147.0. "More problems with data extract" by PBA::RICHARDS () Wed Jan 04 1989 08:08

    Hi,
    
    1)  Yesterday I tried to copy a file via the data extract menu.
    I got the same errors that were refered to in note "142.0".  This
    morning (01-04-89) I tried it again and I did recieve my files with
    no errors.
    
    2)  Another problem is that I named the two files "SPP_DEC_1988.DAT"
    and "OTD_DEC_1988.DAT".  When I looked in my Proxy account, the names 
    of the file were changed to CIM$PROXY.DAT.  Cim$proxy is the proxy
    name.  If I copy more than one file at a time then it gets very confusing.

    3)  Also, After I selected all the data I wanted to extract, it
    was not clear how to exit the data extract facility.  Should we
    use GOLD-Q to exit?
    
    Thanks for your help and I hope this helps.
    
    Dan Richards

	Hi Dan, Here are some answers to your questions. < 1) Yesterday I tried to copy a file via the data extract menu. < I got the same errors that were refered to in note "142.0". This < morning (01-04-89) I tried it again and I did recieve my files with < no errors. We have recently been updating file transfer options with all the new proxy information. See the next question. < 2) Another problem is that I named the two files "SPP_DEC_1988.DAT" < and "OTD_DEC_1988.DAT". When I looked in my Proxy account, the names < of the file were changed to CIM$PROXY.DAT. Cim$proxy is the proxy < name. If I copy more than one file at a time then it gets very confusing. There was a memo sent to all FMAP users a few weeks ago explaining the problems found in proxies set up between different versions of VMS. Talk to your system manager and ask him/her to reset the proxy access but using the following syntax: $ MCR AUTHORIZE ADD/PROXY CINEMX::username username/DEF ADD/PROXY SHOTIM::username/DEF < 3) Also, After I selected all the data I wanted to extract, it < was not clear how to exit the data extract facility. Should we < use GOLD-Q to exit? GOLD-Q is the way to exit. cb
147.2	proper syntax	CINEMX::KIPNES	Ken 269-2269	`Mon Jan 09 1989 16:53`	28
	Dan, The previous reply had a typo. the correct (desired) syntax for the proxy on your end is: $ MCR AUTHORIZE ADD/PROXY CINEMX::username username/DEF ADD/PROXY SHOTIM::username username/DEF < 2) Another problem is that I named the two files "SPP_DEC_1988.DAT" < and "OTD_DEC_1988.DAT". When I looked in my Proxy account, the names < of the file were changed to CIM$PROXY.DAT. Cim$proxy is the proxy < name. If I copy more than one file at a time then it gets very confusing. Also, I am curious about "CIM$PROXY". Can you give me some information about how that was set up? I am trying to come up with some 'fool-proof' method of dealing with 400 users having proxies set up in 400 different ways (no joke). If you can gather this info for me, I'd appreciate it. /ken (ORCHRD::KIPNES)
