    p_manage_21: "Undefined variable"; no updates occur

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

    Description:
    A p_manage_21 job has been in the abc01 util c/1 list of jobs for days. The job log has:

    $aArendt: Undefined variable.

    and there is no "end" statement as there is in other p_manage_21 logs.

    Resolution:
    util c/1 and "ps -ef | grep manage_21" show that the job is no longer running. The problem (as seen in the $alephe_scratch/abc01_p_manage_01 log is the:

    setenv p_match_text "$aArendt Hannah"

    This should be either "$$aArendt Hannah" or plain "Arendt Hannah", but *not* $aArendt Hannah".

    The system treats the "$aArendt" as a variable -- that's why you get the "Undefined variable".
