RE: [WEB400] strange behavior with web site programs/files

["Mark A. Manske" <mmanske@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As I see your point, this is where it gets really sticky -
to begin with, the first part of the web app is only doing reads,
no updates and does not see the records, to make matters even more
complex, we have green screen apps still in use that are using
journaling/commitment control to do the maintenance on the same file,
so I am not going to be able to change the frcratio due to those
other programs (some will go away, some will stay)
All the srp programs are under the same activation group....

Would it be a good idea to change my files to user controlled??
closing and opening them with each new web request??
Even though LR should do "most" of this "housekeeping"

I was "watching" one of the jobs for the live web site,
now this is something very strange I noticed, doing a 5 and then
a 14 to watch the files, I see the same file opened multiple times,
for the same job, not with overrides - hmm

It does "seem" like the files are being left open even with LR being set on.

I may just make them user controlled, and see what that does.

Mark,

I'd recommend using the CHGPF command to set the FRCRATIO value to 1.
Although you say you're setting LR *ON before returning, it appears that
something is preventing the file from being closed, and the records forced
to disk.  Subsequent requests from the browser may be handled by an entirely
different server JOB.  If the records are not forced to disk, the other JOB
wont see them.  Maybe something to do with the activation group(s) your CGI
programs run under?
