14467-SegViolation

[Nancy Palmquist]

Linux SuSe 9.1 (I think that is right.)

FilePro 5.0.14 - tried dclerk and rclerk - no real difference

I am getting a floating segmentation violation.

It is in a process table that is running with no human intervention.

It uses dclerk, moves to a free record (using -xe and lookup - in 
@entsel processing.)

Then it does a number of call's - During the call's it reads an .xml 
file and then writes an xml file, creates a number of records in various 
databases.

There seems to be no rhyme or reason about the seg violations.  I get no 
other error messages.

I am not reading past the end of the xml files. (tried import and 
current using READ()
I do not have too many edits.
The data does not seem related to the crash.  One time the data will 
work without issue, and the next it will crash at order 1 or 7 or 8 or 
the like, totally unpredicable.
It does not crash at the same point in the process table.
One item is that it is more likely to crash if I have to process more 
orders, i.e. One order never crashes, but 9, 20, 30 or 40 may or may not 
crash.
I am using filePro and non-filePro files and am creating records in 
both.  The non-filePro files do not have any indexes.

It would be easier to talk this over.  I am unable to make an 
installation that I could ship to you, easily.  I can give you access to 
my system or the customers.  We are currently on test with this and need 
it to be very reliable.

I will gladly send the processing, but it will not run without many files

I am at my wits end to solve this issue.  Put me on billable and if this 
is not a filePro bug I will be glad to pay.

I have fussed with this for 2 weeks and sometimes it works great for 20 
tries then nothing will work right for the next 20.  I am repeating the 
same test files over and over to insure that the data is not at issue.

I have rewritten the code 5 times, changed logic and have tried all 
variations that I can think of.

PLEASE HELP.

Nancy
