Hello to all, we have here a 8.3b version of Progress.

The application is made for financial data.

On a form, when we enter data (number), we got this message:

SYSTEM ERROR: -s exceeded. Raison STOP condition and attempting to write stack trace to file 'procore'. Consider increasing -s startup parameter. (5635)

I'm not sure if the problem came fro a stack or something like that.



my .pf file is:
-db C:\LPRG\LPRG2013\devel\dev\defaut\lprgmain# BD à connecter
-e 150
-h 3# Maximum 3 BD
-s 100# Stacks
-nb 255# Nested Blocks
-d ymd# Format de la date
-yy 1920# Century
-cpinternal iso8859-1# Page de code interne de Progress
-T C:\LPRG\LPRG2013\devel\dev\tmp # Répertoire temporaire sur le PC
-U xxxxxx # Usager de la BD
-P xxxxxx # Mot de passe
-1



Do you have an idea where to start the search ?

Thank you verry much.
 
Hello to you, yes i have access to the source code. You give me an advice, the table i try to showon the screen is big, maybe it's to big to handle by the application.

I will cut the table by 2, and try this again.

more to come...
 
Have you tried increasing -s as the error message suggests?

BTW -- 8.3b is ancient, obsolete and unsupported. You should upgrade. You have the source so you have no barrier to doing so..
 
Hello, yes i tried to increse the -s parameter in .pf, but nothing change.

Yes i know about the old version they are using here, but at this time we can upgrade, so it must be work !


thank you for your help, i continue my search.
 
You mention that you are trying to show a table on the screen. That sounds like something that could be isolated to create a test case. If you posted that we could probably give more specific help.
 
The following is an example of how to blow up your stack (using the 11.2 default -s). If you increase -s then you can increase the 201 to something higher.

Code:
PROCEDURE foo:
   DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER i_ibar AS INTEGER NO-UNDO.
 
   IF i_ibar < 201 THEN
      RUN foo (i_ibar + 1).
 
END PROCEDURE.
 
RUN foo ( 0 ).

Interestingly 201 = #C9 = RET in Z80...
 
Hello to all, i found the problem, in a table a have a mathematical calcul. The calcul loop on himself... i correct the formula and everything is working well now.


thank you for all advice.
