Is there a way to get Unidata to respect a change to VFIELDSIZE without arestart? I have the setting being exported in a profile.d script and it'sset on interactive logins, but Unidata doesn't seem to want to respect thechange.

I am using UV 11.3.3 on RHEL7 for this investigation.I am trying to resolve the logged in user's group numbers into group names.The BASIC SYSTEM() function has a number of options to get a user's group details: SYSTEM(29) returns the current "gid" - as a group number SYSTEM(30) returns the effective "gid" - as a group number SYSTEM(1017) returns  the user's supplemental groups - as a dynamic array of group names SYSTEM(1403) returns all the local system groups - as a dynamic array of group names Having access to the user' supplemental groups makes it possible to establish security controls for parts of the application.Basing such controls on the group id rather than the name would make the security setup un-portable as there is always the possibility that the group ids will change on different systems.I have not found a system function that returns the group id and group name together.I can execute SH -c "id -gn" in order to get the user's primary group name.I can execute SH -c "id"

is it safe to run "uvlictool clean_lic -a" on a unix system while users are logged on? Thanks,------------------------------mark eastwooddeveloperAFS Technologies IncPhoenix AZ United States------------------------------

I have had a problem for years that when my UniVerse Basic program was attempting to create a security context record, it would create the 1st one just fine and then hang up trying to crate another one.  With the help of Rocket's Brian Kupzyk, we finally found the problem.There is a file in the account named ".bscrfile" that the saveSecurityContext writes to.  Protocol logging showed it was unable to open it, so the save left a lingering RD lock behind (even when breaking out of the program).After increasing the Unix permissions to 660 and setting user & group appropriately, the problem disappeared!Brian has generated a low priority engineering ticket UNV-31674 so Rocket may eventually fix this.In the meantime, this is the workaround for those of you who use SC's who may encounter this problem.Nelson------------------------------Nelson SchrothpresidentC3CompleteShop LLCHarrison OH United States------------------------------

Very simple... UV Basic calls a Python function with a simple print() statement.  However the python print() statement doesn't print.  Much obliged in advance for any insight.

i just started working at a d3 shop after working with U2 for years. I am very surprised that D3 does not have the U2 AE editor. That AE editor makes it a breeze to view and modify VM and SVM data. I do not understand why it not available. It is just a special text editor.​------------------------------William MoffaSoftware DeveloperSelf RegisteredOld Bridge NJ United States------------------------------

Modernization. You probably see this word all the time. I'm curious, what does it mean to you? Specifically, what does modernization mean for your business-critical application that is built on a MultiValue platform. Your organization has invested in your business-critical MultiValue-based applications over the course of years and maybe decades. How do you ensure those applications can adapt and grow alongside your organization for continued return on investment for years to come? If you're focused on increasing productivity, are you looking at development tools and modern programming languages that are easy to use, efficient, and address the skills gap? If you're focused on simplifying integration, are you interested in lightweight, zero-install client applications with Open APIs? Is speed to market at the top of your list, including implementing continuous integration, continuous delivery (CI/CD), cloud (on-premises or hybrid cloud deployment and containerization)? If you're not focu

Hi, I have installed MV Basic for Visual Studio Code. It's really cool. I could open a basic programs folder, but could not connect to the database, so I can't compile, or have the additional features I saw it provides when connected.  I have followed the documentation of this Forum, downloaded the JDK 11 from the indicated link, placed its path in the MV Basic Extension configuration, and created the following .rmv/db.mvbasic.json file:{"db": {"host": "192.168.2.100","userName": "root","password": "123456","account": "ALEDB","dataSource": "UNIVERSE","port": 31438},"includes": [{"includeFile": "BP","account": "ALEDB", "fileName": "BP"}]}  First of all, whenever I open a Universe Basic, the following message appears in VS Code:Java 11 or Open JDK runtime environment is abnormal. Please check your Java environment and settings  Second, when doing F1 -> Connect to MV Server, another messages tells me "Connect to U2 server failed"  Any ideas?  Regards,------------------------------Enriq

