650.0. "Corrupted logfile " by RULLE::SJOBERG (Bernt Sjoberg @GOO) Thu Mar 16 1995 10:06


		Hello !!

	I have a customer with the same problem that's described in
	note 580 "EXTRACT gives ACCESS VIOLATION" I tried to delete all
	the logfile but after a week .times file got corrupted again.

$ ana/rms CONSOLE$ROOT:[LOG]dl4000.times

The analysis uncovered 2 errors.


	Is there any news about this problem ?

This IS NOT a corruption, it is a side effect of the way we write our data
to the files and how RMS handles it, basically we stream a sequence of bytes
to the file, there is never a terminator that RMS recognises placed in the
file so when you perform an analyze/rms you get this apparent error.

You will also find that the event and log file give this message.

Now, when you next get an ACCVIO from extract, could you please back up the
set of files giving the problem and let us know where they are, we will then
be able to reproduce and fix any problem in the code.

Cheers,
Phil
