Subject: [U2] resolving udt error message
Can anyone clue me in on how to resolve this error (step-by-step)?
When going to the command prompt and starting udt I receive the
following error:
UniData Release 5.1 Build: (2189)
Copyright (C) Ardent Software, Inc. (USA) 1998
All rights reserved.
Current UniData home is e:\unidata\ud51\.
Current working directory is E:\JENKON\SV\AMI_SQL.
Warning: global CTLGTB file path(VOC pointer file) is different than
current
Unidata home path, cannot global CATALOG/MAP in this udt session.
:
This is an install of an existing system onto new servers and I am
trying to clear up the command line issues.
Thanks for any insight you may have on this.

Steven,
At ECL (the colon prompt you show above) after you get that error message,
type
CT VOC CTLGTB, and compare the path in the line after the line with a single
F (which will be something like \unidata\ud51\sys\CTLGTB - you want to look
at everything up to the \sys\CTLGTB) to the path in the message above
(e:\unidata\ud51\). I have found that omitting the drive letter, even if it
technically points to the same place, will result in that error message.
Example: CT VOC CTLGTB
CTLGTB:
F
\unidata\ud51\sys\CTLGTB
\unidata\ud51\sys\D_CTLGTB
The system will pull \unidata\ud51, which, when compared to the UDTHOME
e:\unidata\ud51, will result in that error message.
To change the VOC pointer for CTLGTB, you can AE VOC CTLGTB, hit enter twice
to get to line 2, then R2/whatever-the-wrong-path-is/@UDTHOME (eg
R2/unidata\ud51/@UDTHOME) After that, you should see something on line 2
like @UDTHOME\sys\CTLGTB and line 3 should be @UDTHOME\sys\D_CTLGTB - type
FI to save it, and then type LOGIN to go through the login procedure again
and verify that you do not get the error.
The advantage of using @UDTHOME in the path is that you will never have to
fix the path in the file pointer again if you move machines - it will use
the @UDTHOME to pull in the matching path.
