RE: [U2] openseq question
Thank you all. It is working now with the VOC pointer. It is much simpler now that I don't care what account I'm in. One final question. I have downloaded many of the pdfs ( UniBasic command ref., Using unidata, SB+ Solutions, ...) from the IBM site but where is this documented? Are there any books ( online or otherwise ) that a novice to unidata programming could refer to in cases like this? What I've looked at so far is more like a quick reference and doesn't really dive into detail. For example the difference handling absolute-path and VOC pointer with using the full path vs. path,rec-id approach.

[U2] Quick question on the udt catalog verb
Hi - just a quick one On Universe you can edit attributes 7 and 8 (i think) of the voc entry for CATALOG (and BASIC) to change the default behaviour. Can this be done in unidata as well ??

RE: [U2] UD: Calling Stored Procedures
REPOSTED FOR NON MEMBER Vinson Lee [EMAIL PROTECTED]
We're currently running Unidata 6.0 and I have been trying unsuccessfully to
call a Unidata subroutine (Stored procedure) via SQL. There isn't a whole
lot of documentation on how to call a stored procedure. I'm using the
following syntax: {CALL ROUTINE_NAME('','1234567')}
The name lookup subroutine's first parameter is an output field of a
person's name and the second parameter accepts the key value for a person. I
have also tried defining the subroutine using VSG although the VSG
documentation says this isn't necessary.
I've tried from the sql prompt (nothing happens) and the colon prompt
(syntax error). If I try using Microsoft Access to call the stored
procedure, I get the following message - ODBC call failed [Ardent][Unidata
ODBC Driver] Statement violates access rule:Connection is READ ONLY. (#0)
Has anyone successfully called stored procedures using SQL and what syntax
should be used?

Re: [U2] [UD] Calling Stored Procedures
I have successfully used a stored procedure on UniVerse (not UD). I
have only called the procedure from a JDBC connection. When I try using
the same statement at the console, I get 'Illegal verb CALL.' It
works fine from JDBC, though. *shrug*
You might try using a parameter marker (?) for your output parameter,
as in 'CALL ROUTINE_NAME(?,'1234567'). That is what I'm doing and what
I think the documentation indicates is correct. It's been a while since
I have looked at all of this, so my memory is a little fuzzy.

RE: [U2] openseq question
Gaaa! no...most of the files I've uploaded were measly little files. Tiny, little itty bitty files. Like specs on the wall small. Mostly forecast files where you just have 12 three to four char qty's for a couple thousand parts. And you gotta realize that people get used to their graphs. In the corporate world people like warm and fuzziesstuff that costs a lot of system resources and adds no value but makes them feel good. So they get to see that the upload is going to take ten minutes so off to the break room they go. And yesI can guarantee that the files will be small because the company doesn't exist any more ;) Warm and fuzzies. I had a morning report that I spent probably close to 1000 hours on, that would break out projections for the end of the month and compare it to budget and do crazy stuff like show how much more warehouses had to ship, or how much less to make the projection for the EOM.

It also kind of defeats the purpose of using a sequential file, since you're reading the whole thing in, then opening it again and reading through the entire file a second time with READSEQ. Since you've incurred the memory and performance hit to pull the whole thing into a variable, you might as well waltz through that variable to extract the lines an attribute at a time with REMOVE or READNEXT.

[U2] [uv] Something Strange happened today
UV 10.0.8, Solaris 8: We had a 'situation' in which I think UniVerse basically became constipated. Late this morning users reported that they were halted - they finished their last task and then... nothing. I immediately worried that the VOC file in our production account had locks... no such luck. I then checked the ./uvhome/errlog file and... nothing out of the ordinary. LIST.READU EVERY showed nothing out of the ordinary... except... occasional group locks on Group address zero and one. The more UniVerse decayed, the worse our system looked from UniVerse... at the worst, we had zero % idle, 95% kernel and 5% user activity. A combination of MASTER OFF commands from the UV account and from the UniAdmin GUI finally got all users off. We rebooted the system, and so far all appears to be OK. Because it appeared that users were halting when they hit the VOC and VOCLIB files, I feared a group lock on either... and this proved not to be the case. The only thing that was obviously strange was the Type 30 semaphore (nearly all of our files are dynamic). Collisions were at 10253 and retries (which, as I understand it, should be only slightly higher than the number in collisions) were at -808871239... I wonder if the minus sign means retries were being expressed in scientific notation... So, has anyone come across these symptoms before?

D_SCRATCH I use this to create temp files and other administrative type files which usually get deleted later. So... this sounds stupid even to me, but how can I create a static hashed file in this subdirectory?? CREATE.FILE does not seem to allow this. Actually, you can do it. It's a multi-level file you need. The VOC would then look like: 001 F 002 SCRATCH 003 D_SCRATCH 004 M 005 006 007 SUBFILE 008 SUBFILE You create a subfile in the directory using this command: CREATE.FILE SCRATCH,SUBFILE Now then, this works when the directory SCRATCH doesn't already exist, so I'm not sure how this will work on an existing file. Oh, one major caveat. Once you create the file, doing ED SCRATCH DATAITEM returns the message: Unable to open SCRATCH, non-existent file. So, there's a trade-off. I hope someone else on the list knows a way around this. One thing you could do is mkdir SCRATCH from within SCRATCH, then the command would be: ED SCRATCH,SCRATCH DATAITEM which might solve the problem for you. I think there can't be anything in the SCRATCH file other than other files. You don't need to do the OS part if you don't want. You can just do CREATE.FILE DATA SCRATCH,SCRATCH NOTE: When using multi-level files you always have to use the DATA keyword. I hope this helps.

