5100.0. "RDMS-F-BUFLIMEXC, internal buffer limit RDB 7.0" by M5::DDAYBERR () Tue Mar 04 1997 11:12

         I have a customer running the web agent with RDB 7.0,
    of course.  He ran RDBWEB_API against the database, then
    generates the .sql file with RDBWEB_GEN, attaches to the
    database and tries to run the .sql.  It always seems to
    return a fatal error on one of the tables, the errors
    being 
    RDB-E-NO_META_UPDATE,
    RDB-F-IMP_EXC, facility specific limit exceeded
    RDMS-F-BUFLIMEXC, internal buffer limit exceeded
    
        But the command file continues to run, later failing
    due to some of the previous modules that weren't added
    due to the internal buffer limit exceeded error.   The 
    customer can successfully run the webgen files against
    smaller database tables.  The particular table that is
    bombing has 66 columns and this shouldn't be causing any
    internal limit errors.
         
          The customer is sending a log of this behavior, along 
    with a full verify and rmu/extract of his database for testing.
    
        Any tips/clues/hints as to what we can do to get this to
    execute???    VAX/VMS 5.5-2.

    I had the customer send me an RMU/EXTRACT of his database,
    and I can reproduce the RDMS-F-BUFLIMEXC using the .sql
    generated by the RDBWEB_GEN.  What types of things can I
    manipulate to get this to succeed??       Thanks.

SO what does it fail on?

Debbie,

Can you web-gen just the table with the problem and have it work?

There are some problems with databases with complex metadata that I don't 
believe are fixed until ECO 1.  Frequently generating smaller subsets can 
help avoid the problem.
