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

    Description:
    p_publish_04 fails. The $data_scratch p_publish_04.cycles file has:

    0001 + 001800000 001849999
    $
    0002 ! 001850000 001899999
    $
    0003 + 001900000 001900000
    $

    while the $data_scratch p_publish_04.err file has:

    FAILURE Fri Mar 4 11:57:49 EST 2011 ==================
    step 1
    Cycle: 2
    b_publish_04_b: failure
    Job Suspended !!!
    To identify this error in your log files use the command:
    grep "FAILURE Fri Mar 4 11:57:49 EST 2011" $data_scratch/*.log

    We see two logs in the abc01 $data_scratch: p_publish_04_b_1.log and p_publish_04_b_2.log.

    The p_publish_04_b_1.log has this at the end:

    50001 READING DOC 001849999 AT 12:06:57
    Java VM is destroyed ...

    end

    while the The p_publish_04_b_2.log has this:

    Segmentation Fault

    FAILURE Fri Mar 4 11:57:49 EST 2011 ==================
    step 1

    b_publish_04_b: failure

    =======================================================

    Exiting due to job suspension.
    end

    Resolution:
    [From site:] The abc50 tab40.eng Collection display names were the problem. The segmentation fault was produced by the use of an apostrophe and a double dash in the names. Once we adjusted the table to remove them, the problem went away.
