SYSTEM command cannot be executed..
Posted in 2003
Hi all, Our platform is: Sparc Solaris 8 with IDS 9.40.UC2 I get a 668 error when doing the following: I have to extract a pdf to text in my database. I have created a trigger for insert on the pdf data table. It executes a stored procedure. The sp executes a shell file that sets the required environment paramaters and executes an .ec binary. The ec binary writes the pdf data to an op.system file and calls a c binary i downloaded from internet doing the conversion of the .pdf file to .txt file. The .ec binary then inserts the content of the .txt file to an informix table (text type). The architecture is complex some but it works in the database which is created in nonlogging mode. But when i create the database in buffered-logging, when i try to insert the data to the byte column, i get the error 668. I have to use buffered logging mode to use Excalibur datablade. Best Regards, Sadi sending to informix-list
