I just encountered a very strange problem: The customer has all the accounts as restricted and these accounts access ALL-IN-1 from within a menu routine which they wrote. This routine activates a command procedure which issues a normal ALLIN1 command. All the users with the exception of one user have no problem accessing ALL-IN-1. This one particular user receives "Error opening file cabinet" when accessing ALL-IN-1 via the routine. If the user does a $SHO LOG OAUSER at this point it points to the same directory as sys$login and NOT the user's A1 directory. If the RESTRICTED flag is removed and the user accesses ALL-IN-1 from DCL then everything is fine and OAUSER correctly points to the user's A1 directory. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this strange behavior? Thanks, Cb.

| 585.1 | Insufficient Dynamic Memory ... | TAV02::CHAIM | Semper ubi Sub ubi ..... | Wed Apr 29 1992 09:51 | 19 |
We got to the bottom of this problem after MANY MANY hours (both ours and the customers) of investigation. This particular user had an extraordinary large number of process logical names defined and at some point the dynamic memory was ALMOST exhausted, leaving enough for image activation, but that's about all. At some point during the actual initialization which ALL-IN-1 does, the dynamic memory DID become exhausted. Unfortunately ALL-IN-1 does NOT give any error message for this. Obviously, the initialization did not complete successfully and thus the process is left with either undefined or incorrectly defined logicals. At this point the error messages that are given are absolutely meaningless at best and totally misleading at worst. I believe the customer wants to SPR this. Thanks, Cb. | |||||
