Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows 32 Intel
SYMPTOM(s):
Running Character Client application generates 293 error.
** "<file-name>" was not found. (293)
Using progress.ini file with _progres
CAUSE:
The Character session is using Progress.ini file and the Section Winchar on this file does not have the PROPATH set up.
FIX:
To fix this problem do the following steps:
1) Set the PROPATH in the WinChar Startup section of the progress.ini file.
NOTE: There is an entry for PROPATH in the Startup section at the beginning of the progress.ini file. The WinChar Startup section is further down in the progress.ini file, and that is where the Character sessions get the value for the PROPATH.
The value for PROPATH in the progress.ini file overrides any PROPATH environment variable you may have set at the operating system level.
The default location for the progress.ini file is in the %DLC%\bin directory.
An example of the section on the Progress.ini where the PROPATH for the Character Client Sessions is:
[WinChar Startup]
DLC=d:\dlc91
PROBUILD=d:\dlc91\PROBUILD
PROPATH=.,d:\dlc91\tty,d:\dlc91\PROBUILD\EUCAPP\EUC.PL,d:\dlc91\PROBUILD\EUCAPP,d:\wrk91
2) In order to use the ini file where you set up the Winchar section, please add the client startup parameter -basekey "INI" -ininame d:\wrk91\myprogres.ini
NOTE: As of 8.2x and higher of Progress, for the Character client sessions Progress looks in the Registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> PSC -> PROGRESS -> 8.2x -> WinChar ->
Startup for the PROPATH. Make sure this has the appropriate r-code path location or remove it to rely either on the .ini file.
It's also necessary to change and check the Registry entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> SOFTWARE -> PSC -> PROGRESS -> 8.2x -> WinChar
