How do I recover from this error? %TAG-F-XREFINCMPL, The file containing symbol references is incomplete, file.ext. (The explanation may be slightly different, but the error identification abbreviation is correct.) I get this error when I use this DOCUMENT command: $ DOCUMENT /PROFILE=file.ext file.ext doctype printer /INDEX I have already processed the profile and have a .XREF file in my directory. Thanks for the help. <<Linda

This shows up if a previous pass was interrupted, either by an error or a ctrl/y or some other event. You will need to delete the incomplete version. This is also know as the XREF INtrepid Canadian Mounted PoLice error, cuz it gotcha. | |||||
689.2 | a "note" from Nelson Eddy | VAXUUM::KOHLBRENNER | Tue Jul 21 1987 10:12 | 18 | |
When the tag translator is loading the XREF file (from the previous execution) it checks to be sure that a "complete" file has been loaded. If the file is incomplete, it puts out the above message. Karl's reply (.1) supplies the user-action. The problem arises because the baselevel 7 and 8 versions of the tag translator did not create the new version of the XREF file in a way that was safe from a CTRL-Y interrupt. Version 1 of the tag translator creates the new XREF file as a temporary file and after closing it, renames it to XREF file type. (This process was made more complicated by the need to lock the existing version of the XREF file whenever it is being used so that other writers who are working on the same book will not try to update it simultaneously...) bill |
