2246.0. "OA-W-ARCERROR when using the PAT option." by KERNEL::LOAT (Ahead groove factor 5! Yeah!) Thu Feb 11 1993 10:30

    
    VMS 5.5 ALL-IN-1 2.4
    
    A customer is trying to prepare an account for transfer, and he cannot
    get this to run successfully.
    
    When he runs the PAT option, the error messages produced in the log
    file (one for each document in the file cabinet) say:
    
    "OA-W-ARCERROR, Error archiving document from users file cabinet."
    
    This must come from the call ARCHIVE_DOCUMENT. Can anyone enlighten me
    about what causes this error?
    
    Thanx
    
    Steve.

2246.1	OA$TRANSFER?	IOSG::TALLETT	Gimmee an Alpha colour notebook...	`Thu Feb 11 1993 19:56`	14
	Well I suppose this one's up to me! :-) Check that the MANAGER account can write to OA$TRANSFER: and that the logical is okay and the disk is okay. Check that the documents in the user's filecab really exist and that if you NEWDIR to the account, you can read the documents. Also be careful when re-running PAT as it updates (read "messes up") the filecab whilst running and doesn't put it back if it gets a failure in V2.4 (its better in V3.0) Regards, Paul

	Hi Paul. Thanx for replying! The MANAGER account can write to OA$TRANSFER: successfully. The logical is defined correctly, and the disk is definitely okay (it's their system disk) They can log into the users account and see/read/edit their documents okay. Any more ideas? Steve.
2246.3	ARCHIVE_SETS_DATA?	SAHQ::WOLFE	John Wolfe - (404)-924-6463	`Fri Feb 12 1993 13:05`	5
	We saw one case where this was caused by the ARCHIVE_SET_DATA.DAT file being corrupt? John
2246.4		KERNEL::LOAT	Ahead groove factor 5! Yeah!	`Mon Feb 15 1993 10:45`	10
	Don't think there's any corruption in that file. They can go into MAA, and all of the details are correct. A DIR/FULL is okay, and the users can use ADN to archive documents okay. Ideas? Steve.
