Work on a enterprise modified version of SLES11.4 (64-bit with enough 32-bit 'stuff' to allow 32-bit applications to run).  Am trying to upgrade the Oracle client from 11c to 12g.  The application is a 32-bit application.  I have the 32-bit Oracle client software installed.   When I run the makefile provided by the vendor to build the custom RTE, the process dies with an error stating that 'fstat' is a hidden object.  The system has the proper libc.so file to make 'fstat' (and a bunch of other stuff) visable.After using strace, I have noticed that 'make' is trying to use the 64-bit linker.  I don't know if this is the source of the problem, or a result of the real problem.   All efforts to force 'make' to use the 32-bit linker result in 'cob' blowing up with an 'invalid option' error (the invalid option is -m from -m32).If Blair McDonald  (@Blair) is available, he would know wh

Problem Is it possible to stop (break out of) the ZOOM function in character animation? Resolution Use the break key “CTRL C” to stop a ZOOM function and break out of it. It is not documented but has already been changed for the next release in Server Express 5.1 Wrappack 18. Documentation will show this: "You can break out of Zoom mode using the Break key combination".

Problem: Is there a way of removing the "Application Completed" dialog box. Resolution: There are three ways to "remove" the application completed message box: 1) You can run/LINK your programs as a character application rather than graphical. 2) You can clear the screen prior to the STOP RUN i.e.    display spaces at 0101. 3) On the "Settings" option of the application window you can check "Disable    Termination Prompt". The message box is created so that a user could read any information on the screen prior to the application completing and the window disappearing. Old KB# 7062

Hi GuysI need to connect to a websocket, I am using NetExpress 5.1, is there any embedded code withing the COBOL 5.1 for this, or do I have to call an external API (of some kind) from my COBOL program to support this function.I think thi smay be available in Visual COBOL, just want to know if there is anything in 5.1.Many ThanksRichard

Hi MichaelMicro Focus 5.1 ServerSUN Solaris 2.11I found the answer to this problem, in the Micro Focus install directory etc, there is a file called cob.cfg, in here you can define the C compiler to use in line.# C compiler and optioncccmd=${CC:-cc}  change to -gccRegardsRichard  

Hi GuysI have a question regarding the C compiler.The customer has removed the original C compiler and replaced it with a ‘gcc’ compiler, but when I compile it is looking for the original ‘CC’.Where in COBOL Is the definition of the C compiler to use.Many ThanksRichard

Listview works very fine to display a list. Is there also a procedure to modify/capture directly one field within the List? I think about something similar to a spreadsheet where you can modify directly the contents of one cell and not the whole row. In the lviewctl appear lots of  DB-Call-Function, but no one to fill only one field (cell) of the whole list. Any help?  I want to Change only the marked cell.  Or is the only solutiuon copy the whole row to individual entry fields? Thanks for any help.

Hi, Currently I am using NetExpress 5.1 under Windows 7 and able to compile and debug cobol programs successfully in the project work. Now I got a new laptop with Windows 10 and i installed NetExpress 5.1 (automatically it installs 32 bit) and Wrappack 10 in Windows 10 machine.I am able to compile the cobol programs successfully. But when i start to debug it by using my test run in windows 10, the main program is not popping out (displayed) in the Net Express screen for debugging but the programs runs successfully in the background and output is looking fine. I am not sure why the main cobol program is not invoked through the debugger ?But the same test run is running as expected in Windows 7 machine and i am able to debug the main program successfully. Could any one help me regarding my question or give some light where can i find the error or info, why the program is not invoked in the debugger? Note: 1) I am aware that Netexpress 5.1 is not compatible with Windows 10, but reading th

I am tasked with setting up an Enterprise Server to run a Micro Focus COBOL application locally and hopefully get debugging enabled.  I exported a working server from the development server and imported into my local ES.  I changed the listeners by using the IP Address from my local computer - but the three listeners still show the IP Address of the development server.  Do I individually change each of the 3 listeners as well?

I am trying to add my serial number to my account on supportline.microfocus.com, because I don't have Server 5.1 in my download section here, and I need download updates. I have this Licence card But what part should I use as serial number? I try to use Serial Number and Licence Number from this cards, but in both cases, I got message, that serial number wasn't found. Or updates for Server 5.1 are downloaded somehow another way? In my download section I have only Net Express 5.1. And I have install CD for Server 5.1 wrap pack 6, but I need wrap pack 10 (same as I have on Net Express). Thanks for any help.#server5.1#netexpress#COBOL

Problem: When building or rebuilding a project, the following error appears: ERROR: (1) Cannot open file : <project_name>_RTECFG.OBJ Resolution: The file _RTECFG.OBJ contains the settings made by the user in the Net Express IDE, in Project Properties > Application. The above error may appear because this file is missing or not accessible.   If access to these settings is required to build the application, perform a Rebuild All. The file is newly generated on a Rebuild All, but not on a simple rebuild.   If access to these settings is not required anymore, the file _RTECFG.OBJ has to be deleted: Go to Project > Build Settings or right-click on the project's EXE on the left site of the project's view and select Build Settings. On the Link tab, change the category from General to Advanced. The _RTECFG.OBJ file is found in the "Link with these OBJs:” field. If the file is deleted here, the linker will no longer report a missing file.  NOTE: The f

Actually running the command : imtkmake -genclientwsdl clientwsdl=SRVGestoreSITAv02_SerMed_SRVGestoreSITAv02.wsdl defaultstringsize=500 no generation of client proxy is made and the only message from the above command simply return : The generation of the COBOL client from WSDL failed we do not have any other message from imtkmake to understand the reason of the failure. Someone have any suggestion on how to understand why imtkmake fail to generate the client proxy ? Thank in advance.   I've attach the zipped version of the wsdl that I'm using. WSDL_5F00_FILE.zip
