Re: [Bug-GnuCOBOL] ISAM unhappy

[Ron Norman]

I checked the code and that status 91 and message could happen if GnuCOBOL was configured with NO ISAM handler at all.

I do not think it defaults to BDB and you likely have to select that.

It looks like it defaults to NO ISAM handler.

Hi all,

I'm having trouble testing ISAM support with the default Berkeley DB
implementation:

        libcob: IX101A.CBL: 399: runtime library is not configured for
        this operation (status = 91) file: 'XXXXX024'

The compiler was built from the distribution tarball:

$ sed -ne 4,17p config.log
It was created by GnuCOBOL configure 2.2, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69.  Invocation command line was

  $ ../configure

## --------- ##
## Platform. ##
## --------- ##

hostname = lts16
uname -m = x86_64
uname -r = 4.4.0-98-generic
uname -s = Linux
uname -v = #121-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 10 14:24:03 UTC 2017

i have not yet determined where in libcob this message comes from, or
why the system thinks there's no ISAM support.

I'm also not sure which libcob produces the message.  I would like to
think it's the one that was installed when the compiler was installed
(same sources) but perhaps the test programs are built to use the
not-yet-installed library in the source tree?
