Errors with dbFileSpec Create
in [Visual Objects]

From: Martin on 29 Jul 2010 06:50 Last night we were running an update on a customers system. Win 7 32bit Newish windows server ADS 9.1 VO2.7 fTmpFile := dbFileSpec{cPath+cName} lCreated := fTmpFile:Create(fTmpFile:FullPath,aStruct,cRdd) lCreated is returning FALSE, but the DBF is created Every other system is returning TRUE. Any ideas please? Thanks Martin

From: Jon J on 30 Jul 2010 00:31 Martin We experienced a similar issue where the Server is 2008 and the workstation is Windows 7 when creating a temporary file and then attempting to open it, getting "File Not Found" even though it was there It has to do with caching in SMB20 between the server and the client. I don't like this as a permanent solution, but it worked for us until we can investigate further.............. Create the following registry entries (each of which are DWORD values set to 0) on each client machine: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters\FileInfoCacheLifetime HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters\FileNotFoundCacheLifetime HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters\DirectoryCacheLifetime -- regards Jon Justin 02 6239 2277 "Martin" <spam(a)spam.spam> wrote in message news:X1d4o.228874$wi5.113701(a)hurricane... > Last night we were running an update on a customers system. > > Win 7 32bit > Newish windows server > ADS 9.1 > VO2.7 > > fTmpFile := dbFileSpec{cPath+cName} > lCreated := fTmpFile:Create(fTmpFile:FullPath,aStruct,cRdd) > > lCreated is returning FALSE, but the DBF is created > > Every other system is returning TRUE. > > Any ideas please? > > Thanks > > Martin
From: richard.townsendrose on 30 Jul 2010 03:00 Jon It would be nice to have a full set of dodgy things on windows 7 and smb going. A lot of us use temporary files. We have several Windows 7 users, and once the config has been carefully setup it is all ok. but the UAC is an installation menace to put it mildly. is there a single ms resource thats describes all of this ? there are innumerable ms hosted blogs that range from near 4 letter words to "microshaft" which describes my feelings best ... some questions: a) where is it best to write an error log - the directory where the app is installed ? usually c:\tdoc5\system, but often c:\program files \tdoc\system ? or should this be c:\program files\tdoc\ b) tdoc temporary files are often located at "my documents\tdoc\spools" and "my documents\tdoc\for import" this is bad news when different document controllers have different log ins on the same pc BUT working on the same tasks - they need the same directories ... c) is it better now to use the registry rather than our TDOC.INI located in the c:\tdoc5\system directory ... again, a commonly available ini file is much better for task working whereas the registry might not reflect changes from one user to another. GEOFF - being the ms expert - perhaps you can comment .. Richard
