What are util_e_21_check_xml and util_e_21.xml_err?

Question

What are the $data_scratch/util_e_21_check_xml and util_e_21.xml_err files?

Answer

util_e_21_check_xml is the xml for the doc record ue_21 is currently working on . (The doc number is found in the "<identifier>aleph-publish:001234567</identifier>" tag (near the beginning of the file).}

The util_e_21.xml_err files have the doc numbers of records ue_21 failed to process {failed to create a z00p ("ALEPH Published Document") for}.

Each time ue_21 processes a doc record the util_e_21_check_xml is overwritten. Thus, a problem doc record would need to be sent to the server at an idle time when there was no queue of z07p ("Publishing Update Doc") records to be processed and other records were not being sent to the server. One could then see the XML which ue_21 is generating for the record (and see if it stops at a particular field -- indicating a problem with that field or the following).

Additional Information

* $aleph_proc/util_e_21 has the following setenv's:

setenv xml_temp_file util_e_21_check_xml
setenv xml_error_file util_e_21.xml_err

* The ./util/ue_21_a program references the xml_temp_file as "TEMP-XML-VALID-FILE" and the xml_error_file as "TEMP-XML-ERROR-FILE-1".
