1096.0. "Acknowledge event --> hang forever." by 54831::MICHIELS (http://brsadv.bro.dec.com/cockpit/) Wed Nov 15 1995 01:33

Somebody who has seen this before?

PCM for OpenVMS VAX, V1.6-ECO1
Multiline window.

You acknowledge an event.
The acknowledge string does not appear. In stead a little watch appears,
and stays there forever.
No more new events are added to the multi-line window.
You can not exit the window, nor you can close it.

You have to kill the process that displays the multi-line window to 
get rid of the window, and to make it possible that a new window in created
on you X-display at the next new event.

I noticed this problem now several times at the same customer site.

Any suggestions?


Thanks and regards,

Johan

I have seen this a couple of times. I have the feeling that it might be
related to resource problems on the display server. I have seen it in
configurations where VXT2000s were doing eventlist displays. The problem
went away when more memory was added to these VXTs and modifications
described in note 664 were made..

    Peter,
    
    That customer uses indeed VXT2000s.
    I'll visit him again next week, and I'll do some checks. 
    
    Thanks for the input. Very useful.

Hello,

Today, the customer came back with the problem. 
When problem occured, 4mb were still free. (the vxt has a total of 10mb)
The watch disappears when he moves the mouse pointer to another screen area, starting a new session is not a
problem. So, I think that we may forget the memory lack....

Customer is currently running version 1.6-110

Any idea?

Best regards,

Alain.

Hello,

After they installed NSI_111 problem appeared directly on all vxt.(worse as before)

Finally, we tried the CSC_116 and this solved the problem.
