Script error, not recognizable (not syntax-related)

[datanibbler]

Hi,

in one of my primary LOAD scripts (that take data from a database and make it into a series of qvd files), I have an error recorder this morning that I don't recognize. It is

>> QVX_UNEXPECTED_END_OF_DATA: <<

(right after a LOAD, after the list of the fields found where the text "xx lines fetched" is missing)

Two examples (to illustrate just what is missing)

(the last LOAD before this)

>> 2 fields found: PERSEH, Ber_Anw, 53 lines fetched <<

(this one LOAD where the error is)

>> 8 fields found: Datum_AZ, Pers_Nr_AZ, VORNAME_AZ, NACHNAME_AZ, MA_typ, Vorgei, AZ_orig, AZ, <<

Can anyone tell me what this error is about? I assume it's something external because it used to work for - quite a while. I'll see it it happens tomorrow ...

Thanks a lot!

Best regards,

DataNibbler

Hi DataNibbler,

maybe there is some kind eof-char within your data - by loading text-files you could specify within the file-format "no eof".

Hi Marcus,

that is a possibility.

I cannot quite imagine why there should be such a character that wasn't there yesterday, but maybe ... I guess tomorrow it will be all right. As a matter of fact, we have such issues (with other apps) regularly 😉 (they fail once and when you just restart them or the next time round, after 2hrs or so, it's all right).

Let's see.
