Re: [U2] Help needed..
Hi, Personally, I would use OPENSEQ and READSEQ. Each READSEQ would read the next field in the record. The file needs to be a type 1 or type 19 for OPENSEQ. An example of this is: OPENSEQ FILE.NAME2, KEY.TXT TO SOURCE.FN ELSE STOP 'Unable to open ':KEY.TXT LOOP READSEQ ROW FROM SOURCE.FN ELSE EXIT ROW=CONVERT(CHAR(9),ATFM,ROW) WRITE ROW TO F.XXX,KEY REPEAT If the file isn't a type 1 or 19 then use the REMOVE function on the internal array. It is very fast. An example is: READ TXT.REC FROM F., KEY.TXT TXT.REC=TXT.REC LOOP REMOVE ROW FROM TXT.REC SETTING POS UNTIL ROW='' AND POS=0 ROW=CONVERT(CHAR(9),ATFM,ROW) WRITE ROW TO F.XXX,KEY REPEAT If you need to reprocess the array then add TXT.REC=TXT.REC and start the process again. The reason is that assigning the array to itself will reset the internal pointer REMOVE uses to keep track of where it is. One caveat, REMOVE goes to the next delimiter (field, value, subvalue or text mark) so you need to know the data you are working with.

Re: [U2] Help needed..
Note that if the file was built in Windows, it may have a CR:LF combination at the end of each line. Reading it in, PICK will cleanly distinguish one as a line delimiter, but you will still have the extra (unwanted) character at the end of ROW. I forget which one is which, but any time you read in a row from a TXT file, you will want to convert the unwanted character (I believe it is a CHAR(13)).

Re: [U2] Help needed..
That's interesting John, but the del *does* in fact *shift* the entire array forward each time. It really does :) You can traverse without re-scanning by using the SELECT or SELECTV to transform the entire contents *once* into a type of Get List (it works try it!) You can then use a READNEXT to extract each row, without the need to rescan from the beginning, since READNEXT has always maintainted a pointer to where it left off. It doesn't start at the front each time. -Original Message- From: Israel, John R. johnisr...@daytonsuperior.com To: 'U2 Users List' u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Tue, Apr 30, 2013 9:27 am Subject: Re: [U2] Help needed..

I quite agree, Brian. It's horrible. But it's what I had available at time I started this particular assignment. And I'm required to use a client-issued laptop, at first without administrator rights.

Re: [U2] Help in removing erroneous character from data file {Unclassified}
I can't help finding a certain delicious irony in seeing a UniVerse support request coming from someone who works for the former owner of the product. Gayathru, I expect that IBM India should still have some internal support people who know about UniVerse, or at least know where they've gone. Do you have a local Value Added Reseller or are you a direct support customer of Rocket Software? From your postings, it appears that you have a potentially badly corrupted file and are a little light on in-depth understanding of the platform. You also need to think about how did the bad data get there? The routine that puts the data into your UniVerse file may need amendment to better control the quality of the incoming data, if that is the seat of the problem. Just 'correcting' the apparently bad data may not solve the problem at all Good luck, I'm afraid you're going to need some Mike -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org On Behalf Of ggayat...@in.ibm.com Sent: Friday, 17 September 2010 8:39 p.m. To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] Help in removing erroneous character from data file Another application had problem processing the file that it had pulled from my application with the data.

Re: [U2] Help with encryption
Thanks SO MUCH!
OCONV(RESULT,'MX0C') works like a charm, but ICONV(RESULT,'MY') had no
effect (at least not in UD7.2, on Windows.)
I would have never mananaged to arrive at that conversion on my own. I
can't believe it's not just a matter of supplying some parameter in the
DIGEST function itself. Oh well, that's the crazy world of programming I
guess.
Thanks again.

Re: [U2] Help with encryption
Actually, you need to parse character by character:
NB.CS = LEN(HASHED.TEXT)
NEW.TEXT =
FOR THE.C = 1 TO NB.CS
NEW.TEXT := OCONV(HASHED.TEXT[THE.C,1],MX0C)
NEXT THE.C
Where HASHED.TEXT is your encrypted string. Took me by surprise too!

