Tom, Thanks for the feedback, but the info in your 2nd post is applicable to SCO UNIX, we are running HP-UX. Not sure if any of it is applicable.

We are encountering what appears to be a memory leak with one of our Progress batch programs that are running on our UNIX db server (HP-UX), Progress version 9.1C. Essentially the process errors out with the following error message: ** stget: out of storage; the current -hs value is 2000. Try a...

We are running Syteline 5.00.3 with Progresss 9.1c. Our configuration is multi-db/multi-site. We occasionally have users (and sometimes processes) that cause record locks with some of our mission critical apps for an extended period of time. Currently we are configured such that if a record...

Tom, Yes we can compile the code. I'm assuming we we would have to do a systemwide recompile. Correct me if I'm wrong about that. You said it is fairly straightforward. Is there anything we should be aware of should we decide to do this? -Ed

I've also posted this in the Symix section. Not sure which would be better. We are currently running Syteline ERP 5.00.3 on Progress 9.1C. We would like to migrate to a newer version of Progress (either 9.1E or possibly 10.1) and at the same time stay on Syteline 5.00.3. As I understand it...

We are currently running Syteline ERP 5.00.3 on Progress 9.1C. We would like to migrate to a newer version of Progress (either 9.1E or possibly 10.1) and at the same time stay on Syteline 5.00.3. As I understand it, Syteline 5.00.3 is only certified for Progress 9.1C. An obvious solution to...

Tom, I've actually done several things with UNIX, but not a lot with cron. I agree, setting up multiple sessions is pretty easy to do. I was hoping to be able to do this with one session via the asynchronous option and not have to start multiple sessions. For what we are trying to do it would...

The intent was to actually run this directly on our db server (UNIX HP-UX). The main calling program would be launched throught the UNIX scheduling utility (chron). Correct me if I'm wrong but it sounds like this really isn't an option.

I'm trying to execute a series of programs from a main program that will run and not wait for the previous program to finish before the next one starts. From what I can tell, using the asynchronous option in Progress is the way to do this. So far nothing has worked. I keep getting errors...

We are on the same version of syteline. We've encountered similiar problems. I'm guessing your getting a CRC error when you try to run these programs. I've never used the Symix utilities to add a UDF. As I understand it, when you change a Progress DB table (add a field, index, etc.), every...

What format is the bar code you are trying to generate? If your trying to generate code 39 barcodes (not code 39 extended), Read on. We were able to aquire a piece of freeware from PEG(http://www.peg.com/) that functions as a called program. You call it, and then output the variable with a...

I'm posting this here and in the Development section. I'm not sure which is more appropriate. Recently, we have encountered the following errors on some of our batch processes that are running on our UNIX db server: ** There is not enough memory to allocate a sort buffer. (538) ** stget: out...

I'm posting this here and in the Database Administration section. I'm not sure which is more appropriate. Recently, we have encountered the following errors on some of our batch processes that are running on our UNIX db server: ** There is not enough memory to allocate a sort buffer. (538)...

Our ERP is Syteline, which written in Progress 9.1C, our DB server is UNIX, running HP-UX. We run a fair amount of batch programs directly on the DB server as well as several Windows clients that interact with the DB. That being said, for the past several months we have been encountering the...

Have you tried using a 'Put' statement instead of a display statement? It functions similiar to display, but it has no default frame. The syntax is similiar to display PUT field1 at 1 field2 at 10 format ">>>9.99" field3 at 25 skip. I've had situations like this and that's...

I'm trying to output information directly to a networked printer using the following code: OUTPUT STREAM rpt-job TO VALUE(jobprt.print-destination) PAGED PAGE-SIZE 55. Where jobprt.destination is a fully qualified UNC pathway to a printer. For example, \\syt\HP4000. Occasionally we get the...

Thanks for the feedback everyone.:) I downloaded & installed Copernic Desktop Search at Lee's suggestion, and it definately solved the problem. After the initial install/config, it was a breeze to use. Ran much faster then the search tool that was with windows 2000. You do have to initially...

One thing that came up recently is that when searching for Progress programs that contained a particular text string, the Windows XP search didn't kick up anything. However, when the same search was done using a Windows 2000 box, about 40 files kicked up. As it turns out, Microsoft...

OK, Here is a situation that I encounter frequently and have never been able to get a straight answer to. Background: A client application is writing records to table x. At the same time, a batch process which cycles every 5 minutes is reading records from table x utilizing the progress "For...

We were doing a db dump & load recently and encounterd 2 problems during the dump process. First, one table didn't dump completely. It should have dumped about 270,000 records and only dumped about 135,000. Second, a table that should have been dumped was not dumped at all. The dumps were...
