I have a detached server process which occasionally dies (i.e., once every couple days). I set up the command file which runs the process to examine the value of $STATUS after it dies, and this value is %X38048. When I see what message this is associated with via "$ exit %x38048", DCL says: %DCL-W, missing command parameters - supply all required parameters I do not find this message meaningful. For example, the program which dies is not installed in the DCL command tables, nor should it be accessing its command line at all a full day after it has been started up. I should mention that this is a Eunice program, and that no Unix signals are caught by the program (and I have almost all of them set to be caught). I have no clue as to why or where this program is dying. For example, its log file buffers are not flushed, so they are no help. If anyone has a clue as to the meaning of the $STATUS value above, I would appreciate hearing it. Or could this value be completely meaningless? Thanks, Peter -------