Hello all,
The code below:
RESULT = ''
STATUS = DIGEST('MD5','THIS IS A TEST',1,RESULT)
PRINT 'STATUS = ' : STATUS
PRINT 'RESULT = ' : OCONV(RESULT,'MX')
works fine, except... I keep getting binary data displayed, despite the
OCONV(RESULT,'MX')
Anyone have an idea how to turn the RESULT into a string of Hex characters?
Replies are much appreciated, thanks.

Re: [U2] Help with encryption
We run UD and have the following lines:
RET = DIGEST(SHA1, VALUE, 1, SHA1.RESULT)
VALUE = OCONV(SHA1.RESULT, HEX)
IF VALUE = '' THEN
VALUE = OCONV(SHA1.RESULT, MX)
END
Not sure if that helps you or not

Actually, you need to parse character by character:
NB.CS = LEN(HASHED.TEXT)
NEW.TEXT =
FOR THE.C = 1 TO NB.CS
NEW.TEXT := OCONV(HASHED.TEXT[THE.C,1],MX0C)
NEXT THE.C
Where HASHED.TEXT is your encrypted string. Took me by surprise too!

Re: [U2] Help with encryption
Using OCONV(RESULT,'MX0C') seems to work OK on Windows but I'm sure I had
problems with this on UV 10.2 on hp-ux. However, ICONV(RESULT,'MY') worked on
both.
Cheers,
Andy

Re: [U2] Help with encryption
The documentation on DIGEST() (in UniData) is as follows: DIGEST Syntax DIGEST(algorithm, data, dataLoc, result) Description The DIGEST function generates a message digest of supplied data. A message digest is the result of a one-way hash function (digest algorithm) performed on the message. Message digest has the unique properties that alight change in the input results in a significant difference in the resulting digest. Therefore, the probability of two different messages resulting in the same digest (collision) is very unlikely. It is also virtually impossible to reverse to the original message from a digest. Message digest is widely used for digital signatures and other purposes. The desired digest algorithm is specified in algorithm. UniData supports the MD5 (Message Digest 5, 128-bit) and SHA1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1, 160-bit) algorithms. You specify data and its location are with data and dataLoc, respectively. UniData puts the arrived digest into a dynamic array in result. Since digest is short and has a fixed length, it is always put into a string, and no file option is provided. The result can be in either binary or hex format. Parameters The following table describes each parameter of the syntax. Parameter. Description. algorithm A string containing the digest algorithm name (either b MD5b or b SHA1b ). dataData or the name of the file containing the data to be digested. dataLoc 1 - Data in a string 2 - Data in a file result A string to store the digest result. The following table describes the status of each return code. Return Code.Status 0 Success 1 Unsupported digest algorithm 2 The data file cannot be read 3 Message digest cannot be obtained 4 Invalid parametersdata. I can't be certain, but, Rex Gozar supplied a straightforward example of what you appear to be looking for.

RE: [U2] Help with encryption
From: Tom Whitmore We use gpg to provide a level of one-way encryption. It's not the best, but it is the only option we could find. Does Universe or Unidata have a way to link custom functions into the monitor? This would facilitate in-process execution of code directly from BASIC. For example in D3 we can link in MD5 encryption from an external C library and then run it using: success=%md5(valuein,valueout,options) or use common libraries like this: result=%curl(url,page,options) etc... Not many people use this functionality but the benefit is that a new process doesn't need to be created and destroyed on every execution, as is the case with something like this: EXECUTE SH -C gpg :PARAMS: CAPTURING OUT This functionality opens the door to all sorts of possibilities - allowing us to make use to a world full of function libraries when people here are always trying to reinvent the wheel with BASIC. Unfortunately because of geeky words like C, link, and monitor, this topic is hardly ever discussed.

