513.0. "FOCUS error 206, Insufficient Core Space" by NEWOA::UWINS (... and then, as if by magic ...) Wed May 20 1992 07:27

	Environment: FOCUS 6.1, VMS 5.4-2, Rdb 4.0

	I am getting the following error in a FOCUS procedure when trying
	reporting on an Rdb database. 

 ERROR AT OR NEAR LINE   72 IN PROCEDURE DISK$USERS1:[UWINS.OA]IWTEST.FEX

(FOC206) INSUFFICIENT MEMORY SPACE IS AVAILABLE FOR LOADING PROGRAM
 BYPASSING TO END OF COMMAND
                                                                               

	The focus user manual (appendix A) says :-

FOC206	...Define larger storage and retry.


	Can anybody explain what needs to be increased. 

These are the current process quotas. I have decreased WSEXT from 32000 and 
increased ENQLM to 20000 and the report still fails.

513.1	Increase your WSEXTENT AND WSQUOTA....	AIMHI::CIONI_L		`Thu May 21 1992 12:34`	20
	Here's a view of mine: Maxjobs: 0 Fillm: 250 Bytlm: 120000 Maxacctjobs: 0 Shrfillm: 0 Pbytlm: 0 Maxdetach: 0 BIOlm: 150 JTquota: 2048 Prclm: 10 DIOlm: 150 WSdef: 644 Prio: 4 ASTlm: 150 WSquo: 48000 Queprio: 0 TQElm: 100 WSextent: 99000 CPU: (none) Enqlm: 8000 Pgflquo: 141000 Also, with some of the V5 versions of FOCUS, I got the same problem and increasing the WSEXTENT and WSQUOTA didn't help until I had it really high - I called the IBI hotline and they said that there was some sort of an internal buffer limit FOCUS had for something that was the culprit and that they had written a paper patch a while ago in conjunction with a DEC site to cure the problem but I was never able to get a paper patch of it and went with the higher WSquo and WSextent LisaC
513.2	Wot! no memory! it's a VAX!!!	PEKING::MCSHANEG	Deceptively Co-operative	`Fri Jun 05 1992 11:02`	18
	Nigel, I've come across this error many times and in the majority of cases it's due to a FOCUS restriction on the number of lookup elements in either an external DECODE table that you may have FILEDEF'd or the same with a list of test elements. The easiest way around it is to either define a .MAS for the lookup and use JOIN or to split the lookup into smaller files and refer to them using OR's. Gary. Gary.
