SYMPTOM(s):
Syteline users get database login dialog when launching Results
Symix users prompted for userid and password when launching Results
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 7.x
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
CAUSE:
The Syteline application does not use the _user table for user authentication. When end users add _user records then run Results from the application _prostar.p is called, which determines that there is no user authenticated against each connected database with _user records.
FIX:
To avoid having to enter user id and password when switching to Results users should either add -U and -P to the database connection parameters or create their own copy of _prostar.p. In a custom version of _prostar.p they would either RETURN or use the SETUSERID function to authenticate the user against the database.