RE: [U2] Help with sockets

Let's assume I'm writing a piece of client software to connect to a server using the basic socket calls simply dump data through a port and receive a response back. Let's also assume the server shuts down mid process and sends a FINACK packet to the client. From what I've seen it would appear the proper response is for the client to respond with an ACK and then a FINACK to close the connection down. This should all be handled by the network subsystem. When a socket is closed on side A, the connection is set to FIN-WAIT-1 state and a FIN segment is sent to side B. Side A can continue to receive data but it can not send. When side B receives the FIN segment it should also go to FIN-WAIT-1 and the subsystem would then mark the connection as closed. Any data remaining in the outgoing queue to side B will be sent to A along with an ACK for the closing of side B. Both addresses then go into TIME_WAIT. First off, is this the correct communication for shutdown in the event the server dies. If the server dies without sending a FIN to the other side then you can not perform a proper closing. The SO_REUSEADDR socket flag allows you to take over an existing address that may have been closed improperly. Otherwise you will have to wait until the subsystem clears the lingering sockets(seconds to minutes depending on your network kernel config), or in the case of Windows, you reboot. I'm not sure if the winsock issues regarding this were fixed in Vista, but I know that it still happens in XP. Secondly, does anyone know how the client software (written in BASIC) can be aware of the FINACK from the server? I tried the getsocketinformation() function run against the peer side but it just tells me the socket is open. It seems I need the software to know the server wants to shut down so that I can issue the closesocket() call. I'm assuming the closesocket() call is sending a FINACK packet. Is this true? You don't need to be aware of it. When you try to read or write, the socket function will tell you what the status of the handle is. Blocking mode changes the status codes a bit, so you'd have to read up on the socket calls and the different error codes for your platform. Anyone have any insight for me? - Josh --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ Glen Batchelor IT Director All-Spec Industries phone: (910) 332-0424 fax: (910) 763-5664 E-mail: webmas...@all-spec.com Web: http://www.all-spec.com Blog: http://blog.all-spec.com --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

RE: [U2] Help diagnosing mysterious database hangs (UV 10.1.25, HP-UX 11.11)
We recently had an issue on a Window 2003 server that would seem to hang just on one secession, but not always the same secession. It was not on any specific program, file, subsystem, just completely random. What we, think, we found is that it had recently been added to an additional domain and it seemed that the excess time was being taken by authenticating over the internet to that new domain. When we took it off of that domain the hangs stopped. Our hangs were more like 15,30, 60 second hangs, not minutes that I am aware of.

The problem has appeared in two different, unrelated sub-systems (no common tables are accessed by both). Of course, we first suspected locking issues, but we have not been able to find any evidence that this is the case. In most cases, only one process seems to be accessing the table(s) in question at the time of the problem. Any ideas on how to go about diagnosing this? Or thoughts as to what might be the problem?

Susan Joslyn wrote: On help with file pointers thanks to everyone who has pitched in. So far I'm no joy. FILEINFO doesn't return just a hard path. STATUS doesn't seem to return anything. Ls -I might do the trick on UNIX but I need a Windows solution, too (and first). I think I can do the peel back/parsing thing. Was hoping not to have to do that. As far as parsing is concerned, you just need to realise that every 'abc\..\' can just be removed. I'd run the FILEINFO, then convert '/\' to @FM:@FM in the result and then walk the resulting dynamic array. Everytime you hit a '..' you can back up one, delete two attributes and resume your walk from where you are. As to the ls -i idea on UNIX to sort out sym links, a better bet would be to start with FILEINFO as before, hack off the last bit of the path - the file - and then execute '(cd THE_PATH_BIT; /usr/bin/pwd)' and capture the output which will be the real path. Make sure to use a standalone pwd program though, not the shell built-in. Of course, the real nasty is that on Windows there is a sym link concept called a junction that does the same thing, and I can't think of a way to resolve that. Luckily very few people use them (there's a tool at sysinternals.com for creating, querying and deleting them).

