4326.0. "EARS and MUPA and OA$STRING " by OASS::BURGESS_S () Fri Jul 08 1994 07:14


Morning,

Having fun with EARs after installing the MUPA. My customer uses EARS with 3.0
daily with very few problems. Thursday night she installed the MUP with no 
problems, then she tried to use EARs.

1) She could not create Review items.
Problem was that ALL-IN-1 needed to be relinked.

2) Now when they try and send a review item they get the error

%OA-LOGERROR, %OA-E-DBNODBFORM, Form OA$STRING is not in the library

I looked in the customers A1LINK.COM file, and I see that the OA$STRING and 
OA$PARSER DSAB should get linked into ALL-IN-1.
    
It looks like the OA$STRING DSAB is not getting linked into ALL-IN-1, so 
ALL-IN-1 thinks that it is a form when we try and use it.

<GET #TEMP=OA$STRING.LEN[#ADDR] gives the same error.

I first thought that the MUPA had replaced a file that EARS needed to work 
with ALL-IN-1. I looked at possible problem files in OA$BUILD. The customer 
does not get any errors with their link.

How can I make sure that the OA$STRING DSAB is linked into ALL-IN-1
correctly? This is a government production system. I tried tracing , set watch
no real clues.

Any ideas? I'm all Ears for any suggestions... Blah

thanks,
Sam Burgess

4326.1Multiple SITELINKs?IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer&#039;s ApprenticeFri Jul 08 1994 12:576
    Looks like the MUPA or something has replaced or superseded SITELINK
    with a version that doesn't have OASTRING in it. Look right through
    OA$BUILD to make that there aren't multiple copies, and that you do the
    link from the right place.

4326.2A1LINK.OPTIOSG::NEWLANDRichard Newland, IOSG, REO2-G/L2Fri Jul 08 1994 14:205
You might be able work out which A1LINK and SITELINK .COM files got used by
looking at the latest version of A1LINK.OPT.

4326.3SITELINK30.COM missing from OA$BUILD_LLVOASS::BURGESS_SFri Jul 08 1994 16:5540
    
    Thanks for the quick response... Here is the solution, this should be
    coming to your local Stars Database soon..
    
    
This is a subset of the contents of the A1LINK.OPT file created in
OA$BUILD_LLV after the relink of ALL-IN-1. The .OPT file should
contain the information about EARS that links in the OA$STRING DSAB.

.
.
!
! ALL-IN-1 EARS
!
! Include the OA$STRING DSAB, & ALL-IN-1 EARS OA$MAIN extensions
EARS$BUILD_SHARE:EARS/LIBRARY/INCLUDE= -
(OASTRING, EARS_OA_EXTENSIONS)

This .OPT file was created by A1LNKDRV.COM after I copied SITELIN30.COM
to OA$BUILD_LLV.

The SITELINK30.COM in OA$BUILD_LLV should contain the following 
EARS information:


$ IF F$SEARCH("EARS$BUILD:EARS_SITELINK.COM") .NES. ''''THEN -
 @EARS$BUILD:EARS_SITELINK.COM

When I search OA$LIB_SHARE:OA$MAIN.EXE for OA$STRING I find it.

    The problem was that there was not a SITELINK30.COM file in 
    OA$BUILD_LLV, so when we did the A1LNKDRV, we were not integrating
    in the OA$STRING DSAB.
    
    thanks,
    Sam
