RE: [U2] New to UV/PICK, programming a banner
No offense, but look again. I didn't STOP but did a STOPM which prints a quoted message to standard out. One can compose the message in any format containing any information desired. Now I don't know if .NET will accept that, but I bet it does. We still use green-screen here. Karl quote who=Brian Leach Karl Just one problem with that technique. If you do this inside a subroutine (and I DO see people use STOP inside subroutines all too often) you're locking into a legacy terminal environment. Call that from e.g. .NET and the subroutine stops - but you don't get any message back as to why. It's one more thing to refactor when changing front end clients. For some interfaces it will even break the session. So the lesson is - and I'm not suggesting that anyone on this list would do this - don't use STOP (or even worse, ABORT) inside a subroutine. If you're opening files inside a subroutine, just RETURN with a suitable error message.

Karl Sorry but I think you missed the point. Any messages to green screen - including STOPM messages - aren't fed back to .NET or any other client environment over a UniObjects subroutine call. And on RedBack a STOP (of any description) also used to terminate the responder - not sure if it still does as I avoid that in my code. Hence my words of caution. Using STOP (or STOPM) inside a subroutine can have unintended consequences if someone later tries to call that subroutine from another environment.

Re: Spam:RE: [U2] New to UV/PICK, programming a banner
The way I was taught you use a STOP of any kind only when you really want a process to stop. Otherwise, use a RETURN when calling as a subroutine from a program or running a program from a PROC or Paragraph. I have seen programs stop a PROC by using STOP instead of RETURN. Can't remember what the circumstances were but it did happen.

I see from our archives that he posted here about 200 times in the past three years. Google says another 130 to CDP. A contributor. If the moderator will graciously allow just one Monty Python reference, I always hoped there'd be a thread between him and one or more other Bruces. Even if they weren't all Aussies, Mr. Nichol would have given the exchange authenticity. I don't recall it ever happened. Thank-you, Ross Ferris, for informing us.

[U2] DB.TOXML and XMAP problem
I'm using UV10.1 in PICK flavor and having trouble linking one TABLECLASSMAP to another to output a field from related file. I set up the XMAP using the XMLDB tool and everything works fine, no errors, except there is no output from TABLECLASSMAP M2 and M3 in the example below. By no output, I mean that the tags don't even print. Everything else is being output to XML exactly the way it is specified. If someone can point me in the right direction, explain how TableMap works and the relationship to RelatedTable or anything else, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks a bunch - -Scott Teixeira For the example, PHYSICIAN_CODE is in the PATIENTS file in attribute 1, which is the key to the PHYSICIANS file (@ID), and the physician first name and last name are in attributes 1 and 2 in the PHYSICIANS file.

RE: [U2] UV - Transaction Logging - Stale Transactions
Same kind of problem as with indexes.( I.e, the path to the index is part of the file header. If the primary data file is copied, the duplicate is still indexing on the old index until you use SET.INDEX to correct it.I think there's a UV enhancement request for allowing index pathnames to be relative instead of absolute path.) Which brings us to a need for a tool to verify possibly correct the log numbers in UV.TRANS and the UV.TRANS id (info buried in the file headers themselves.) There is a need for flexability, especially after some kind of disaster and file systems are being rebuilt. There is a enhancement request in the works on this too. cds -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Perry Taylor Sent: Monday, March 26, 2007 11:41 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] UV - Transaction Logging - Stale Transactions Sara, We had occasional instances of this in the past.

