CMOD V8.5 -> 9.5 Upgrade Error message ARS4012E for arsdb -uv
« on: May 15, 2023, 10:17:22 AM »
I have a client who is upgrading from 8.5 to 9.5
when executing the arsdb -uv -I INSTANCE command they get an error message:-
arsdb: ARS4012E Unable to initialize environment. The return code is 159

config files appear normal. Any ideas to cause? What does RC159 signify?

It's a common error:  https://cmod.wiki/index.php?title=ARS4012E

Consider applying all available fixpacks to v9.5 before performing the upgrade:  http://cmod.co/95013

Looking up 159 in /usr/include/errno.h  gives me

#define EMVSPFSFILE     159  /* Permanent file error       */
#define ECMSPFSFILE     159  /* CMS BFS file error         */

But I agree with Justin, get current on service.
