Problem:
In Server Express, when a record is read with lock and then within the same process another attempt is made to read the record the extended file status code 9/068 will be returned.
This would typically happen where a program reads a record with lock, then calls another porgram and attempts to read the same record. In Object COBOL this lock is ignored and a file status of '00' is returned but in Server Express 9/068 is returned. This only happens if the access takes place within the one process. Normal record locking applies to both products for for records lockded in another process.
Resolution:
It may be that you want Server Express to behave the same as Object COBOL Developer Suite, particularly in the case of legacy applications where the activation of the record lock is not expected. To disable the record lock and have a file status of '00' returned on the read of a record that has previously been read with lock within the same process set the following run time tunable:
intra_process_record_locking=FALSE
