    get_tab_columns: Mismatch between header 'COL' definitions and last header line

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 18.01

    Description:
    After upgrading to SP 1871, we ran p_serial_13. In the log file ($alephe_scratch/ser_open1.log), there appeared this message:

    get_tab_columns: Mismatch between header 'COL' definitions and last header line definition:
    !!!!!!!!!!-!-!-!-!-!-!-!-!-!-!-!!!!!!!!!!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-!!!!>

    We had run Util H 2 and H3 after upgrade as per the SP implementation notes.

    There is a KB item 5921 that suggests a similar error message only appears when the UTF file is not found. Please advise what we need to do.

    Resolution:
    We have changed the way in which the headers are read, but this change can only be done in higher versions. In any case, there are no implications to the error and in closed versions it should be ignored.

    The problem has been corrected in Aleph version 20 by rep_ver 15161.