RE: [U2] Help with File Pointers
Susan, The FILEINFO path probabily isn't a good recommendation in that it relies on the entry being their and it will take a lot more overhead. Here is a small basic program that will parse a relative path. 0001 x=../../this.path/that.path/BANANA 0002 h=/u1/uv/spool 0003 if x[1,1] ne / then x=h:/:x 0004 dim a(30) 0005 matparse a from x using / setting n 0006 i=0 0007 j=0 0008 loop while i n 0009 i+=1 0010 j+=1 0011 if a(i) eq .. then j=j-1 0012 else a(j)=a(i) 0013 repeat 0014 matbuild x from a,1,j using / 0015 print x Hope this is what you can use...

RE: [U2] Help with File Pointers
Just to add one more possible complication to your scenario. Depending on the software or the UNIX admin people, you may need to worry about symbolic links at a UNIX level. For example, lets say you are in Unidata in the directory /usr/ud/ROD. In the VOC for this directory is a file called RODS.FILE, where the VOC entry looked like: 1. D 2. RODS.FILE 3. D_RODS.FILE It would appear that this file lived in the current directory where the VOC is. But at a UNIX level, there could be a symbolic links that says: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root udtgrp 34 Mar 6 20:18 ROD.FILE - /usr/ud/SUSAN/RODS.FILE So RODS.FILE is really lives in another directory called SUSAN. The person doing this should have changed the VOC pointer. But a lot of times UNIX (Unidata phobic) types will move the file to keep a file system from filling up and create a symbolic link to where it lives now. Just thought I would throw that scenario out there just in case you had not thought about it. -Rod -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Susan Joslyn Sent: Monday, March 12, 2007 1:35 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Help with File Pointers Hi group.

But the output of FILEINFO IS THIS: FILE NAME = DEMO.DOTS, FILEINFO.PATH = C:\SJ\REALMS\PRC\..\PRC\PRCPROCESS FILE NAME = PRCPROCESS, FILEINFO.PATH = C:\SJ\REALMS\PRC\PRCPROCESS So you wouldn't be able to tell by comparing those that they were the same.

RE: [U2] Help with File Pointers
That's a pain. Have you dont the STATUS test to see if it points out the correct file path? I will guess it will produce the same results as FILEINFO, however am curious. We use nothing but Q-pointers for just this reason. This, however, brings me to what I think is an undocumented feature of uniVerse. In a past life, I setup and managed a test server for training clients. I found that uniVerse could operate very nicely without entering accounts into the UV.ACCOUNT file. In fact, if accounts were NOT entered into that system-wide file, uniVerse could be secured pretty nicely and the same product could be installed many times as long as one rule was followed: Each product installation had to be in the same directory. I.e. DBACCT where the database files are kept USRACCT where the users login to work ADMINACCT where the client admin controls whatever BPACCT where the source code the users run is kept If they were in /u1/TRAIN1 you could put another identical set in /u1/TRAIN2, etc. You would then create a login mechanism that allows users to login to a specific account depending on the classroom used, or some other criteria. Doing a LOGTO ADMINACCT from TRAIN1, for example, would work and never be confused with TRAIN2, etc. The admin (me in this case) could do CHDIR /u1/TRAIN2/ADMINACCT if wanted to change environments, however. Since the users can't get to TCL, and the menuing software used LOGTO, it wasn't a security risk in our case.

The issue we found was the server would time-out the connection but the connection object wasn't aware the link had gone and would still report itself as connected. Attempting to execute methods on the connection object would cause a problem. The simple fix was to up the time-out parameter and then run a very simple lightweight command to keep the connections alive.

