That is a good hint indeed, create "on write" triggers for all tables in _file during the session. I'll give it a try. If I can get it to work, I'll let you guys know.

I found the cause. The problem was in ard_det after all, I should have looked closer. Anyway, from the expert responses, I understand that there is no "ON WRITE OF ANYTABLE" trigger, which is another bit of knowlegde :-) Thank you all.

Thank you both. I'll try to explain why, it is about MFG/PRO. A user created a memo invoice and aborted/crashed halfway through the memo program. The memo is now "partially" created. It is shown in some reports, but is missing from other reports where I would expect to see it. In reports where...

I would like to find the table(s) and fieldname(s) that are being written to by a program. In this case, I only have the compiled .r code. Is it possible to run this program from within a wrapper, where there is something like: {pseudocode} ON WRITE OF ANY TABLE DO: MESSAGE TABLENAME...

Thanks for the hint, it worked for me too.

Reshmaworld, since you don't have access to the crontab, is there any cron entry starting an MFG/Pro batch? You will need something that triggers the launch of a program. Regarding your other question: No, the program does not neccessarily have to be in the MFG/Pro menu. (However, if it is, you...

For what is worth, I had a similar problem, but managed to solve it. Installed OpenEdge 10.1B03 on Fedora 12, but could not connect to the SQL server using sqlexp (on local machine). It turned out that OpenJDK was the issue. I replaced it with Sun's JRE, then I was able to run my queries through...

Thanks Tom :-) Point taken, I don't fancy Exploders either.

@cj Thank you for your reply. Is it really true that Progress Explorer must talk to an Admin Server of it's own kind? Willem

I'm a noob to the admin server. Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction. I have a Linux box with Progress 10.1C02 installed. There I started (as root) proadsv without parameters. Also, I have a Windows box with Progress 10.1B05 installed. From there, I try to connect to the admin...

@Sammylam: No, that is Lakers attachment. We do not call MFG's batchprocessor if we use programs that need a date parameter.

We actually bypassed this by calling the MFG programs directly from Linux crontab and passing the date in the CIM file. If you want, I can send you an example.

We had a minor issue upgrading eB2.1SP4 to 10.1C, where a new keyword (CAST) was introduced. This caused a few QAD programs to fail to compile: ffcalca.p, ffcalc02.p, ffcalc03.p, ffcalc04.p, ffcalc05.p and ffcalvar.i. QAD has an out-of-the-box patch for this.

I'd go for a CIM load, but it won't be easy as the workbench is fairly complex...

The error is caused by "gprun.i", which expects the variable to be set. Normally it gets set in mf1a.p or mfw*.p programs. You can work around by adding the variable and then assign global_user_lang_dir = "us".
