4133.0. "Problems Caching a .RLB file" by CPCOD::JOHNSON (Peace can't be founded on injustice) Mon Mar 24 1997 18:51

    We are trying to set up ACMS to run the user interface at a new location.
    The .ADB file is caching correctly, but our .RLB file is not.

    The logicals on the client side are:

  "ACMS$ADB_CACHE" [super] = "DSA2:[ACMS_APPL.ACMS$CACHE.]"
  "ACMS$RLB_CACHE" [super] = "DSA2:[ACMS_APPL.ACMS$CACHE.]"

The error in ATR on the server side shows:

%ACMSCACHE-E-NOT_CACHED, Error while attempting to cache file
Caching attempted when direct access failed with error:

%RMS-F-DEV, error in device name or inappropriate device type for operation
************************************************************

The request library file exists on the server side and this seems to see that
okay - so we are assuming the RMS error occurs in trying to cache the file on
the client side. Is there a way to see what invalid device this is trying to
cache the file on? Since the ADB file made it over okay, and the logicals point
to the same place how can we find out what is going on?

Thanks for your help,

Leslie and Seetaram

    
    	The caching of the ADB and the RLB are handled by 2 different
    	processes.  The ADB is cached by the ACC.  The RLB is cached
    	by the agent (in this case the CP, I presume).  It's the
    	CP that is having a problem.  The file spec is sent by
    	the remote appl's EXC to the CP on the front end.  The
    	CP then attempts to access the file using this file spec,
    	copying it the location you specified.  The easiest way
    	to debug this is to log into the account the CP is
    	using and do a DIR/SIZE of the remote file spec and then
    	attempt to copy it to the place you specified.  One of
    	these is likely to fail.

Thank you very much. That should help.
