FOCSORT error

[PeterG5]

Hi All,

I'm running WF 431 under Windows 2000 and am having occasional difficulties with FOCSORT.FOC.
I got this message in the EDAPRINT log this morning when running an un-attended overnight operation.
There's plenty of space on the output disk and I've also tried to erase the FOCSORT file before the table request but it does not work. It's running on a Dell Optiplex GX280;
An identical operation on a GX260 with the same operating system and WF version runs without any problems
Any suggestions? Many Thanks, Peter.

How are you running the un-attended overnight operation? If you use 'edastart -t', is this the only job running, or do you have several? If several, then they're all sharing the 'temporary' directory, which could account for this problem.

Hello,

I'm not using EDASTART (I can't seem to find it anywhere in WF 431), so I use WFMOBILE instead and it has worked OK for years. Basically, I point it at a fex where there is a series of EXecute statements, one for each of the imbedded fex's, each of which is followed by a -RUN. It is the ONLY WebFocus job running at the time, so there should be no resource conflict.

Peter.

I'm still getting this problem. Can anyone help?
Is Focsort short of disk space? Can I increase it?
The Focsort file is actually on the disk but WF seems unable to see it.....
