FILES ONLY PRINT FIRST FEW PAGES, OR DATA OVERRUN ERRORS

Contents | Index | About the Icons

If, with ScriptServer Version 5.0-x, jobs only print a few pages of a file and then stop, the problem could be a DATA OVERRUN error. To confirm this, print the file with the /NOTIFY qualifier:

  $ PRINT/QUEUE=queue-name/NOTIFY file-name

where "queue-name" is the name of the queue in question and "file-name" is the name of the file with which you are having problems, and/or set the queue to /RETAIN=ERROR:

  $ SET QUEUE/RETAIN=ERROR queue-name

where "queue-name" is the name of the queue in question. Either of these commands should give you the "DATA OVERRUN" error message.

NOTE: This should only happen on Serial (TX or TT) or LAT ports.

This situation can be corrected by setting the terminal to enable the type_ahead, altypeahd, and hostsync characteristics as follows:

  $ SET TERM/PERM/TYPE_AHEAD/ALTYPEAHD/HOSTSYNC port:

where "port" is the terminal to which the queue is connected.
