A user of mine is having a problem with FOCUS v5.2.1 and RBD v3.0a.
Please note that we upgraded to this version of FOCUS last Thursday
night and his application ran as expected the next day. Here is his
problem that he sent me:
FOCUS PROGRAMS ACCESSING THE ATHENA RDB DATABASE HAVE BEEN ABORTING SINCE
THIS MORNING.
FIRST THE MESSAGE WAS:
>>>>JOININT CALLED TO READ DATA
(FOC1074) INVALID SUFFIX : POSTING/RDBee
NOW, THE MESSAGE IS:
>>>>JOINT CALLED TO READ DATA
(FOC1468) EXTERNAL FILE NOT FOUND FOR FILEDEF : POSTING
THESE SAME FOCUS PROGRAMS WERE FINE AS OF FRIDAY 5/19.
THE NOTES FILE (RUNTUF::IBI_FOCUS) HAS NO REFERENCE TO THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM.
PLEASE HELP
STAN
Can anybody help........

�(FOC1468) EXTERNAL FILE NOT FOUND FOR FILEDEF : POSTING Is POSTING using a logical in the filedef? We had this problem when moving from V5.2.1BETA to V5.2.1. Cindy (from IBI) called me back this week and said that the problem is that logicals require a colon(:). We had this: FILDEF MKTPREM DISK MKT_DB_FILE It should be this: FILDEF MKTPREM DISK MKT_DB_FILE: ^ The COLON is required. Steve | |||||