RE: [U2] Help -- UD System hang...
So - generate a udtdiag dump when the problem is occuring and open a support case with your UniData support provider. (would be my next suggestion) 1) Log in to your system as 'root' 2) In the UNIX shell, cd to a directory that has as much as 200MB of available disk space. Note: For systems without the Recoverable File System (RFS) enabled, you may only need 50MB or so. The size of the dump depends on udtdconfig settings and the size of your logs and errlogs in $UDTBIN. 3) Decide on a name for the dump directory you want to create. This directory must not already exist in the directory you are now positioned in. Folks often construct a unique name involving the current date (e.g. udtdiagdump_080105). If you already have an IBM U2 Support case opened, you may want to use the case number. The choice is yours. The rest of the instructions use this example dump directory name. 4) Run the udtdiag script (using the example above): $UDTBIN/udtdiag udtdiagdump_080105 The script runs a series of commands that copy logs and capture the current state of UniData and your system environment. 5) Use the UNIX tar command to make a relative path tar image of the dump directory. For example: tar cvf udtdiagdump_080105.tar udtdiagdump_080105 6) Compress the tar image: compress udtdiagdump_080105.tar 7) Use ftp it to send this compressed tar image to IBM U2 Support: ftp testcase.boulder.ibm.com login as anonymous, use your email address as password cd /software/toibm/u2 bin put udtdiagdump_080105.tar.Z quit Note: If you move the compressed tar file to another system in order to access testcase.boulder.ibm.com, be sure to treat it as a binary file at every step. 8) Contact the appropriate IBM U2 support office (for your geography) where you have opened a support case and advise them of the name of the compressed tar file you just posted. Note: If you are creating a diagnostic dump because you are having a problem with UniData Replication, please create dumps on all systems involved in your replication setup - the publishing system and the subscribing system(s).

Re: [U2] Help with non functional printer
Louis GDI mode in UV is exactly that: it uses Windows device calls to render on the printer. These calls render text/graphics at a high/abstract level, leaving the specific implementation of e.g. Font handling to the device driver. The problem comes when you want to send sequences that are not part of the text, eg. PCL. In effect this is duplicating the work of the GDI itself - PCL is not directly supported by Windows GDI - even if the HP drivers map some GDI calls into PCL. Most GDI switches into graphics mode so escape sequences like PCL get lost OR interpreted as literal characters. Quite simply, Windows has no way of knowing that you want to pass these sequences through unmodified. The only way to force through PCL without interpretation is to use a generic/text only driver, if it will work with your printer. Unfortunately (increasingly) that isn't always the case. It isn't really a UV failing but a clash of models: Windows, unlike Unix, expects applications to play by its rules and that doesn't include sendiny raw control sequences to devices. AD - sort of: I've become frustrated by this and other spooler limits and so wrote an API that now produces PDF documents and Windows prints directly from UV bypassing the spooler.

RE: [U2] Help with non functional printer
The reported symptoms sounds as if you purchased a host-based printer...a printer with no inherent support for PCL. At this time UniVerse/Windows is not supporting these new printers. Warning.new host-based printers are hitting the main stream with attractive pricing.they are not compatible with PCL printing. These printers are ideal for Windows application printing ONLY. Resolution/Information: Attach the printer to another Windows based PC on the same network, share the printer and on the UniVerse system create a new local printer that points to the shared printer by name, \\computername\sharename. We have made these printers print this way through another PC. Printers purchased for printing must have inherent support for PCL code. Host-based printers today will not accept PCL code. Host-based printers rely on the computer's CPU to do the rasterization of the pages. Host-based printers are lower-cost printers that place a greater demand on the host processor than traditional printers. Traditional, non-host-based printers, accept a command language from the computer, such as PostScript and PCL, and perform the rasterization internally. They may be slightly more expensive but perform the rasterization function within the printer and therefore do not rely on the host system to do their work. A short list we have gathered so far... A list of non-supported host-based printers are HP LaserJet 1500 HP LaserJet 2600n HP LaserJet 3500 HP LaserJet 3550 Supported non-host based printers are HP Color LaserJet 3700 HP LaserJet 2430tn HP LaserJet 4250n HP LaserJet 4240n HP LaserJet 4610n Paul H. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Louis Windsor Sent: Sunday, May 21, 2006 11:10 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Help with non functional printer I have the Personal Edition (V10.1.11) installed on Windows XP Professional and had printing working on a printer on the printer port.

