763.0. "Calendar access trouble if name ends in " P"" by CALLAO::MIC () Thu May 28 1992 11:31

    		Hi,
    
    I would like to get opinions on the following behavoir:
    
    ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Spanish (K603 patch installed).
    
    The user called "HERRERA JUAN P" is not authorized to get the ALL-IN-1
    Manager's Agenda even though he was previously granted this access.
    
    
    I have take a look to the A1TRACE.LOG and I have found the following
    lines:                                            
    
    ***************************************************************************
    [SCP/TRACE] GET #JUNK = CALC$SET_OWNER:USER.%WHOLE[USER] << TM_SETOWN_VALID 
    %OA-I-LOGFUN, Funcion: GET	         #JUNK=CALC$SET_OWNER:USER.%WHOLE[USER]
    OA$FLD_RTN: return field contents
    OA$FMS_RTN: Returned "HERRERA JUAN P        " from field "USER"
    GET Symbol: USER
         Value: HERRERA JUAN P
    GET Symbol: HERRERA JUAN P
         Value: 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841972
    ***************************************************************************
    
    Obviously the problem resides in the last "P" into the user's name
    which is translated into the PI symbol.
    
    Is there any solution to this problem? (besides to change the user's
    name to something more than "HERRERA JUAN P" of course).
    
    Anything to deal with the script TM_SETOWN_VALID or another one?
    Any K patch fixing that?
    SPR material?
                                                 
    Thanks in advance,

763.1For Faith, who's on vacationAIMTEC::ZANIEWSKI_DWhy would CSC specialists need training?Thu May 28 1992 13:3814
        From STARS.  The problem also occurs with " E" as the last two
        characters of the username.  You might query engineering directly
        for more information.

        This problem is a restriction in the current version of ALL-IN-1
        V2.4 with ALL-IN-1 UPDATE V2.4 V2.0 (aka K603).  At present we can
        offer the following two workarounds.
        
        Either De-install K603 or, enclose the username in quotes when
        using the Set Owner option.

763.2Many thanks....CALLAO::MICThu May 28 1992 16:236
    	Hi Dave,
    
    Thanks for the very quick reply.
    The workaround you have proposed (quotes around the username) works
    pretty fine. I think this could be useful enough until next release
    (?).
763.4Still in V3.0UTRTSC::BOSMANWe&#039;re just sugar mice in the rainFri Jul 03 1992 08:2112
    Hi,
    
    I tested this one on a V3.0 system and the problem is still there! The
    customer really wants a solution for this one. He has many accounts
    ending with " P" or " E".
    
    Should I SPR this, or is that already done.
    
    Regards,
    Sjaak.
    
    PS. I think this bug is one of the most exotic I saw in years.
763.6current situation ?COMICS::BARHAMNorbert:Wed Aug 05 1992 11:3519
    Hello all,
    
    I have a major British customer for whom this bug is a severe problem.
    I do not see a fix for this in the list for a PFP and basically the
    problem is so severe for them that they cannot upgrade to v3 without a
    workaround.
    K603 introduced the problem on their development machine so I hope there 
    is a customization to remove the problem rather than deinstall k603 ? 
    Any ideas ?
    
    What I really need to know is whether this has actually been CLD'd and if 
    so, what the number is and what the current situation is with this
    problem, i.e. do we know when it will be fixed? If it hasn't been CLD'd
    I'll do it post haste.
    
    Thanks in advance,

        I believe there is a CSP for version 2.4 available.  I've no word
        on version 3.0.

    FYI, (better late than never)
    
    This is fixed in the first patch 3.0-1 (K701) I believe.
