while we suspect a 3rd party program might be causing the issue or at least helping it along , what we are trying to do is isolate or prove it. any suggestion or ideas are welcome as we are running out system info udt - 8.1.2 redhat - 7.9 when unidata locks up  showud shows all the processes running yet any ECL sessions are locked up trying to login via udt hangs, we turned on error logging but the log file only shows the start of unidata and nothing else udtmon - does show a little disk activity we did straces on the udt processes including trying to open a udt session  attached is an strace of a udt session and an ipcs output when the system is hung any ideas or suggestions are welcome as well have been stumped, we are talking to the 3rd vendor as well and like I said we are not positive that the issue but we have seen their process using a lot of memory and cpu

I am planning upgrading our D3Linux system and the hardware it runs on.  I am considering setting it up to run on a RHEL virtual machine with the hope that future major version upgrades might be easier on the same hardware. Are there any major cons of running in a VM?    Any configuration and setup tips are welcome.------------------------------Steve CaspersMurphy Automotive IncRosemount MN US------------------------------

Hi All, I'm sure I've posted on this matter before but I just had a bit of a wobble understanding why my code wouldn't compile, until I notice the variable I had used started with the word NEXT (as in Next_Available) and the D3 compile went out and took another shot of tequila and said 'nada - not today hombre'So, just put it out there NEXT (suffix not allowed) and I'm sure there may be others - like NOT and FOR and ...Does anyone care to comment?------------------------------Stefano GallottaManaging MemberSimply Red Open SystemsMilnerton ZA------------------------------

Just noticed that Unidata had a directory called minidump When i looked at files in the folder the files stated "The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access" What does this mean, should I be concerned, how can I tell what is causing these files to be created------------------------------robert modrichDeveloperRocket Forum Shared AccountTEMECULA CA US------------------------------

Hi Folks, we recently upgraded to 82 Unidata in a testing environment, and are getting the following in SMM logs; In UT.OBJ/_S.READLIST at line 90 insufficient memory, requested size = 37567064. Thu Feb 16 14:28:02; errno=0: ICSubCall returned from basic, ReturnCode=-1. I do not have access to the source code for S.READLIST but it is dealing with very large save lists. Any thoughts on what we might have wrong? Rick Brown------------------------------Rick BrownSysadminRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Anyone using UniVerse and EDA with "virtual" dictionaries?  I have a user running UniVerse 11 and using EDA. EDA is working fine on true attribute dictionaries, but now he's trying to add an I-type like this:      DIV0001 I0002 "10"00030004 DIV0005 10R  Just a hard coded value "10" - but in the SQL Table the column is populating with NULL. ------------------------------Mark EastwoodDeveloperAFS Technologies IncPhoenix AZ US------------------------------

I am launching a process from a UniVerse Basic program using:       PH.CMD='PHANTOM SQUAWK MY.PROGRAM'      EXECUTE PH.CMD CAPTURING PH.VALS It returns the &PH& log filename and the PID as expected. However, when I de-cataloged the program, it still came back with both values. The only way I realized it was failing was by either running "ps -aef" from Unix or looking in the &PH& file: 0001 Verb "MY.PROGRAM" is not in your VOC. Is there a BASIC program command way to know if MY.PROGRAM actually did launch?------------------------------Nelson SchrothpresidentC3CompleteShop LLCHarrison OH US------------------------------

Greetings, all!We are running UniVerse 11.3.4 on AIX 7.2.  We received the following error in the UniVerse errlog file:       Fri Feb 17 15:24:34 -144 root /usr/ibm/uv/bin Failure to login as remote user. There are only 3 of us that know the root password, but none of us were logged in.  Additionally, direct logins using the root user are not allowed by our system - neither through ssh nor through the software application we use (which comes in through uvapi and uvcs).  UV itself does run as root, though.   How can it say that the login failed, when there's already a port number assigned? The uv and unix logs have been checked, and so far there is no evidence of any connection made by the root user at that time. What does the error actually mean?  Any info would help us figure out where to look to determine what happened. Thanks!Brian

We just posted a patch for MVS Toolkit version 2.3.2 in the Downloads section of the Rocket Customer Portal (RCP). It is a .zip file that contains three .jar files and a readme. If you have any questions, please reply or reach out by other means. Readme content: The default directories for the .JARs you are about to deploy are as follows: Linux:        /usr/local/RocketSoftware/mvs/server/libs/serverWindows:    C:\\Program Files\\Rocket Software\\MVS\\server\\libs\\server If the default MVS path was overridden at installation time, please adjust your path accordingly. To install the new scripts: 1.    Stop the MVS server2.    Make a backup of the existing .JARs3.    Copy the new .JARs to the appropriate directory4.    On Linux, chmod the .JARs to add execute permissions (if not already present)5.    Start the MVS server On Windows, stopping and starting the Rocket MV Web Service is done us

