29.1 | Trap thru 4. | SEDSWS::WATT | It's life Jim, but not as we know it. | Fri Apr 08 1988 06:26 | 9 |
| Did you set kermit up for a binary file transfer ?
The command is (prompt)Kermit 32> set file type binary
If you don't do this then the file will be corrupt and you will
get the TOS error 35. I believe this is a get out of jail error,
a bit like TRAP thru 4 on the PDP's or Invalid exception whilst
above AST delivery, in other words it covers a lot of sins.

29.2 | I'll give another try | CSOA1::FISHER | Al Fisher | Fri Apr 08 1988 09:52 | 13 |
| On the VAX I did do a 'set file type binary'.
I use PC/Intercomm on the ST and I set it up as 'kermit image'.
I've transfered a lot of files with this combination of set ups.
I'll give it another try, but I think I'll get the same results.
I'll let you know....

29.3 | Corrupted Software | PEOVAX::LEWIS | RONCO makes the best board popper... | Fri Apr 08 1988 10:28 | 9 |
| I had the same type of problem when I first got my ST and had someone
send me a copy of UNITERM which supports file transfers. I could
not copy and de-arc anything without getting TOS Error #35. The
system would seem to be doing the correct things (no errors during
transfer). To make a long story short, I used my VT52 emulator
along with kermit and everything worked o.k. I later copied a new
version of UNITERM.ARC and de-arced it and to this day all is well.

29.4 | Wrong file type ?? | SEDSWS::WATT | It's life Jim, but not as we know it. | Fri Apr 08 1988 11:46 | 7 |
| Al,
It's possible that the file is uue encoded, I remember a while back
having the same problem, and found out that the file was not really
a .PRG but a .UUE. I also use PC/Intercom and have never had any
file corruptions using it (yet). Best of luck
Peter.

29.5 | Might be my fault, I'll check | AJA::WALLACE | | Fri Apr 08 1988 13:27 | 8 |
| It definitly is NOT UUEncoded. I will check out the problem tonight
and make sure that I get GOOD copy uploaded. I'll let you know
when I'm done.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Next time I will verify any uploads
before I post them.

29.6 | SHEET files ok now | MAST::WALLACE | | Mon Apr 11 1988 12:52 | 12 |
| Over the weekend I checked out the SHEET files I uploaded, they realy
were corrupted. I'm sure I used the correct kermit settings so I don't
know why it didn't work. So I put them all in an ARChive and uploaded
them again. I downloaded the arc file to make sure it got there ok and
everything seems fine now. I even unportected the file this morning
(thanks Buzz).
Just to reitterate, SHEET is a public domain spreadsheet (seems to be
nicer than VC) and can be copied from
LIBRTY::USR:[WALLACE.PUBLIC.ST.SHEET]SHEET.ARC
