[U2] Unidata 6.1 AIX: write error, errno = 9 on WRITESEQ
I have a bit of code that issues this command (basically) for logging: WRITESEQ MESSAGE APPEND ON F.SEQ ELSE NULL Yesterday, this program started throwing errors like this: In *...program...* at line 29 write error, errno = 9 The item size at this time is 11M, nowhere close to the 2G max size for this AIX platform. My question is, what is errno = 9? BTW, this problem persisted for about 2 hours and then just went away without any technical intervention. What would cause this? I'd really like to make sure it doesn't happen again! -Kevin http://www.PrecisOnline.com ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: [U2] What do you do with CallHTTP?
Doug: I believe what you're saying. You ought to believe many of us who point out that we're familiar with partners and competitors who put their enterprise .NET applications for small businesses on an SQL Server machine with a single CPU license for $3,500. They run the application on an IIS server and pay nothing for connectivity because it's all part of the MS framework. Clearly this is a different scenario from you and has a serious impact on smaller businesses attempting to host their application, although it appears to have no impact on your business.

Re: [U2] A new DML?
Jeff, I have not tried ctypes etc on a 64-bit platform, but if SWIG had issues, then I would not be surprised if ctypes also had some issues. Is there not a 64-bit intercall with 64-bit UniVerse? djm Jeffrey Butera wrote: On 2/4/2011 11:10 PM, DavidJMurray (mvdbs.com) wrote: Yes, it is possible to use intercall with Python using the ctypes module: http://mvdbs.com/2010/07/05/python-to-intercall/ We previously attempted to use SWIG to get python to call InterCall, but ran into issues with python (64 bit) and intercall (32 bit).

Re: [U2] What do you do with CallHTTP?
Hi Bill: Maybe there is a SQL Service license for 3,500. Maybe you can run U2 on a single connection pool with a single U2 user . We know that both statements are not true. The base software they purchased is 595.00 per user on SQL Server plus a multitude of other options. How much they forward to Microsoft for SQL Server I don't know. What I do know is they are using SQL version 2005. So they have limited maintenance on the database and have missed many releases, bug fixes, and security patches. And you need those on SQL Server. Because they were not running on our Web CRM and Distribution software for the last 3 years we lost maintenance and enhancement revenue, which we did not plow back into the product. So, it did have an impact. We had to fund that development internally. We spent hundreds of hours changing our interface to make it look relevant and new. We added additional options of skins. We spent countless hours improving our speed between Apache Tomcat and the client (browser). We added grid to grid drag and drop, so they can move data from one multi-value field to another. We added the ability to make different layouts of the grids such as 3 horizontal or 3 vertical. We added contextual menus to grids as well. These may not seem much but when we went in and demonstrated the software they had already seen years before, they did not recognized it. We got the oh wow factor and we closed the sale. As they say in the restaurant business: Presentation is everything. We need to learn that in the U2 world as well.

Re: [U2] Unidata 6.1 AIX: write error, errno = 9 on WRITESEQ
I'd like to rename this topic to when umask attacks. Come to find out the problem with this WRITESEQ was that the log record got created by a user with a umask of 022 and was being updated by a user with a umask of 007. This caused the log to be created with rw-r--r-- permissions and even though the two users were in the same group, there were no group write privs on the file. Just documenting the madness for posterity. -K ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
