New Cackle.
Mind you, I could have done with some cutesie-poo naming yesterday when it turned out that the reason that our app wouldn't start was because the SYSGEN parameters MIN_PQL_MBYTLM and MIN_PQL_DBYTLM were set inappropriately. Ah, VMS :-)

*hacks suitably huge values into MODPARAMS.DAT*
*Runs @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN GETDATA REBOOT NOFEEDBACK*

There. Perfectly straightforward, innit?

New Sure, it's gibberish bordering on shrubbish...
but at least it gives one a clue as to what the fsck is going on. I mean, one (in this business, at least) should have some idea as to what the terms "AUTOGEN", "GETDATA", "REBOOT" and "NOFEEDBACK" might mean. But I still fail to see the connection betwen the word "potato" and anything having to do with computation in the 21st century!





(Except, of course, that it's spelled correctly....)