Re: [U2] [UV] Create hashed file in subdirectory?
You would use CREATE.FILE DATA SCRATCH,your hashedfile name rest of create.file options Per the CREATE.FILE documentation, there can be no space between the filename and the datafile name, only a comma. Note that your VOC file entry for SCRATCH is now modified to indicate it is a multi-level data file (if that is the correct terminology anymore). You can now reference the hashed file like any other file, but using the SCRATCH,your hashedfile name identifier, ie. LIST SCRATCH,your hashedfile name F1 F2 F3... _ I reject your reality and substitute my own - Adam Savage Glenn M.

This is Universe 9.6.1.3 on Windows 2000. I have a type 19 file (in other words, a subdirectory) that looks like this in the VOC: 001.. F 002.. SCRATCH 003.. D_SCRATCH I use this to create temp files and other administrative type files which usually get deleted later. So... this sounds stupid even to me, but how can I create a static hashed file in this subdirectory?? CREATE.FILE does not seem to allow this.

[U2] UO.NET registry exception in method dealing with performance counters
REPOSTED FOR NON-MEMBER: Glenn Batson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Has anyone had experience with UO.NET throwing an exception related to what looks to be permission issues related to updating the registry for performance counters? Unfortunately the exception details were lost, but what I remember was Error Message: System.Security.SecurityException: Requested registry access not allowed. and the stack trace referenced something like a performance method (assuming performance counters). After doing some googling I found reference to ASP.NET and Windows EventLog registry updates and one option was to set the Application Pool for the website to have the identity of Local System versus Network Service. This made the exception go away and my application started running but the Local System setting is a huge security hole. I tried to obtain the exception again this morning by resetting the identity to Network Service but the problem did not come back (even after restarting IIS). So my speculation is that what ever needed to be updated on the registry was done and only needed to be done once. In doing a little research into my registry settings I found the following entries in a perflib folder with a key of Counter. This is also confirmation that something had to be updated in the registry, I'm just not sure when and if these were the entries it was having problems with. There were at the end of the string. UODOTNET Category 7442 Current # pooled connections 7444 Current # connection pools 7446 Total # failed connects 7448 Average Wait Time 7450 Average Wait Time Base What I'm looking for is the best way to handle this situation as we roll out our product to our clients. I hate to think setup application, change app pool identity, run application, change app pool identity back and then start application back up is the approach we'll have to take. We can create a custom identity but I think that will take a lot of work to figure out all the settings that identity will need. We can modify the registry but I need to know what needs to be modified. I'm hoping someone else has experienced this and has some suggestions. Finally a couple of other bits are: a. This only seemed to happen when connection pooling was activated. It was a late night so some of the details are fuzzy. b. This only happened on two systems. One system did not experience the problem. I'm not sure if it is the order in which things were installed or something like that. c. Our environment is UniData 7.1.0, UniObjects.Net 2.1.0.7137, C#/ASP.NET, and Windows 2003.

RE: [U2] [UV] Create hashed file in subdirectory?
You can create part files like this- CREATE.FILE DATA SCRATCH,MYHASHFILE 18,1,1 OK, this does not do exactly what I had in mind, but it DOES work and is totally interesting. When I executed that command, behind the scenes it made a subdirectory under SCRATCH named SCRATCH, and moved all of the existing files into the new subdirectory, so I had .\SCRATCH\SCRATCH, and then it put MYHASHFILE under SCRATCH. This was all transparent to universe, but the DOS app that also accesses that directory suddenly thought that all of it's files were gone!

RE: [U2] [uv] Something Strange happened today {Unclassified}
Mark, Since nobody else has replied, I'll put in my two cents worth ... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hennessey, Mark F. Sent: Friday, 6 January 2006 09:44 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] [UV] Something Strange happened today [snip] The more UniVerse decayed, the worse our system looked from UniVerse... at the worst, we had zero % idle, 95% kernel and 5% user activity. [snip] The only thing that was obviously strange was the Type 30 semaphore (nearly all of our files are dynamic). Collisions were at 10253 and retries (which, as I understand it, should be only slightly higher than the number in collisions) were at -808871239... I wonder if the minus sign means retries were being expressed in scientific notation... My guess would be that a negative number means that the 'retries' counter is being treated as an unsigned integer by the routine that increments it, and as a signed integer by the routine that reports it, so when the number gets so large that the top bit is set, this is seen as a negative sign: -808871239 is CFC99AB9 in hex. So the next question is: what the blazes would be making your TYPE30 semaphore get completely hammered? IIRC the TYPE30 semaphore is used to serialise access to control structures which are used every time a Dynamic file is opened or closed, and when a block splits or merges. So if a program is, perhaps in a called subroutine, opening and closing a Dynamic file very, very, very often (maybe for each record processed?), that might cause the symptoms. Someone's maybe put up some new code with a local file open/read/write/close in a subroutine, rather than opening in the host or into a common block file handle?? Hope this helps Mike So, has anyone come across these symptoms before?

Re: [U2] Converting number to word
I wish that this Check Print Amount routine were standard MV-issue instead
of home grown.
On that topic, there is a user exit for converting a number to a roman
numeral. For sales reports to the branch offices in Italy.

The universe basic manual does not appear to provide a conversion code as

[U2] [UV] Upgrading user count requires UV shutdown
We have purchased extra licences for our UV 10.0.16 system, and have discovered on our test system that we need to stop UniVerse in order to install them, otherwise we get an abnormal termination. Previously under 9.6 this could be done dynamically with all users logged on, and I am advised that under 10.1 this is also possible, but not under 10.0. Being a 24/7 installation this is a nuisance. Is this a known 'feature' of 10.0 ??