At the same time we implemented Transaction Logging. We have a dispersed network with users throughout the country at about 40 sites using VOIP for our data and voice transmission. These sessions do sometimes get dropped due to network glitches and users do sometimes terminate their sessions without logging off correctly. All has gone reasonably smoothly but we are finding that we sometimes get Stale Transactions. This means that all subsequent transaction logs are in the NeedSync state and the Available log files may be exhausted - at which stage everything stops. We have now got a large pool of log files available. Does anyone have any hints to investigate what is causing the Stale Transaction so that it can be corrected so all logs can be Released ready for reuse. We have found that on at least one occasion they did free themselves but we usually require a restart of UniVerse to get the process working again. We do have a scheduled restart at midnight while we obtain a snapshot. This is obviously releasing something we cannot see. It would be preferable to be able to remove the cause so a consistent set of logs can be created as these are also sent to our DR site. The manual indicates that when you re-enable transaction logging you will be asked if you wish to terminate pending (prepared) stale transactions. In our case we now have so many log files the process has not stopped. Due to our many dependant systems, internal and external, it is undesirable to Disable the Transaction Logging system during active use. This would be a last resort. In the latest episode there were no entries in the lock tables, no semaphores set and we cleaned out every process we could find that was not us or the various uv daemons.

RE: Spam:[U2] Universe I-descriptor help
Thanks everyone for the formula. I should have waited until the caffeine kicked in. But I'm still having problems, and this I am guessing is strictly a Universe I-descriptor question. Looks like the system is not treating things value by value on calculating INT. I am getting a non numeric data when required error. As soon as I get rid of INT, the I-descriptor is capable of using value by value properly. There is no INTS (just like there is a OCONVS etc).

Re: [U2] PRINTERS getting set up using Jet Direct/AIX
Daring? I think not... Just available First, create a driver using smit, or if you are very brave, edit /etc/qdaemon and manually add a printer there... Okay, use smit. Get to the spooler section, and add a new spooler. Create a remote printer by entering a queue name after you select a filtering/pre-filtering method. You may have to play with the those options to get the printer to work. Different printers need different massaging at the OS level to work appropriately. Put the IP address in, or the printer name if it's under your DNServer that way. Add the port as the name of the queue on the remote host. For Jetdirects, you can use 9100 or RAW1, 9101, RAW2, etc. Select the types of other things, such as page width/height, which is crucial if you are going to send PCL to the printer. Second, create a driver in AIX (I put mine in /u1/uvptr/drvrname) that has one of the following two lines: lp -dqueuename lpr -h -Pqueuename where queuename is from the first step. Naming conventions change from server to server, but I try to give mine a descriptive, yet short name. I.e.: crhp is short for the computer room HP... Make that file executable. I named mine things like crhp.drv. Enter uniVerse and create a device in the UV Admin menus. Give it an upper-case name similar to the unix queue name so you can track it easier. In the device line put /dev/null and and in the driver line put the path/name of the .drvr file you created and made executable. Enter through the rest and then test it. If it 'stair-steps' you will have to play with settings either in AIX, or uniVerse. I test mine in AIX first and if they don't stair-step there, I can adjust the uniVerse PTERM settings. Sometimes that doesn't work and I have to remove the AIX spooler entry and re-create it using one of the other filtering/pre-filtering options. It's hit and miss with these new printers and especially with the less expensive new printers as manufacturers are putting more of the 'driver' in software rather than onboard the printer.

Re: [U2] PRINTERS getting set up using Jet Direct/AIX
I totally agree with Karl, but for added flexibility Put the IP address in, or the printer name if it's under your DNServer that way. Add the port as the name of the queue on the remote host. For Jetdirects, you can use 9100 or RAW1, 9101, RAW2, etc. Don't use a static IP address here even if you aren't using DNS. Create an entry in /etc/hosts so that you can change the IP address of your printer/move it to a different print server without having to reconfigure your AIX queue (you can just change the IP address in the hosts file).

I wish to print documents out of Universe to this printer. I Cannot ping the Ip of the print server let alone see the printer/print server on the network They cannot print out of Universe to the attached printer although they can print Microsoft documents because the terminal services sets up a default printer for each user each time you log on. It does for me too. Universe is running on Windows 2003. Physical printer is 600 kms away from Universe server. Anyone had similar situation and if so how was it resolved. Thanks Kevin...
