| Upgrade to 7.1.4 issue | Login/Join |
| Member |
Hi All, We are in the process of upgrading from 5.3 to 7.1.4. I have a fex that when run on the 5.3 server returns a report as expected. However when I run the exact same fex on the 7.1.4 server I get the message: "No query information to decode" The following is the source code from the web page" "<-HTML> <-HEAD><-Title>WebFOCUS Message[17]: NO_QUERY No query information to decode. <-/Title><-/Head> <-Body> <-H2> No query information to decode. <-/H2> <-/Body> <-/HTML>< !-- WebFOCUS Version 7.1.4 compiled and linked on Fri May 19 16:45:40 EDT 2006 (Gen branch714:284) -->" I hope this displays correctly, I added the hyphens in the HTML. Has anyone else experienced this issue, if so what do I need to check for to resolve it? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rayden. Web Focus version 7.1.4 Server Windows Server 2003 | ||

Rayden, Place the code -SET &ECHO=ALL; at the beginning of your fex and rerun it to see if you can spot any errors or a no records returned situation. If that doesn't move you forward then a little more info as to what your fex is doing and how (e.g. SQL passthru, hold files etc.) T

Hi Tony, That was magic  When I added the &ECHO line the fex ran and produced the report with no problems. When I remove the line I get the "No query information to decode" message. Something tells me this is not what you, or I, would have expected. This fex is simply producing a EXL2K spreadsheet from two joined datafiles, there are a couple of defines but nothing too fancy. Any futher suggestions? Thanks, Rayden. Web Focus version 7.1.4 Server Windows Server 2003 | |||

We are in the process of testing 7.1.4 and had the same message...it involved an SQL passthru and when the hold file was created it changed and A8 field to A8V....IBI is researching.

Hi Tony, Ok that is magic If I add the line you suggested, the fex runs as expected and I get a report. When I remove the line I get the error as before, "No query information to decode". This fex is simply producing | |||

Hi Prarie, So it is a reported issue, does it have a reference number? I tried to run my procedure again and it fails with or without the SET &ECHO statement now, so I must have just got lucky. Tony, what is the result of including the &ECHO, does it produce a detailed log of the run request? If so where do I see the results? Thanks, Rayden.

Hi All, Well I have narrowed down the issue now to be with the developer studio 71. I have our 5.2 server and our 7.1 server defined in the studio client. When I open a procedure on the 5.2 server and click "run" all is good. When I open the same procedure on the 7.1 server and click run then I get the "No query information to decode" error. What is odd is if I create the url to the procedure on the 71 server like so: http://xx.xx.xx.xx/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIF_ex=procedurename This runs the report as expected, so it seems to be a disconnect between the studio client and the server. I am opening a ticket with IBI. Has anyone else run into this issue? Thanks, Rayden. Web Focus version 7.1.4 Server Windows Server 2003 | |||

Yes it is a reported issue...I'll have to get the number.

Rayden, The echo results are, indeed, akin to a joblog and would normally be included in HTML output within a comment (< !-- and --> ) but for PDF and Excel output of course, you do not receive this. If you have procedure tracing turned on then you could locate the output in the trace. Years ago (and I mean years  ) I came across a problem on MVS FOCUS where a job looped until killed. Adding a -RUN or even a comment line made it work. Weird eh? The problem was to do with the stack being a particular length and, seemingly, not being cleared correctly. Sometimes insane solutions win the day!Good luck with your problem. T

Prarie and Rayden, The SQL passthru generating the A8V rather than the A8 is due to the way version 7.x now supports VARCHAR fields. In the WF Server profile, we had to add the line; ENGINE DB2 SET VARCHAR OFF Hope this helps, Kevin WF 7.6.10 / WIN-AIX | |||

Thanks...Kevin..we'll try that.

Does it matter where ENGINE SQLORA SET VARCHAR OFF is placed in the WF Server profile? WF 766 Win2K | |||

I would have to go back through my notes, but there were also a couple other server issues (probably related to DB2 and console functionality) that kept us from using the 7.1.4 release. We moved directly to 7.1.6.

Looks like the code is working where I placed it. Thanks! WF 766 Win2K | |||

Suzanne, I'd put it in edasprof.prf (accessable via the WF Server Console) or in individual fexes. Glad it worked out. Cheers. Francis  Give me code, or give me retirement.

well, my program is generating N number of hold files based on user selection criteria. When the user selection criteria is creating some 10/15 hold files,the report is runnig fine. But when the user puts no selection criteia, it's creating some 900 hold files while processing. i looked at the log, nothing going wrong, but i am getting the message >> "No Querry information to decode" any solution ??