Have heard these sad stories of fool hardy conversions from MV to solutions selected as a result of recommendations by consultants, accountants and teh like.We have developed and implemented systems in MV over 40 years.The frame works that we built 30 years ago still stand robustly .The key words  used when confronted are:1) They say Legacy system: we counter by saying you mean a 9am to -5pm  system?2) The say MultiValue ???   We say: you mean you want to see the data like you see in a pivot table in Excel right ? or do you want an entity relationship diagram?3) They say difficult to maintain and modernize the system: We say we are technology independent .. tell us what you want and what frame work you want us to use to develop in? we will use  the framework that you recommend. 1) dont forget when we first used MV to develop systems the frame works were mainly  I/O (input output) . These systems were used by people who came in at 9 am and worked on thier green screens to input data fro

Hello all.  With the new error tooltips in 1.2.0, many of the programs I'm viewing show numerous error for Undefined Functions.  Is there a way to turn off these specific errors, or is the intention for us to setup our workspaces to have access to every function/subroutine needed?Thank you

Well,  Interesting announcement this morning!!I have been hesitant to mention MVConnect as a great solution to modernize D3 since the product wasn't owned by the resource we are communicating on.  As of today I can!!!  While rocket has the MVToolkit that they are working on I prefer the MVConnect product as a solution and have built our web integration upon this product.The product is light weight and allows full control of the disbursement of data via pick basic and the business logic you currently have in place.MVConnect ROCKS!!!!I encourage all to take a look at it as a solution to your modernization needs.------------------------------Craig CurtisSystem ProgrammerSevier Valley School DistrictRichfield UT United States------------------------------

A while back, D3 introduced the concept of Host Authentication to give users the ability to manage passwords and password standards using O/S authentication ( Active Directory, LDAP, whatever ). This is detailed in the D3 System Administration Guides:https://www3.rocketsoftware.com/rocketd3/support/documentation/d3nt/103/admin/index.htmhttps://www3.rocketsoftware.com/rocketd3/support/documentation/d3linux/103/admin/index.htmhttps://www3.rocketsoftware.com/rocketd3/support/documentation/AIX/103/admin/index.htmWhile that is a really good thing to implement and highly recommended by Rocket D3 staff, including myself, sometimes it can be a bit challenging to implement. For those of you who simply want a way to enforce D3 password standards ( expiry, history, length, character content ) from within D3 itself, you might want to take a look at this program I wrote for an end user. To implement it, you would call this program from the USERS file item logon macro ( somewhere after TERM-TYPE on

Hello all.  I'm really enjoying the flexibility of using the custom.json to define a brief description and even the signature for our programs, and I'm curious if this could feasibly be expanded to include Named Commons in some capacity.  It'd be incredibly helpful to have the definition of a Named Common, or even specific elements of the Common, available as a tooltip within the editor.Thank you

Hi,I'm on UniVerse 11.1.9 running on Linux.  My question is about the CallHTTP function, submitRequest().  I'm using code like the below to communicate with an external web service. result = createRequest(PROXY.URL,http_method,request_handle) IF result # 0 THEN ERRORS<-1> = 'createRequest() failed with return code ':result; GO FATAL.ERROR result = setRequestHeader(request_handle,"Content-Type","application/json") IF result # 0 THEN ERRORS<-1> = 'setRequestHeader() failed with return code ':result; GO FATAL.ERROR result = submitRequest(request_handle,30000,post_data,response_headers,response_data,http_status)​ It seems that when the http_method passed to createRequest() is DELETE, then submitRequest() ignores the post_data passed to it.  That is to say the value of post_data is not included in the body of the request.Can any confirm if this is expected behavior?

Good morning everyone;We are getting ready to do a request for qualifications and I'm not sure where to get started.  I am reaching out to this group since the project is to maintain and program our Unidata software through Rocket Dynamic Connect.  I have been the Accounting Manager and only know a bit about the technicalities of the software, all I know is that the software works, I just need help to maintain it and make changes as needed, create reports and perform routine maintenance to prevent issues with the system.Is anyone aware of a sample RFQ that I can use to send out to potential consultants.  We are currently working with a two employee company and we are growing much faster than they can keep up with us.  We are a water district and use Unidata for everything, currently using 11 modules (Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Backflow, Utility Billing, Fixed Assets, General Ledger, Inventory, Purchasing, Payroll, Assessors Database and Valve Maintenance).I'm not sure if th

Seems so simple but, i'm trying to get ones exact age, on any given day, using their internal birthday. If I do the obvious, subtract internal birthdate from current date and divide by 36525, I get the accurate year but months and days comes out as a fraction of a year...Anyone have an easy calc for this?Thanks------------------------------Kathleen HambrickPROGRAMMERWilliam C Earhart Co IncPortland OR United States------------------------------
