Excellent post, Michelle. With all of the "What the <insert expletive>?" problems in recent patches and releases, one has to wonder what passes for QA at BMC these days. What really blows my mind is that they seem to be getting worse, not better. Had they tested the Mid-Tier AT ALL, they would have caught this. Rick _____

We are also receiving the message below after upgrading from Mid-Tier 7.0.01 to 7.1.00 when displaying any entry in any form. "Cannot specify a diary field, a character field with unlimited length or maximum length over 255 bytes, or Status-History as a field in a get list description: <field name> (ARERR 241)" The Mid-Tier error message above is definitely a SHOWSTOPPER and will have no choice but to roll back to 7.0.01. Mid-November seems like a long time to wait on something like this. I'm finding it hard to believe that they actually released this Mid-Tier version to the public. Is everyone reporting this to BMC? I guess I will take Carey's advice and hope that there is a one-off private patch to address this. Has anyone received a patch or workaround to address this error?
