks!----

I have a client that runs Universe processes from cron. They do it by running a shell script that changes to the desired Universe folder and then execute "uv SOME.COMMAND".  Universe starts up and runs that command. The problem is, it first runs the LOGIN proc so if there's a menu, it displays that and only runs the command when they exit. They've gotten around that by checking to see if the user is running as root (which is how their cron jobs run) and going directly to TCL if that's the case. That works but has some issues. Is there any way to start Universe in an account but tell it to not run the account logon procs? Alternatively, is there any way from a basic program to tell if Universe was started with a command line argument? When you run uv with a command, does it push it onto the stack? How does it all work?

Greetings!Can someone point me to where on the Rocket site I can find high-level documentation regarding UniVerse EDA?  I have the docs that come with the UV 1.3.5 Documentation packet, but those are more setup and admin.  I'm looking for something I can use to help explain to those above me what it is and why we should use it - kind of like an executive summary/white paper.  I am hoping for more than the page that says "EDA is wonderful - contact us for more info", but less than the config/admin docs. I thought I had found it many moons ago, but am not having any luck today.  I am apparently not very good at searching for things on the Rocket site. Thanks!!Brian

Hey all,First time posting so I hope I'm in the correct area. Please correct me if I'm wrong.With the recent dropping of OpenSSL 1.1.1 support, I'm wondering if there has been communications from Rocket Software to support OpenSSL 3 for UniData 8.2.4. This is going to be a huge pain-point for our organization and are trying to prevent issues stemming from this if at all possible.From reading about OpenSSL 1.1 vs OpenSSL 3, there is a possibility of applications that use 1.1 to work with 3.0, but there's no guarantee. Backwards compatibility is limited. Another question because I'm curious: has anyone implemented openssl 3 for UniData 8.2.4 and, if so, were there any issues?Thanks,Brandon------------------------------Brandon BunchERP Solutions Specialist IIRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Looking for a way to locate the proper attribute in an output record where the appropriate data could end up on different attributes depending on conte Example,  I 1st need to differentiate the type of record, which can be done with something like :    IF INDEX(@ID,"WoJournal",1) THEN <acttion1> else if INDEX(@ID,"PoJournal",1) THEN <action2> ELSE <action3> 2nd, each action will need to find the proper attribute where the "STATUS" is logged. Then it will need to extract the STATUS itself from the line which can use FIELD statements.

I am trying to get into the debugger in a program by typing the break key using <ctrl-c>, but all it does is print ^C.  I did BREAK ON before running the program. Is there a different key that needs to be used or how do I break to get into the debugger?

Troy,What terminal emulator are you using? Many of them intercept the CTRL-C key sequence thinking you want to use it for cut and paste. If it looks like all the settings in UV are correct, check the emulator settings.Brian

Good morning, I have a system that uses the terminal type "VT220".  A couple of reports that I offer the option of either display or printer require 132 columns to display.  I use the ESC:"[?3h" command to do this expansion and it works fine.  At the end of the report when I attempt to reset the display to 80 columns by issiuing the ESC:"[?3l" command it does not work.  The screen stays in 132 column mode.  Does anybody know how to get the screen back to 80 columns?  The emulator is AccuTerm 8. Thanks, Dale

Hi all. I'm using the inspect module to extract information about our code. The code runs well in the Python console but when called from Universe Basic I'm getting a Python runtime error. The Python side is really simple. I've reduced my code to a minimal example that reproduces it: File: leer_documentacion_min.py This is the module that does the inspection import inspect import json import sys def parameter_as_string(name, p): def_value = f' = {p.default}' if (not type(p.default) == type(inspect._empty)) else '' typ_annot = f':{p.annotation.__name__}' if (p.annotation.__name__ != '_empty') else '' return f'{name}{typ_annot}{def_value}' def leer_documentacion_y_funciones(script): try: if script in sys.modules: sys.modules.pop(script) modulo = __import__(script) # rest of the code documentacion = modulo.__doc__ if modulo.__doc__ else 'Sin

Hi All, I have just upgraded from Accuterm 7 to Accuterm 8.1 I am currently having issues with opening multiple instances of Accuterm. I have 2 sessions saved to my desktop. I open the first session with no issue, on attempting to open the second session, the system reverts to the current open session of Accuterm. On the previous version of Accuterm, 2 separate windows would have opened. In the settings I have checked the option to 'open sessions in new window' any suggestions? thanks George.
