After installing as root, are there any options for running Unidata as aless-privileged service account? I'm working with a customer that forsecurity reasons does not want the main unidata processes running as root,and they're pointing out that Oracle, Apache HTTP, Postgres and many otherserver-side services have the ability to run under non-user accounts.I don't think it's possible, and haven't seen anything in the docs (thoughthere is a hint that it's possible for UV, running as a user uvadm,https://rbc.rocketsoftware.com/downloads/readme/UV-11.3.3.pdf?16:05)Thanks for any experiences, both positive and negative!Ian

Hi all,Just wondered if anyone has tried this or may know the answer. I have gzipped files in unix and I am trying to send these via a http POST, but having issues. I've tested via postman, so know it's something I am doing wrong.I have added 'Content-Type application/json", and "Content-Encoding gzip" to the header, and read in the file to use as the payload, but get the following when checking the response header:  ------------------------------Simon WoolfallSenior Software EngineerRocket Forum Shared AccountBELFAST GB------------------------------

We noticed these entires in our errlog for the first time today - where could we find some more info on what's happened here?Is it just indicating that the unirpc service crashed?

Good Afternoon Everyone!We are in the midst of upgrading to UniData 8.2 from UniData 6.0, SB+ 5.2.3 to SB/AX 5.5.4.   My coworker and I are trying to use the .NET processing to connect to various processes/databases and seems like we are running into "potholes" or "walls".I have downloaded the U2 Clients And APIs UniObjects for .NET Developer Guide version 5.2.1 and the U2 Toolkit for .NET User Guide version 2.2.3.My questions are the following: Has anyone else experienced issue like this that can share with us? Is there other PDFs/documentation out there that we can look at? Any feedback will be welcomed.Best Regards,------------------------------Grant BoicePrincipal Software DeveloperMatheson Tri-Gas Inc.Warren, NJ 07059------------------------------

Hello,Im using XDOM api in Universe 11.3.1 and I'm trying to import 'an xml fragment' from string into a current nodeHandle.Explanations :1 - Im creating an handle with XDOMOpen 2 - Im appending a node into this handleExample, at this time, my handle is a tree like this :<root>  <child>  </child></root> 3 - Im using XDOMLocate to get a new handle to "child" node, nammed childNodeHandle.4 - Now, I want to append to childNodeHandle an 'xml fragment' from a string (for example '<subChild><subSubChild><subSubSubChild></subSubSubChild></subSubChild></subChild>')Problem : if I do a new XDOMOpen with this fragment and get a fragmentHandle, I cant use XDOMIAppend/XDOMInsert(childNodeHandle....fragmentHandle) because childNodeHandle and fragmentHandle are not in the same tree in memory - its normal (I got this error  : DOM Exception code: 4

Hi allIs there a way to test the "level" that one has arrived at when the "execute" (verb) is used in code?It is of my opinion, that if one reaches past a certain level, this may cause the code to break (and falls into debug)I remember with the ADDS Mentor implementation, there was a check (some system(??) ) which one could test and take the appropriate action.Failing which, I guess, a simple stack_pointer counter may have to be implemented before such an (execute) statement - but that's messy :)Thanks------------------------------Stefano GallottaManaging MemberSimply Red Open SystemsMilnerton ZA------------------------------

Greetings all!We are about to move our Linux OS from RHEL 6.7 to RHEL 8.3 and our DBMS from D3 9.0.0 to D3 10.3.xFrom a security perspective, is there anything that has to be tweeked for user security and user's ability to connect to D3 from RHEL 8.3 and continue working as they do todayt? As an example, if I log onto D3 as "SomeUser", when I shell out to Linux, and perform a "whoami", the result is "root".It is my understanding that Red Hat has done many things to prevent users from inheriting "root" privileges.  Has that proven problematic with D3 use/users?~doc------------------------------[Doc] [Ruckel][IT Guy][Southwest Traders][Temecula] [CA] [USA][Doc]------------------------------

Hello Forum Members!I have a question and hope someone can point me in the right direction.    I recently stumpled across the a file directory named __V__VIEW.     It appears it has something to link UniData to an SQL environment.   My question is this....  Where can I find documentation on this?    I can seem to find it or maybe I'm looking in the wrong places.If someone could lead me into the right direction, I will be most appreciative!!!Thank you for your time and consideration in advance.Sincerely,------------------------------Grant BoicePrincipal Software DeveloperMatheson Tri-Gas Inc.3 Mountainview RoadWarren, NJ 07059------------------------------

