Hi,I have migrated Uniface from 9.7 to 10.4 and I'm using a new linux server for Uniface 10.4Regarding our web application, when I access the URL, the web server requests the new linux server and trying to access the usp. But throwing an error in the webpage : "Security Error" - uspname.operationname cannot be executed from the browser. The urouter is running fine and the web asv log file (I don't see any error) is also created. Please note : This is an existing application and it works fine with Uniface 9.7. The same webserver was requesting the old linux server and the response looks fine in the web page. I changed the web.xml with new linux server and port.Am I missing something with Uniface 10.4 in the new linux server ?------------------------------Thanks,Satheesh MuthuGopal------------------------------

Rocket Uniface upgrades secure TLS connections to a minimum of TLS v1.2 Rocket Uniface has made the conscious decision of upgrading the internal network security, all TLS connections between server and client are upgraded to use TLS v1.2 only. This is considered the industry standard. Uniface always attempted to use TLS v1.2 and, if unavailable, fall back to older versions. Older versions of TLS, v1.0 and v1.1, are now considered unsafe, and are being gradually deprecated and removed from commercial software. We have chosen to deprecate this functionality in Uniface, starting from 10.4.02.012. If necessary you can still utilize these old protocols. There is also a new option to prevent TLS from renegotiating the connection. Read below to learn more. Background: What it TLS? TLS (Transport Layer Security) is a protocol that allows users to communicate privately. The goal of TLS is to encrypt the conversations between the client and server. By doing so, any malicious third parties are un

I am trying to use document.getelementbyid(elementid).focus to set the focus to a particular field of a particular occurrence. I am building the elementid from "ufld:my(new)field.<$entname>.<$modelname>:%%$instancename%%%.%%$curocc("<$entname>")%%%"This seems to be working okay on the web page version in chrome, and on the android studio emulation, but on my actual android phone, it gets the field correct, but the occurrence is wrong. Does anyone have any idea how I can identify the correct number to put at the end of the element id? Regards, Iain------------------------------Iain SharpHead of Technical ServicesPci Systems LtdSheffield GB------------------------------

Hi Version 10.4.02.005 working in client.We don't think this is possible but I am asking here in the hope that someone can point out the obvious thing we have missed. The scenario is a multi-occurrence entity painted on the form with lots of records retrieved.  We would like to know which of the painted occurrences the current occurrence is being displayed within. So, basically, we would like to know whether the current occurrence of, say, 20, is being displayed in the 5th painted occurrence or the 6th or 7th etc.Thanks in advance David------------------------------David HepworthUniface Community Edition Shared AccountUS------------------------------

I would like to be able to set up a 'default state'  for my IDE, so that when I have finished a task I can reset the open tabs to a base state and therefore 'close' all the objects I have been working on for that task. I could copy in and out the state zip file, but that would also reset the stored position in all the components, so if I re-open a recent one, it will not be focused on the latest changes. I have peered into the zip file, and I think that 'all' I need to do is build something that copies the MAIN file in (from one previously copied out), but I don't want to play too hard for fear of messing up my IDE. Is there such a function (reset the tabs to the specified list), and/or a breakdown of the files in the zip folder so I know if there are others I should be backing up for consistency? Regards, Iain------------------------------Iain SharpHead of Technical ServicesPci Systems LtdSheffield GB------------------------------

Hi Unifacers,I've developed a functionality to fileload/lfileload and analyze Uniface C/S log files; unfortunately log files, related to Uniface sessions still opened, cannot be read with Uniface itself.Question 1: is the lock applied from Uniface runtime "exclusive" type? Question(s)  2: being an old Unifacer I remember when file_load (old version!) when trying to load file in read-write mode was getting an error, it was switching to readonly mode and reading it, exactly like any text editor would do (notepad++ as an example). I am almost sure this was the file_load standard behaviour until U7. If this behaviour is changed lately could I ask the specific reason for it? Could it be considered a regression bug? Thanks in advance for any reply and happy 2023! Regards,Gianni ------------------------------Gianni Sandigliano IT------------------------------

Hi Unifacers,Uniface is distributed including Visual C/C++ runtime distributable on Microsoft platforms.As of today latest Uniface patches available are including:- U9.7.05.056: version 14.0.24225.1- U10.3.02.045: version 14.0.24225.1In the organization I am currently working with most of the working stations are controlled via WSUS and updates to Visual C/C++ are under full control but a portion of working station are NOT and follow their update configuration. Some of those PCs gets updated to latest Visual C/C++ runtime version, while some others remain with the original package installed (becoming older during times).Current situation from Microsoft is a continous upgrade because the C/C++ runtime is shared between latest 3 Visual Studio versions: 2015, 2017 and 2019. Considering also other applications are using same runtime distributable and could or could NOT upgrade it based on their updates this situation could go a little outside control. Luckily this piece of software is quit

HI, I've updated a uniface service to contain a new (public web) operation. I updated the wsdl using /sto and deleted and re-imported the wsdl signature using /sti. I've copied the wsdl files, and the new programs and signatures to my production environment in both a patch UAR and (when that failed) as individual files, and the calling program is installed on both the prod environment and a customer site. When calling the service internally (direct to the tomcat server), the new code works. When calling it from the customer site, which uses https routed through an IIS server, the uniface program returns a -59 error "WSDL Reader error create for operation not found",  Looking at the wsdl from a browser on the customer site shows the operation included in the wsdl. I've restarted the IIS site, and the tomcat server to (hopefully) remove cached files. Anyone any clues? Regards, Iain------------------------------Iain SharpHead of Technical ServicesPci Systems LtdSheffield GB---------------

Hi Unifacers, I've imported in Uniface definitions from a "type library". Everything went as expected: so far so good.In one signature imported one of the parameters to be used is defined into documentation as an integer bidimensional vector (an xy matrix) and it should physically start from position 0, like in many other low level languages.Question#1: Uniface automatic import of type library has defined this parameter as string / VT_VARIANT...is this correct?If NO: which data type and which physical type should be mapped to?Question#2: initially accepting string /VT_VARIANT data type as correct I have tried to use the signature passing to this parameter a Uniface list; supposing the matrix in my sample should be composed by 5 x 2 positions I've tried 6 different code solutions:- passing a single list composed from 5 x 2 = 10 positions, using base position 1 for object referred to- passing a list composed from 2 rows each with 5 positions, using base position 1 for object referred to-

Hello,  I've asked this question before, but the problem still persists, hence my question again: Does Uniface use implicitly transactions? And can it be turned off? Our DBA alerts us for the use of implicit transactions that degrade the performance of the application. Here's a piece of the sql logging:     In the source where this select statement occurs, there is no a commit or rollback. Is it necessary to do commit/rollback after select?Best regards,Erhan ------------------------------Erhan GunbulutSogeti Nederland B.V.------------------------------
