running arsload with -i flag

[jeffs42885]

Hello all,

I am trying to run arsload to verify the indexes on a file:

arsload -I cmoddb -i -g AG FILE.ARD

I am not getting any error messages, it is just returning the same thing that comes up if you have a parameter wrong (Shows the list of parameters.) any advice?

Um...  You're missing a bunch of parameters?  You can't get the index parameters from inside the Application configuration without a user id and password first.  If you're using arsload.cfg to store a UID/Password combo, make sure you have access to it from the account you're using (if it's not the CMOD instance).  I'd also add -n (no delete) and -v (verbose) to get more from your index test. 

Hope this helps!

-JD.

def helped! username / /pw are stored in a stash file.

arsload -nvf -I instance -g AG AG.FILE.BLAHBLAH.ARD

generated the .ind and the .out

Is there any way to make that .ind file a bit more pretty, much more like a generic index file?

thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
