At least this proves this is not an iccapi script error, but is instead an icc/cp270 problem. Wish I had more, but haven't experienced this failure although I have experience uploads requiring more than 1 hour to complete.

So I re-ran check_db_sync this morning: $ check_db_sync 09CP02 check_db_sync - Version 1.7 Generating Checkpoint list (/opt/DB_SYNC/09CP02/checkpoint.l) ... There are 1228 names in the database. Generating CSA list (/opt/DB_SYNC/09CP02/csa_db.l) ... Generating Work-Files list (/opt/DB_SYNC/09CP02/work_files.l) ... 09CP02 Database names are in proper sync. $ check_db_sync 10CP02 check_db_sync - Version 1.7 Generating Checkpoint list (/opt/DB_SYNC/10CP02/checkpoint.l) ... There are 1660 names in the database. Generating CSA list (/opt/DB_SYNC/10CP02/csa_db.l) ... Generating Work-Files list (/opt/DB_SYNC/10CP02/work_files.l) ... 10CP02 Database names are in proper sync. So that's not it. I am off to a morning-long meeting, so will have to shelve this for the time being. I'll report back as I learn more. BTW, Jack Easley, the upload using the ICC Config also failed. Even though the ensuing dialog box tells me to look in /opt/fox/ciocfg/09CP02.log for description, this file (and its counterpart for 10CP02) is empty! Hmmmm....

Have you run check_db_sync..to see if workfile, checkpoint, csa and cp match.. If CP has a block that is not resident in the workfile....this can happen... Or even a CP that for some reason has some of the extra parameters of V8.4.1 and above and trying to upload to an older workfile... Every parameter needs a "reserved parking spot" _______________________________________________________________________ This mailing list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by Invensys Process Systems (formerly The Foxboro Company).
