Created On:  2010-03-19 Problem: I want to write an event which occurred in my application in the Microsoft Event Log on a LOCAL or on a REMOTE computer so I can easily control what happened using Microsoft Event Viewer. How do I proceed? Resolution: Please find the code is attached to this KB article. The COBOL program just launches the eventcreate command.  See that the command, in the code:Writes on the LOCAL Event LogWrites on a REMOTE event log (you’ll have to change the Remote System name & accreditations)Is called from  a MF Error Handler so the MF RTS error which occurred is written to Microsoft event log Attachments CobEventCreate.cbl Old KB# 30865

Is there a way to define a MLE field (Netexpress 5.1) to allow for Cyrillic input? (I think this is a question for Chris Glazier)------------------------------Georg JarzakChefRocket Forum Shared AccountCologne Germany------------------------------

These forums require a regular login. Specifically they offer the option of a 30 day login, which I always choose. However I am usually requested to login again after 4-5 days.

How can I install NetExpress 5.1 on Windows 11?  When I try I get an error message "Error 2878.  On the dialog PreReqs the control PreReqList has a possible value:  Either Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 1 or later, Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or later, Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6 or later, Microsoft Windows 2003 Ser ..." Do I need a new version of the software - and if so where do I get it from?  Or is there a way of cheating the system by copying a few files from an XP or Windows 7 PC onto the Windows 11 PC? I am assuming it is possible to run NetExpress 5.1 development IDE on Windows 11?

tengo el siguiente problema. Una aplicación desarrollada con NetExpress  que accede a una BD en SQL Server utilizando una conexión ODBC a través del SQL Server Native Client 11.0, y en Win10, accede sin problemas y no da error, y ejecuta las SELECT, sin ningún problema. Mientras que en otro PC con Win11 Versión 24H2, la misma aplicación,  y configurado el mismo acceso ODBC y la misma BD, la conexión a la misma la ejecuta correctamente, pero cuando el proceso ejecuta la primera sentencia SELECT, devuelve un SQL Code error -208.             EXEC SQL                   SELECT E.[nombre_em], E.[clave_em],                          E.[bd_em], E.niedi_em, E.pobl_em                   INTO :QNOMBRE-EM, :QCLAVE-EM, :QBD-EM ,:QNIEDI-EM,                        :QPOBL-EM                   FROM [tbEmpresas] E                   WHERE  E.[Cod_em] = :QCOD-EM           END-EXEC Cual puede ser el problema y como solucionarlo?  ------------------------------GREGORIO ARROYO GONZALEZGerenteRocket Forum Shar

Problem: Following is an example of the type of error that can occur at runtime when using a database such as Sybase that requires a pre-compiler.   Load error : file 'CSBCTXGLOBAL' error code: 173, pc=0, call=1, seg=0 173     Called program file not found in drive/directory In this instance the Sybase runtime files had only been compiled to .gnt Resolution: This problem is due the Sybase run-time not being loaded. We can get the Sybase run-time linked into COBOL program executable by compiling them to shared object (.so) files. Following is an example of a portion of a compile script. Originally the Sybase files were compiled using cob -ug ....This has been changed to compile them as shared objects - cob -zUg. Also, note the inclusion of the U switch - this tells the compiler that subprograms will be dynamically loaded and will cause a compiler error if not included. .......... # -ug compiles to gnt (

Hello Rocket Software community, I'm exploring ways to optimize the performance of my MultiValue applications, specifically using Rocket UniData, and I've come across an interesting strategy that involves utilizing Smart PCs. These systems are designed to integrate seamlessly with Rocket's MultiValue products, and I'm curious if anyone has had experience with them. From my initial research, Smart PCs offer more efficient processing and better scalability for resource-heavy applications. I'm particularly interested in how they can handle large datasets and provide a smoother user experience in real-time applications. Additionally, I'm wondering if anyone has integrated Smart PCs with UniData or UniVerse for enhanced data management capabilities. Has anyone here leveraged Smart PCs in a production environment? What challenges did you face, and were the performance improvements noticeable? I'd love to hear any tips or best practices that might help me make the most of this technology. Loo

My new host runs 5.14.0-362.18.1.el9_3.x86_64.  I am used to Server Express 5.1 running on an older OS. Can I use Server Express 9.0 on my new Oracle Linux host? Someone told me I can't and need to go with Visual Cobol Development HUB for my development and install Cobol Server for my runtime. Is that the best route to go? I will be installing both on the same host running Oracle Linux 9.3. The current user of Cobol on the older host just executes things via CLI.  No X-Windows. With Visual Cobol Development HUB and Cobol Server he can still do that correct? thanks!   Roy M.

Hi guys, we are using a client generate by imtkmake  using MICRO FOCUS SERVER EXPRESS 5.1 for pSeries running AIX installed on the customer machine that sometime failed with error code 0200. After various tests we identified what could be a possible cause, i.e. the size of the buffer containing the request was shorter than the request itself. We therefore extended the initial size that had been generated by imtkmake bringing it from the value 100000 to the value 150000 but the result did not change and we always get the error 02000. The counterparty receiving the request told us that data recevid it is truncated despite the size of the buffer that contains it. I couldn't find information on error 02000, what is the cause that generates it or where can I check to determine the cause?? Is it possible to extend the size of the buffers provided for requtest/respons? These are code use to made the call to the webservice :         &