Re: [U2] help with multivalue and when
This is a classic MV situation that is over 25 years old. I don't know the platform and if it supports associated fields. But, traditionally, selects against 2 fields are often taken as 2 separate selects. The classic repair is to concatenate the requested pair into one dict item and select it as follows: ED DICT ORDER.LOG COMBO 002 ACTION:ACT.DATE or to the effect. Insure ACT.DATE is oconv'd D2/ Then you would select ORDER.LOG WITH COMBO = PCK10/15/05 My 1 cent. Mark Johnson P.S. Is this RESULTS.

Re: [U2] help with multivalue and when
WITH selects records. WHEN only suppresses display of multivalued fields that do not meet your selection criteria. UniVerse/SQL makes this clearer, since you must specify both the selection clause and the suppression clause. You can do this with LIST as well. LIST filename field_list WITH condition WHEN condition. AND WHEN doesn't accomplish anything. But you can use two WHEN phrases. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] Help!
Dana: It's now Sunday, so hopefully Wally Terhune and U2 support helped you get your system back up and healthy. Off the top of my head, you may run into issues with the following: You may have to re-catalog any programs that were in the global catalog table. Of course, determining what the programs are will also be a problem If there were any symbolic links in @UDTHOME, you will need to re-create them. These links are used with the LOGTO command. If you used them, you will need to re-build the uniapi server and database tables. It might be a good idea to search through your voc files for any references to @UDTHOME or unidata paths. They should still work, but I would check them anyway. Good luck!

RE: [U2] Help!
It's now Sunday, so hopefully Wally Terhune and U2 support helped you get your system back up and healthy. Greetings, Thanks to everyone for their support, moral and technical, throughout this ordeal. The U2 support folks were GREAT!, especially Paul Chang and Jim Abshire. I'm not out of the woods yet, but I'm in much better shape now than yesterday at this time! Some things that helped: I ran a sys_check after the first crash, which saved a lot of important information in a .html file Almost all of my Unidata install was on a separate disk which was unaffected by the crash After the second crash, we saw where we were headed and had everyone start preparing for the worst while the system was available And excellent support from both IBM (UniData) and HP (the OS) Some things I still have to figure out: Print queues seem to be set up correctly, but they're not printing (jobs hang in the queue) We're running on a 40-user 30-day temporary license. Gotta fix that Monday. Our normal login routines aren't working. (see below) And I have to rebuild a lot of OS startup files, etc Login procedure problem: We used to point user logins to a udt startup script by naming it as the shell in /etc/passwd. So, for example, a user name TEST would have as the default shell in /etc/password something like /unidata/local/bin/udtlogin. That script would set UDTBIN, UDTHOME, etc then cd to the unidata account directory, then start unidata. The advantage of this is that the user never gets to the Unix command prompt. When they leave Unidata, their session goes away. It doesn't work now for some reason. It never goes into Unidata. Instead the session starts up then ends abruptly. OK, back to work I go.

JOLT may be better than coffee for Sunday :-( -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dana Baron Sent: Saturday, 13 August 2005 10:17 PM To: U2-Users (E-mail) Subject: [U2] Help! Hi folks, Here's your worst nightmare come true: your production system crashes with a bad system disk. You find that the backups you've been doing every day don't backup the system, only the data. Now you have to get up and running - fast. Well, that's where I'm sitting right now. I think I'm going to need some help from UniData, but it may be hard to reach them on a Saturday so I thought I'd try the list. Here's what I have: There is a new hard disk in the system. I'm installing a clean OS (Tru64 Unix) right now. The data, including most of the Unidata install, is on a disk array and appears to be safe for now. After the OS install finishes, I need to get UniData up and running. One component I will be missing is the stuff in /usr/ud511, which includes udtconfig. Anything else I might need? Anyone know where I can get a good udtconfig for this? I have the UniData CD, but I don't want to re-install this unless I have to. Thanks in advance. I am a most embarrassed...
