Kevin,

When we completed our migration from True64 to AIX we had the same problem. I had to delete all of the indexes and then rebuild them. First check to be sure that the index file is present where the VOC indicates it should be. If the file is there try deleting it at the system level first. Then you can copy another X_index file to its location. Use DELETE.INDEX on the new file and then you can use CREATE.INDEX and BUILD.INDEX to index the file.

Hello all,

I have a client that migrated from True64 to AIX a few weeks ago (I wasn't involved with the migration). They are currently having a problem with an index corruption on a static file. Unidata will not allow me to do a LIST, LIST.INDEX, DELETE.INDEX, or anything else I've tried on the file, giving me the error "Index: /path/X_filename has damaged index entries Open file error." I tried renaming the X_filename index file and repeating the above. The error messages now say "Index: open index file /path/X_filename error (2) Open file error." Lots of help. I've tried running guide_ndx on it, and it simply tells me it has errors. Lots more help.

Unidata version is 6.1.11 on AIX (uname says AIX 570 3 5 ....). Any suggestions on how to get rid of the index or retrieving the data from the file to build a new file/index would be greatly appreciated.

Kevin
