There was a wIntegrate update planned for early 2024, but it appears that didn't happen.  I see now a "committed" update, v 6.3.5, for August 2025. Where can I find information on what's included in the update? Oops, sorry, I meant there is a committed update version 6.4.5, that is scheduled for August 2025.  

Hi guys, I have an issue on a customer site that is a Windows 2019 server running Unidata 8.2.1, the workstation is running Windows 11. This is an SB+ site so the users use SBClient (5.5.4). One PC that has been running fine for some time suddenly has a problem were the SBClient is launched, they click Start a Session, it connects to the server, connects to SB+, they enter their SB+ credentials and SBClient  then seems to go into "minimized mode" and will not open. I have tried removing any scripts, deleting and re-creating the profile, re-installing SBClient and even tried installing version 6.5.6 but this problem persists. the user assures me that nothing has changed on that PC. Other users are working fine. This user (with his credentials) works fine on a different PC. Has anyone seen this behaviour before or has any idea what the issue may be? Many thanks Barry---------

I have a few vb apps in place.  My latest one of works in vb 2022 but fails when when I install it in on another computer. Here is my code bit: Global:  Private MVSP As MVSP.PickPrivate MVSPFunc As New MVSP.Functions In form load:    Try       '  pool = New rocketsoftware.MVSP.PickPool()        MVSP = New MVSP.Pick       Display("Run Time Type" & MVSP.GetType().ToString)   Catch ex As Exception       Me.Show()       Display("MVSP Failed to init")       MsgBox("MVSP Init Error" & ex.Message)       BtQuit.PerformClick()   End Try The mvsp = new line is failing with error msg: Init Error int path is empty. I installed the d3client 103.4 on the computer, as well as c++ runtime. Nothing changes. I also installed .net 8 runtime  with the install.

I'm interested if anyone uses NFS to store account data remotely, with something like Netapp Files:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/azure-netapp-files/network-attached-storage-protocols.In my own research of documentation I can see the following:[The ALLOWNFS] parameter should only be turned on in the following cases:- When UniVerse is not running or not installed on the remote system. File integrity is compromised when locks are not maintained on the remote system.- When the system administrator does not allow other UniVerse installations to gain access to the same remote UniVerse files at the same time.So this would seem to indicate we are OK. I think I need to clarify: does local Universe locking still apply when ALLOWNFS is in use (and does this depend on the locking provided by NFS - because capabilities/implementations differ from version to version).

Good morning folks! How are VOC items created?  Compile/Catalog?  Are there any other files in UniVerse where executable items exist?

When I right click on a file name in the VSC explorer window I get the option "Compile selected BASIC programs". Selecting this (when connected to the U2 server) runs compile on the selected program(s) on the server. When I run this from F1 (or assign a keyboard shortcut to it) I get an error message even if focus is on the selected file name(s) in the explorer bar. [Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'forEach')] Is anyone else getting this issue? ------------------------------Stuart BoydellAU------------------------------

The Universe UDO... functions handle UDOFORMAT_XML and UDOFORMAT_JSON just fine. Is any effort in progress to extend them to UDOFORMAT_YAML?

What's the most efficient/fastest way to securely get data in/out of a jBase system? The last time I had to do this, we wrote a CGI interface and accessed the system via HTTPS. This time, we have no need for the full CGI environment, we just need to parse some JSON data, and return a JSON response.  Similarly, MVIS is overkill. Is there a "jClient", like there is with qm? We could just listen to a port, but the inbound connections will be coming from multiple clients, so we really don't want to run multiple transactions through the same process. We like the statelessness of separate connections.  Since jBase apps compile to OS executables, the current thought is to establish an ssh connection, with keys, run the appropriate routine, return the JSON and then exit.  We're wondering if there's something simpler.  ------------------------------Raymond DeGennaro

I guess I'm a better programmer than Admin. I have successfully(?) installed UniData on an AWS Server. But I'll be damned if I can start the DB. The install Manual states:You can now start UniData by selecting All Programs > Rocket U2 > UniData RDBMS 8.3.2.I assume that references:C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Rocket U2\\UniData RDBMS 8.3\\UDT or (directly):C:\\U2\\ud83\\bin\\udt.exeUnfortunately, the result is:Error msgno = 427. args = VOCerrno=2: No such file or directoryCan anyone point me in the right direction?Thanks in advance-Rich------------------------------Richard LucibellaDirectorRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

I would like to capture the dbpause is on message from a RESTful call.  Currently I'm getting an error 500 can't connect.  If I turn on the server_debug the server debug message does say dbpause is on.  So, I'm wondering if I can get the notification through my RESTful call.------------------------------David GreenComputer ProgrammerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