Being used to the Unidata format, when running this command in Universe the file the lock is in does not display. We have common keys across many files so the format of this tool is very unhelpful to us! Does anyone have the syntax, alternate command, or custom ditty that shows all the pertinent info for a lock at one time? IE login, date/time, file, ID, process ID, User ID?Thanks for the help!------------------------------Kathleen HambrickProgrammer at Colwell------------------------------

For decades, my customers have been emailing from their D3 applications by using a Windows command line email processor called "Blat." One customer claims that his IT guy told him that Blat will no longer work because their email server requires 2-factor authorization.1. Is the IT guy correct?2. Is there a workaround for 2-factor authorization to allow Blat to work?3. Is there another solution?Thanks.------------------------------Richard GinsburgPresidentGinsburg ConsultingManassas VA US------------------------------

Many years ago when we went to the web we stopped using paragraphs. We have not used a PROC since the early 2000s with any of our clients. So when we moved to the web using UniObjects for Java you could only call subroutines through our API. This meant we had no use for any of the 1000-plus paragraphs that we had written over the years. If we need to select we use EXECUTE to handle getting the data.I was wondering if what I am describing is true for other Unidata, Universe, and D3 customers that have gone through a migration to the web. I have a would-be client that says you can keep all of them. I just don't want to use and EXECUTE to call the paragraph and DATA the need inputs. Am I wrong here?------------------------------Doug AverchOwnerU2logic------------------------------

I think we need a Labour Exchange where those looking for expertise can post their requirements and those with expertise can also post their experience and then they can contact each other.In my case, I am looking for people with expertise in D3/Linux, SB+ and MVS Toolkit, to work on systems that are now over 30 years old and are and have been continuously updated and new projects that are being rolled out on a regular basis.What do you all think?------------------------------Alex PolglazeThe Book-Keeping NetworkPerth Western Australia+61419 776 348apolglaze@book-keepingnetwork.com.auhttps://www.book-keepingnetwork.com.au/------------------------------

I accidentally created an invalid record(s) in a uv 11.2.5 file that I can't get rid of. The file is CONTROL and the record "@ID" contains multiple CHAR(9)'s. Because CONTROL is open to every process and I can't take the system down, I'm hesitant to try commands that might cause issues. My last resort will be to create a new file, copy the valid records and replace the existing, but there has to be a fix that doesn't require taking the system down. I've tried to manually select and delete the record(s). I also wrote a program when that failed. I've tried multiple things in the program, using SELECT statements and creating the ID, but the READ statement hits the ELSE clause because it's not valid. The info below demonstrates that a single record selected is handled as 2 records when I edit them. >SELECT CONTROL = "[19791 ]"1 record(s) selected to SELECT list #0.>>AE CONTROL< 1 > Top of New "LAST.DMD.NEW.DAILY^009* Date of la

I'm adding some validation to a routine that launches BASIC programs to ensure that the program's object code can be found (and is not a subroutine or function).For main programs I think the search path is as simple as Local VOC GLOBAL.CATDIR (if the program starts with "*" - testing has shown that only globally cataloged programs that start with "*" can be  run ) For subroutines and functions it gets more complicated Local object code of program that will call the sub/function Local VOC GLOBAL.CATDIR (for all the available prefixes: "*", "!", "-", "$" Leaving aside the technical hurdle of pulling apart local object code looking for additional subroutine/functions, and the logic needed to detect if object code is a subroutine/function - that will have to wait for now.Is there anything that I might have missed in these search paths?Is there any case sensitivity settings/toggles t

Hello , there. We have a rich client application, written in Delphi that ships (installs) with the follwing dlls dependencies:  As far as I know, there is noother requirement (lib or whatsoever) needed for the client to run. My question is, ¿what is the path that I need to follow to secure comms  (using SSL I guess) this client App ? If there is , ¿can we "pack" the solution with the installer ? . Going PC to PC is out of the equation.Regards, David.  ------------------------------David Ricardo Lopez BonaecheaDirector of Software StrategyQuiter Servicios Informaticos SLSantander ES------------------------------

Looking for a way to put our UniData system in a read-only mode.  I'm not talking about the UniData files, just our production files.I was thinking I'd have to do it at the OS level.  But I thought I'd check with the community to see if such a "switch" exist.  We are running UniData 8.2 on Window2019 server.Thanks.------------------------------David GreenComputer ProgrammerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------
