    p_manage_01: sort "Illegal byte sequence"

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

    Description:
    p_manage_01 was suspended. I see this in the p_manage_01_a_10.log:

    start sort /aleph/aleph/u18_1/cun01/scratch/manage_01_1_10
    sort: can't read /aleph/aleph/u18_1/cun01/scratch/manage_01_1_10: Illegal byte sequence
    end sort /aleph/aleph/u18_1/cun01/scratch/manage_01_1_10
    ...
    ... No such file or directory
    ... sort failure

    Resolution:
    [Note: The same problem, with the same solution, occurred with p_manage_02 at this site. See KB 16384-12801.]

    I added a

    setenv LC_ALL C

    line to the beginning of $aleph_proc/p_manage_01 (as the second line) and an

    unsetenv LC_ALL

    as the 2nd-to-last line of the proc (immediately preceding the "exit").

    and the p_manage_01 ran successfully.