I have been looking for ways to encrypt data sent from a publisher to a subscriber. That data is sent to unirpcd on the subscriber and I have confirmed that, at present, it is sent as plain text. We have a lead interested in replication but want to ensure that the data transferred between the publisher and subscriber is encrypted (they're Unidata on AIX). I noted the existence of the "-s" option for unirpcd, but when I force unirpcd to start on pub and sub with this option, replication does not operate. I've been told that there is no "official" way to encrypt the replication data travelling between pub and sub(s), but that using a ssh tunnel may be an option. I'm pretty decent at setting up tunnels - I do it all the time, but I have yet to work out how to get replication to go through a tunnel. Any suggestions? Or does anyone have any other suggestions about getting the data from the publisher to the subscriber to be encrypted (preferably without having to do file enc

My name is Michael Belme, and I'm a Technical Support Engineer III with Rocket working out of Denver, Colorado. In this 8-part video series, I'll be covering the basics of why SSL is imperative for your business operations and how to easily protect data in transit flowing into and out of your U2 DataServers. I will cover the latest OpenSSL release used in U2 products and the changes it brings along... We'll take a look at Rocket's newly released U2 Certificate Management Tool, as well as the U2 Root Certificate Store and token-based authentication... both of which are found in the latest U2 database releases. Finally, the newly released secure-only UniRPCD port will also be explained along with steps to set up an SSL secured U2 REST server.  If you ever wanted to better understand the available security options found in UniVerse and UniData, then this video playlist is for you!

we have a file that has a MV list of part numbers in an attribute In D3, we used to be able to    select wo "235789" PL.IDS this would give is the keys to a new file. The dictionary looks like: DICT wo pl.ids01: S02: 1903: 04: 05: 06: 07: 08: F;"*"R;19;:;0R;_;:09: L10: 2811: A;0R:"*"R:N(PICKLIST.PNS) ~~ F;0;"*"R;:;19;: In D3, we would get 235789*001 235789*002 235789*003 In QM, we get 235789*001 002 003 Yes, we already use indexes though out our system, but we have some of this old logic.  We are hunting this down, but we would like to know to make the dictionary work correctly. We have tried the "A" correlative, but neither seems to work.------------------------------Jesse TilliaProman-ERP, Inc.West Seneca NY US------------------------------

Hi We have some clients that are using universe version 11.3.1. This release comes with Python 3.4 and we're having some trouble adapting our Python code so it can work properly in several platoforms. Is there a way to safely upgrade the Python version other than updating the whole Universe installation?------------------------------Héctor CortigueraQuiter Servicios Informaticos SL------------------------------

Hi As I posted in another thread, I'm trying to port some code from uopy to u2py but I can't debug the code properly. I'm using Visual Studio code, connected remotely to a server via ssh. I have a really simple launch.json: { "version": "0.2.0", "configurations": [ { "name": "Debug manual launch", "type": "debugpy", "request": "launch", "program": "${workspaceFolder}/test_file.py", "python": "/u2/uv/python/bin/python3", "console": "integratedTerminal", "justMyCode": false, "args": [], "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}", "env": {"PYTHONPATH": "${workspaceFolder}:${env:PYTHONPATH}"} } ] } The test file is something very simple: def test_u2py(): import u2py c = u2py.Command('

Running UD 8.3 on AIX with plenty of disk space. I have a number of large files (10M-50M) records that I want to re-size to improve overall performance, but more importantly, prevent any file corruption due to any file re-sizing activities. I am trying to find out what is the optimal number of records that each group should contain: 1- Is there a recommend number of records per group (keep it under 20 or a certain number)? This will allow me to properly size block and modulo.  2- Should I keep increasing size of the block until I have zero level 1 overflow, which means ignore number of records per group? Albeit I managed modulo size in conjunction with block size. Any insights or recommendations is greatly appreciated. Thank you

I have a complex I-Descriptor that should never output more than 2 characters.  Therefor, I have it set to "2L". Due to some bad data, a few records have 5-6 characters for this value. How can I direct the dictionary item to only out 2 chars?------------------------------Nelson SchrothpresidentC3CompleteShop LLCHarrison OH US------------------------------

I have a UniVerse file with a great diversity of record structures. Consequently I want to return the data for a record through EVAL rather than a DICT I-descriptor entry because DICT entries lead to overflows from other incompatibly structured records. FWIW, the output will ultimately be through ODBC using dynamically normalized Native UniVerseSQL. Don't worry if this isn't your thing, you may still be able to help with the EVAL I-descriptor expression I need. The values on the record in question are listed as an arbitrary number of individual attributes, which I can return as a single set of multivalues using LOWER(@RECORD) suitable to be read by ODBC. However I need to return them with the corresponding original attribute numbers and have not been able to come up with anything. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.------------------------------Greg ClitheroeRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------
