3514.0. "Reproducible LIB$GET_VM failure" by WAYOUT::CLARKE () Tue Nov 09 1993 16:23

ALL-IN-1 V3.0-1

$alli/noinit
$Enter CMD:mail initialize (or mail mti_fetch_remote etc...)
%OA-F-VMGETFATAL, LIB$GET_VM failure, 280 bytes at 00000000 - IN OADSA IN ROUTIN
E OA$DSA_COPY_PROTOTYPE

I appreciate that you would normaly call OA$MAIL_INITIALIZE previously, but
this worked in V2.4 and the error is a bit unfriendly.

My customer would like an SPR raised on this, can anybody confirm if it is likely
to be fixed in any PFR's so that we may avoid this.

Thanks

3514.1Do a oa$ini_init first!STKOFF::MARTENSSONLOM - SwedenWed Nov 10 1993 15:4312
    Aston,
    
    Maybee a more friendly message to the user could be in place.
    
    You can't init mail before you know ie the data in the
    profil for this user!
    
    What you should do is add an extra command before "mail init":
    
    $allin1/noinit
    oa$ini_init
    mail init

Thanks for the reply.

OA$INI_INITIALIZE is what I mean't in my base note - I must have made up 
OA$MAIL_INITIALIZE..

SPR on its way.

    Of course it's possible that you might get a "that's the way it works"
    answer, or (if it's not there already) a line in the APR that says that
    you must do OA$INI_INIT befor doing any mail functions.
    
    Not taking away your inalienable right to SPR it :-)
