Repartee for Windows database checks

Before migration from OS/2, and after UPGCHK.EXE errors, you might use:

vmailos2 dbchk /f as a database cleanup tool. Note: if running 7.47, verify Q version is 703pr15 or later. Without a PRN update from Active Voice support, bad things will happen associated with leftover Y2K issues.

vmailos2 filedump /e /nXXX /d where XXX is the record number associated with error in upgchk.log. You can manually remove these bad records (i.e. FAX_LIB on non fax enabled systems).

Arcserve 7 for Novell Database Damage

If your database is definately hosed, perform the following:


a) At the server console, perform ASTOP
b) From a Workstation, rename the DATABASE directory which is in the ARCSERVE directory
c) Make a copy of the EMPTYDB directory and rename it to DATABASE (you effectively have a fresh blank database now)
d) Perform ASTART at the server console
e) Merge the backup tape back into the database.
f) Once this is completed, perform the restore as the tape contents will be in the new database


Subsequent backups should merge into the database as normal, previous backups will have to be merged back in.  If the tape contents are ot merging into the database for any reason, you can tweak BTrieve - post your NetWare version and Service Pack and I can post tweaks you can try

VB6 run-time error 713

After working with Excel 2000 text boxes, and vb.NET, running a project in VB6 with text boxes bound to Access 2000 data fields blows error 713.

Execute regsvr32 msbind.dll in X:\WINNT\System32.

Problem solved. Not sure what caused it, but the .net and Excel ideas seem relevant.

Repartee for Win200 and Fujitsu F9600

You may find the only integration that functions is the message waiting indicators.

Assuming 4 digit PBX extensions and 7 digit SMDI extensions, you must edit the Serial_Fujitsu.ini file as follows:

DefaultExtLen= 7
SwsDefaultExtLen= 7
MinExtLen= 4
MaxExtLen= 7
MaxLampExtLen= 7

If you are stunting direct transfers to the voicemail server using forwarded 5 digit virtual lines on the 9600, you need to use Extension Remapping on the server.

Example:
Where actual MLDTs / SLTs are 1XXX, virtual lines are 31XXX, use remapping entries 31* and 1*.
