69.0. "Trace and ZAP.MSG prob." by HORUS::MAINTAINER (Try and imagine ...) Mon Feb 05 1990 14:20

    I have two customers having problems with ZAP 4.0.
    
    1) The customer has ZAP running on a two node cluster of 6210's, with
       VMS 5.2. When the TRACE option is set to FALSE nothing happens. None
       of the parent or sub-processes are affected, even when the max idle
       time has expired. 
    
    2) The customer has modified the ZAP.MSG file adding custom text to it.
       When the modified file is used by ZAP a file size error is returned. 
       Can the ZAP.MSG file be modified and if so what is the maximum TEXT 
       length and file size?

    It appears that the Assets program accidentally released a field test
    version of ZAP instead of the final version.  The correct version is
    being submitted again.
    
    The correct version was retested and TRACEBACK (disabled and enabled)
    works correctly on VMS V5.1 and V5.2.  In addition, the array error
    in the last note was also corrected in the final version (this was
    caused by the terminal name field being increased from 7 to 8
    characters.  The field test released did not work correctly under
    versions of VMS prior to V5.2.
    
    To determine which version you are running, check the ZAP.LOG file. 
    ZAP will display its actual version when it starts.  The field test
    will not work under VMS V5.0,5.1.  However, under VMS 5.2+ it appears
    that only the TRACEBACK (disabled) option has problems.
