This only occurs on certain machines. Is there a browser setting in IE that could be stopping the execution of a WebFOCUS procedure? I am receiving a foc295 error when trying to execute any self service webfocus request. When trying to run a procedure from http://servername/ibi_html a foc295 error is returned. 0 ERROR AT OR NEAR LINE 2 (FOC295) A VALUE IS MISSING FOR T This is occuring with versions 5.26 and 5.33 on Windows 2000. | ||

A FOC295 usually means that WF is looking for an & variable value that is supposed to be supplied and isn't. I've encountered this before when users tried to use an & for something other than a & variable request (use it in a heading line, for example). Have you taken a look to see if there is a "stray" & that might be causing the issue? | |||

I have looked for a stray &. I am confused as to why it only occurs a few machines. | |||

There's a case on Tech Support: Case #93441085 Question: (FOC295) A VALUE IS MISSING FOR: T Explanation Section Running any FEX gives the following error: FOC295) A VALUE IS MISSING FOR: T Customer is using AT&T Worldnet. This only happens on machines that are configured to use Worldnet. The error in the traces show that the value of HTTP_USER_AGENT contains AT&T. If the machines you are having trouble with use AT&T Worldnet, check out this case. | |||

Check to see if there are any system variables that have an & in them that is what the AT&T think was all about. With the AT&T think everytime the user ran a report it kept saying a value is missing for T | |||

IBI Tech Support was able to find a solution to this problem. On the WF server in client\wfc\etc\DEFAULT.WFS the following line needed to be commented out. _executing_fex=&_executing_fex\n&_set_user_agent Once the line was commented out and the server was rebooted everything worked fine. | |||

I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner. I had this problem also. When I commented out the line as mentioned above, it started working on my laptop. But a few days later when I tried to connect to our production system from my laptop, it told me there was a value missing for T again, on our production reports. I ended up rebuilding my laptop and building a dialup shortcut manually (and not installing the AT&T software) so that the browser would not be branded by AT&T. This fixed all of my problems. | |||

Did you try adding -DEFAULT &T='&T'; to EDASPROF on the server? | |||
|
| Platinum Member |
Jack, I did not try adding the -DEFAULT to the EDASPROF. This problem was only effecting a few users. Most machines where working okay. The changes made to the DEFAULT.WFS have corrected the problem. If the problem recurs then I will try adding the -DEFAULT to the EDASPROF. | |||

This is great, I love you guys. Here I am, having this EXACT problem with a user, I do a search on this BB for FOC295 and actually FIND my problem described exactly, and the solution. However, I do have a issue. I am trying to locate the case #93441085 document referenced by codermonkey. Can anyone tell me how to get at this document? I can't seem to find it in Tech Support. I would really like to read it, if it's available. Also, is the solution referenced by Spence (commenting out the line in default.wfs) contained in the referenced doc? Thank You All for solving my problem! | |||

Debbie, You can't always get access to the cases on the Tech Support site, even if you login. I believe that this is due to secutiry and data protection possibilities, but could be wrong. Also the notes that are added by IB Consultants can be flaged to be 'seen' by the Customer or not so IB are able to keep sensitive comments hidden in a sort of 'For IB eyes only'. I can't even locate it searching the archive either  .Perhaps Kerry could assist you? | |||

Thanks Tony. I contacted our local IBI support person and confirmed the solution with him. He could see the referenced doc (even though we mere mortals can't) and agreed that I should try commenting out the line in DEFAULT.WFS. I'm trying it . . . | |||
