Errors with ARSLOAD of OLD AFP Documents
« on: February 08, 2018, 09:34:14 AM »
I am getting errors I was not expecting with ARSLOAD.  Using iSeries v.7.3 with server v.10.1.0.2.

Background.  I used ARSDOC GET API to create a .OUT and .IND file with 1,065 old files from 2002 that had been loaded to an Application defined as TIF viewing.  They are not viewable as TIF. I think they are MO:DCA that came from CM iSeries.  So.

When I try to reload to a new Application defined to use the AFP Viewer I get the following error:
####################
ARS4312I Loading started, 131229818 bytes to process                                                 
ARS1199W The .ind file CCSID 0 does not match the CODEPAGE:1208 value specified in the .ind file.  A
le CCSID and the CODEPAGE:value might cause the load to fail.                                       
ARS1134E Invalid structured field header in the file /home/JWOLKEN/EXP2002.0.CLAIM.CLAIM.out         
ARS1146I Loaded 0 rows into the database                                                             
ARS4311E Loading failed                                                                             
ARS4318E Processing failed for file >/home/JWOLKEN/EXP2002.0.CLAIM.CLAIM<                           
ARS4327E Processing has stopped.  The remaining files will NOT be processed.

From the internet it looks like OnDemand does extra format checking of AFP documents and these files to have the right X'05' codes embedded.

Then, I try recreating the Application with Viewer = User-Defined and Extension = AFP.
I get an error, ARS2219I, that is not even defined in the OnDemand v.7.3 Messages and Codes Guide.

Can you show us the commands you're running, plus the Application Definition?

IBM OnDemand iSeries Support responded with the following recommendation that solved the ARS2219I error:

ARS2219I - Thread creation failed: return code is 3029
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Check system environment variables on the system and see if you have these three:
QIBM_MULTI_THREADED
LIBPATH
ICU_DATA
> > We think the QIBM_MULTI_THREADED is the one that is impacting you, but the other 2 are needed for some other things.  These were suggested back at 9.5.0.1.  Here are the commands to add them if you don't have them already:
ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_MULTI_THREADED) VALUE(Y) LEVEL(*SYS)
ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(LIBPATH) VALUE('/QIBM/ProdData/OnDemand/bin') LEVEL(*SYS)
ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(ICU_DATA) VALUE('/QIBM/PRODDATA/ONDEMAND/LOCALE') LEVEL(*SYS)
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Adding these 3 Environment variables to the iSeries Server removed the error and enabled the files to load and index successfully (and be retrieved/displayed correctly) as long as the Application was defined as User Defined with an extension of AFP.

Was going to mention ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(QIBM_MULTI_THREADED) VALUE(Y) LEVEL(*SYS)

This happened to me in the past...you have to read those READ THIS FIRST docs!
