I have a strange problem that has come up and I'm hoping someone out there might be able to point me in the right direction to get it working. I have a PHP script that runs from the command line and connects to a Progress database via ODBC. The script also processes emails that a particular...

Wow! Thank you for the detailed responses. Unfortunately, I'm very green with the Progress database software so this will take some time for me to read up on the commands and processes for accomplishing most of this stuff, and the verbage with Progress is different that I'm used to, so that...

We are about to make a move from Progress 9.1D currently running in a unix environment, to Progress 10.1B running in a linux environment. I searched these forums for a while trying to find some straight forward instructions on how to "dump" a Progress database and import it into a newer...

We are currently faced with a corrupt block issue (error 4232) and in researching solutions, most state that a dump and reload of the database is a feasible fix. In fact it was shown that a dump and reload can fix several issues, including performance issues due to fragmented data. But no one...

I know this thread is stale, but I'd love to see the script you use do the dump, reload, monitor, and send out that page. I'm sure it would be useful to everyone.

OK more half stupid questions for the newbie admins out there (Me). Please bear with me here as this is so far the most informative AI thread on the board atm. 1. In this thread you mention 2 ways to call rfutil, "_rfutil" and "rfutil". Are these one in the same (ie: they do the same thing)...

Just to complete this thread can you post the rfutil command to mark an extent as empty? :) Thanks! Adam

Tom, Just to solidify my understanding...so when your cron job runs to archive an AI extent, does it just copy the oldest extent or can you set some upper boundry on variable extents which allows you to check for "FULL"? I thought variable extent meant that it will fill up to the size of the...

Append I should add that I the environment on the client machine is exactly the same as another client machine on the internal network (not over the VPN) and it has no problems with the connection. Same JVM, ODBC connection settings, etc.

Hello, I am running Progress V9.1D :up: and so far have not had any trouble accessing the database via an odbc connection over the network. Well today I tried to access the database via an odbc connection over a VPN and got the following error: [unixODBC][DataDirect-Technologies][ODBC...
