| Check the pagination settings and particularly the values in the
first page printed and last page printed field. This may be set to
a value which is wrong. The default value is First page printed 1
LAst page printed 0.
Hope this helps.

3043.2 | Wrong default directory? | IOSG::MAURICE | Differently hirsute | Fri Jul 30 1993 17:37 | 7 |
| Does the user change his default directory by the SET_DEFAULT function
or by $set def in the subprocess? Check oaini.com and oaini.scp for
this user.

| And does he have access to another Format form (not the default)? Try
<form format
and make sure it comes from the Manager FLB.
(I'd guess that all the experts are on holiday, so the rest of us are just
trying anything we can at the moment!)

3043.4 | Some more suggestions... | IOSG::CHINNICK | gone walkabout | Fri Jul 30 1993 17:45 | 32 |

I think that you'll have to resort to low-level measures...
This could be something funny with a file like WPSDEF.WPL, so you might
try putting a new version of that into the users subdirectory. Editing
might show up such a problem but then again it might not. You could
also look at any .PRA (printer table) files which the user might have.
Try printing the document to destination TERMINAL or FILE and see if
that has any joy in reading and formatting the contents of the file.
Try making a copy of a document and see how that fares and on the copy
you could try converting it to ASCII EDT format or DT SV to send it to
a VMS file. I'd like to establish whether this is a formatter problem
or a text/compound data-set issue.
If that doesn't help, I'd try a $ SET WATCH FILE/CLASS=MAJOR in
DCL and run ALL-IN-1 and reproduce the problem. It should show you all
the files which are being opened or failing to open. Alternatively, you
could put Auditing on for the user concerned or for all user using
$ SET AUDIT/ALARM/ENABLE=FILE_ACCESS:FAILURE:ALL.
This might give you a clue as to what - if anything - can't be accessed
and why. Some failures may be legitimate because of the way in which
ALL-IN-1 works in some places (trys, fails and then uses elevated privs).
It might also be an idea to check resources such as process quotas and
disk space/disk quota available.
Other than that, I think you'll need some drastic measures. But lets
try the simple things first.

3043.5 | WPS-PLUS formatter | IOSG::NEWLAND | Richard Newland, IOSG, REO2-G/L2 | Mon Aug 02 1993 15:49 | 23 |
| I can see from the trace that ALL-IN-1 has detected that the document is
WPS-PLUS and called the WPS-PLUS formatter (the FORMAT function) to display
it. No output is being produced so the problem must be within the FORMAT
function.
Could you do the following:
1. Update the Handling of the document to 'WPSPLUS NO FMT' and Read it.
This will use the ASCII formatter instead of the WPS-PLUS formatter,
but will show if the RMS file can be accessed.
2. Select a WPS-PLUS document and issue the function:
<format oa$curdoc_filename,'tt:','vt100'
If this gives error messages what are they?
Also, does this user have any unusual logical names defined?

3043.6 | Crazy but good solution... | LEMAN::UELTSCHI | Isabelle necessary on a bicycle ? | Sun Aug 08 1993 23:50 | 25 |

Hi,
The problem you have at the moment happened to me several times
on different sites.
I solved it in a very strange way:
1) select the document
2) Print the document
3) Gold Expand (Gold A)
then you get the WPS-PLUS Formatter Print Settings Menu
4) RS Restore Print and Paragraph Numbering Settings: #0
5) Clear the number 0 (really clear it...)
6) Put a '0' and press Return to validate
7) SS Save Print and Paragraph Numbering Settings: #0
8) I am not sure now whether you then have to repeat
stages (5) and (6), but do it in any case, it can't do any
damage.
9) P Print and Save current settings.
This seems totally illogical and irrelevant with the problem
but it did the trick for me... Hope it will be of any use to
you.
Regards - Bernard U.

3043.7 | Another alternative cause ! | SIOG::GODWYER | | Wed Dec 08 1993 17:44 | 9 |
| Just incase Bernard's fix does not work for you I have also noticed
that the problem is related to the "first page printed" setting with
the Pagination Settings. This should be set to 1 and not 0 which it
might be for some documents.
Regards,
Gary.
