1012.0. "Ackn. event on ML-window hangs VXT." by 54687::WIJKAMP (One day, you won't drink beer, you'll drink GROLSCH) Thu Sep 28 1995 10:51

    Hello,

    Customer reports the following:


    He uses a multiline window as the result of a filter
    on his PCM V1.6 VAX system (V6.1).

    This ML-window is displayed on the PCM station itself, and on
    his VXT (V2.1F).

    Now when he selects "acknowledge event" from this ML-window,
    his whole VXT wil hang totally. Even the mouse freezes.
    The only thing he can do is reboot his VXT.
    Strange thing is that it only happens on a ML-window that is
    the result of an Filter-action, and not on the 'normal'
    ML-window, that comes with the C3.
    He can easily reproduce this.

    When he tries this on the ML-window on the PCM station, this
    gives no problem. 


    Any-body seen this, any advise ect,


    Thanks in advance for your help/answers/assistence,

    It's very strange that it works one way and not the other. Are both
    the transports the same?  (i.e DECNET, LAT, ot TCPIP). That's the
    only thing I can think of that could be different.

    What is the VXT config (memory) ? Are you using VXTEX, or a host based
    window manager ?

    A customer of ours had a similar problem with a memory retrained VXT...

    Hello,
    
    For the record.
    
    MOTIF 1.2-3 with the latest motif patch solved the problems.
    
    Thanks,
