872.0. "FCVR V3.0" by KAOFS::R_OBAS () Mon Jun 15 1992 23:04

    Hello,
       I have a logfile of the TRU ALL-IN-1 V3.0 that keeps failing.
    The only error that shows up does not give much information.
     
     ** ALL-IN-1 File Cabinet Verification and Repair Program **
    
    V3.0-13
    Could not open department list file
      ?Can't find file or account.
     
       I had previous encounter with 2.3 and 2.4 with the error
         ?Can't find file or account, but never DEPARTMENT LIST FILE.
     Does anyone know what this Department List file is that it's 
     looking for ?
    
    Thanks
    ricardo

    When scheduling TRU there is a scrolled region to be filled in with a
    list of departments. A file should be created for this scrolled region
    in OA$ADMIN. This error indicates that it has not.
    
    Could you inspect the schedule record. Bring up form SM_FCVR_SCHEDULE
    and find the record that matches the date (it's keyed off an NBS date).
    In the field labelled OAFCVR_PRV_SUB_FILE_DEPART should be the
    filename.
    
    1. If that's filled in with a filename can you check that the file
       exists.
    
    2. If it's blank can you check that OA$ADMIN is defined.
    
    Cheers

872.3A similar problem?TIMMII::RDAVIESAn expert AmateurThu Jun 18 1992 14:5433
    This sounds a bit like the one I had in february that's in the

    To close this down, Andy Chaplin came round and together we found it
    was trying to get data from USER and DEPARTMENT files that weren't
    there.
    
    Turns out, on the TRU form, if you TAB through the  USER and DEPARTMENT
    fileds then the files are created, empty, and the flags are set in the
    schedule.
    
    There's some missmatch in the FCVR processes that schedule and run the
    jobs such that the master process correctly detects the empty file and
    turns off it's own sub-list checking.  Unfortunately the slave
    processes don't know this and expect to find the temporary KR file.
    
    
    Andy has logged it as a bug and identified the fix.
    
    In the meantime, the workaround for anyone who doesn't select USER or
    DEPARTMENT is to use <next screen> when you get to REPAIR Y/N field to
    bypass the fields, which then doesn't set the flags and create the
    empty files.

872.4Must be a different problem.IOSG::CHAPLINAndy ChaplinWed Jun 24 1992 16:5812
    It does sound similar to the problem Richard found, but it seems that
    the fix for that problem made it into V3.0.

    So as Stuart says in .1 the problem must be with the schedule record 
    pointing to a non-existant file.  Maybe you don't have the right
    scheduling forms in place.  Do you have any customisations that
    might be affecting the FCVR scheduling - such as SYSTOOL?  Or was this
    a field test site by any chance and you have some old forms still in
    there?

    Cheers,
    Andy
