MP Server / AFP2PDF conversion possibility using IBM CMOD REST APIs

« on: August 09, 2023, 11:39:21 AM »

Hi Team,

We are integrating CMOD 10.5 REST APIs into a custom application to retrieve AFP documents from CMOD and we want to transform these APF documents into PDFs before sending it to the caller of the document.

Has anyone tried anything like this before with REST APIs if you can suggest the possible options that will be great.
 I understand that this is possible with ODWEK APIs with generic transform interface which allows us to leverage RICOH afp2pdf to transform it but I am not sure how to achieve the same with CMOD REST APIs

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mayank

MP Server / CMOD 8.5.0.1 performance issues post machine restart

« on: August 02, 2023, 10:11:53 AM »

Hello Everyone,

I have come across a very wired situation where in CMOD 8.5 has started responding very slowly post AIX LPAR reboot.
Document retrieval is taking 3-4 minutes to open the document.

I understand that it is out of support version but it seems customer is not in the mood of upgrade. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can anyone suggest things to be checked in this case ?
 
Thanks,
Mayank

MP Server / arsdoc query is failing with SQL0420N Invalid character found in a character st

« on: March 31, 2023, 10:59:03 PM »

Hi Team,
We are currently facing issue with one of our scripts. The primary area in which we are seeing this issue is the "arsdoc" query when it gets/extracts the documents from disk.
The snippet goes like below:

 

    /opt/IBM/ondemand/V10.5/bin/arsdoc \
      get -h $HOSTNAME \
          -f "$FOLDER" \
          -i "WHERE tstcrt_number||cast_number in (select tstcrt_number||min(cast_number) from root.$TABLE group by tstcrt_number) AND ARCHIVE_DATE = '$PREVMAXEXT' AND BS_CSI_No = '$CSI'" \
          -a \
          -d $WORK_DIR \
          -o ctbodctc.afp \
          -u dsgrep \
          -p /opt/IBM/ondemand/V10.5/config/ars.stash \
          -v >> $LOG 2>&1

 

Note : This arsdoc function gets/extracts data based on a filter criteria that takes customer_number into consideration.

 

Please note that the sql query in above arsdoc function is using "concat" or "||". The exact same query is running perfectly fine on AIX in our current production system.
However, when running this in Linux system in our new production machine



Error in Linux :

MP Server / AFP2PDF Plus Transform for CMOD 10.5 License type

« on: November 15, 2022, 04:12:23 AM »

Hello,

We are in the process of upgrading our CMOD 8.5 to CMOD 10.5 and we are using afp2pdf software to transform afp documents to pdf and looks like IBM has stopped selling the license for it and have directed to us to connect with RICHO to buy the license. Does anyone has any contact details of RICHO if you can share that will be helpful. Also if anyone can share the experience of this tool with Navigator as plugin ?

Thanks
Mayank