Hi Guys,OK so I'm venturing into the snakey  (or snaky) world of Python here :)According to: Python is available in Rocket D3 10.3.1 - The Rocket MultiValue Blog The Rocket MultiValue Blog remove preview

I work with a set of code that verifies data and emails when something is wrong so these problems can be dealt with right away. It runs overnight as a phantom started by a linux cron job.The often changing nature of this code means it can be more prone to bugs like a variable not assigned.  That's fine, I can see the problems in the runtime-errors next day and fix. My problem is this program quits when it runs into a runtime error but if I run the same code in the foreground it doesn't.Is there a setting where I can control this behavior?Environment is D3 10.2 on CentOS------------------------------Bob FrankSoftware DeveloperJoseph N Golubov Associates IncLeesburg FL US------------------------------

Hello!In another thread, Jonathan indicated:"At 11.3.1 python was added for Windows and Linux only. If you want to use python on another platform you will have to upgrade past 11.3.1. Solaris was added at 11.3.2 , Aix was added at 12.1.1 and currently is not available for HP."According to the release notes, Python has been supported in UniVerse on AIX since 11.3.2, same as Solaris. Are the release notes incorrect?Brian Paige

As a normal practice I wouldn't be posting example code onto the forum unless someone was needing help about a specific problem. We did have a question come in from a customer this week asking for a new conversion code be added to UniData. This brought up a couple of interesting subjects. The customer was not aware that you could write your own code following a template to create your own conversion codes. It took me some time to find where this was buried in the manuals I can understand why they would not have come across it.So just in case others were not aware you could do this I thought I'd share with you how you do this.SUBROUTINE SUBNAME( return_val, STATUS, input_val, TYPE )***************************************************************** Brief functional description** (c) Copyright notice**************************************************************** Detailed description** Usage, such as return_val = OCONV(input_val,"USUB

When reading uv/errlog events, I would like to know what the call return stack was when the error occurred.In other words, the same info one gets from PORT.STATUS LAYER.STACK, or RAID "T" trace command, or SYSTEM(9001) function call. Create a UVCONFIG parameter for verbose error logging if you think it will be too burdensome to inflict on unsuspecting customers, but with today's system speed and storage capabilities, I think most would opt for more info. Business case: uv/errlog is an underappreciated but powerful tool for application quality improvement by working patterns of errors, correcting data, & -- most importantly! – finding & correcting root causes. Sometimes it is hard to resolve nebulous errors like:- Bad data "Y"

I was wondering if someone could comment on the use of the WIN.GETFTP host subroutine.  Every time we use it, it spits out a message "Invalid conversion type NO".  We have always set the type to "0" for ASCII when we make the call, but no matter what we set it to, we always get this message (and have for many years and versions of wIntegrate).  We currently use v6.4.0.What is it complaining about?------------------------------Nelson SchrothpresidentC3CompleteShop LLCHarrison OH US------------------------------

We currently have two dll installed one for pdf creation and one for qr creation, we did both of them back in 2012.   And of course our notes from then are spars.  We'd like to add another dll for excel creation.   I'm assuming that in 2015 we were using Visual Studio 2012 to compile and link the C code.   We're using VS2019 to do the same for the new dll.   dumpbin for the original two dll's shows linker version 11 (which I believe is VS2012).  When we manually install the dll into bin and add the entry to gci.admin (and confirm the addition to the registry).   we can't get the new dll to show up in GCI.NTMAP.B (the exist two dll's do, with there functions listed).My question(s).   Is there any log file that shows any hint of why the new dll wouldn't load?    Or if VS2019 would not work on win2012r2 or universe 11.2.4?I also, walked through the auto creation of the

Hey everyone, complete noob here who has been tasked with implementing some stuff with uopy.We have been reviewing the security of our proposed setup and have a few questions around uopy, the Unix user and the UniVerse user that we can't find any definitive answers for, so I'm hoping somebody in the community can lead us to the right bit of documentation for these:1. It seems that uopy has the capability to run SH commands (limited by the VOC?).  Is there a way to completely disable SH?  My limited understanding is that the VOC can be written to by the UniVerse user so can they re-enable access to SH by themselves?2. The uopy library seems to require a Unix user to operate.  If we disable the shell in /etc/passwd (or point their shell entry to /bin/false or something), would that have the effect of also disabling SH access via UniVerse?3. If we have to have a Unix user for our uopy to operate, can be make ownership of all their files read-only so
