Running jBase 4.1.6.7 on HP-UX B.11.31 I thought that I'd share an experience that I just had with the group. I'm not looking for solutions, and I will be passing this along through our VAR. I just thought that this experience might be worthwhile to share.
Anyway, I created a J4 file on one server, and then overwrote the Data Section with a copy of the file (also a J4) that I had on another server using scp. (We do not have jRFS established between these two particular servers and I needed a populated file) I forgot to transfer the permissions, though, and the Data Section ended up having owner- only permissions r+w. During testing, I discovered that when another user running my app attempted to open that Data Section with an OPEN statement, jBASE was indicating that the OPEN was succesful, but the file variable that was populated contained the handle to the Dictionary Section, and not the Data Section. I found it interesting that an I/O error didn't result when the app attempted to OPEN the file, and the Dict Section got opened instead. Once the permissions had been changed to grant access, all was well. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Please read the posting guidelines at: http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE/web/Posting%20Guidelines IMPORTANT: Type T24: at the start of the subject line for questions specific to Globus/T24 To post, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE?hl=en -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
