If you *do* use CLEARCOMMON you have to be alert to gremlins as well. LOGTO is not expecting to have to reinitialize the system and so probably doesn't. You need to review what the Login process is doing as well. You may end up wiping out control information such as the user's port, name, login time, functions they can and can't do, menu access, default printer, and so on and so forth.
All depends on how complex the login processor has become at your site. Some sites don't do a darn thing. Some have thousands of lines of code at Login. Some of which set common (read "environment") variables, that you *don't want* to clear, or at least that you want to reset if you do clear them. -----Original Message----- From: Bill Brutzman <bi...@hkmetalcraft.com> To: U2 Users List <u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org> Sent: Thu, Apr 12, 2012 11:52 am Subject: Re: [U2] COMMON Size MisMatch Eating my own dog food...

We had both a Test and a Prod environment on the same box, and xperienced problems when enhanced code in Test was being staged for romotion into Prod. Executing a program in Test that had changes to ts COMMON, and then logging into Prod resulted in the size mismatch rror when running the unchanged program. Our solution was to insert "CLEARCOMMON" in the LOGIN paragraphs.
