39.0. "Print WPS-PLUS from no WPS-PLUS system" by TRCOA::SHEU (Fred Sheu @TRC) Wed Feb 19 1992 00:32

I wonder if WPS-PLUS doc type message can be printed on ALL-IN-1 system (v2.4)
where WPS-PLUS is not intergrated ?

My customer has bee using  WordPerfect intergration for their message editor 
for years.  Until last week, they connected their VAX to other ALL-IN-1 systems
that the majority of users are running WPS-PLUS as their editors. 
My customer has no problem reading the WPS-PLUS messages which are sent form 
the remote systems. However the following error messages shown up when they 
tried to print the WPS-PLUS message :

%OA-E-MRGFNF, Error opening MERGE file "WPSPLUSTMP.WPL"
-OA-E-TXTOPNERR, TEXT DSAB open error 

I wonder if I need to integrate WPS-PLUS into ALL-IN-1 to fix the problem? My 
customer is not very keen on having another editor of choice for the users!

Regards, Fred.

39.1It should workIOSG::NEWLANDRichard Newland, IOSG, REO1-D/4AWed Feb 19 1992 14:0420
    
    The ALL-IN-1 installation option for WPS-PLUS support refers to the
    editor only.  The WPS-PLUS formatter code is always included so that
    incoming WPS-PLUS messages can be formatted.
    
    The error messages show that an error occurred in WPPRINT while it
    foreground formatting a WPS-PLUS message.  When doing this WPPRINT
    first does a MERGE to create the WPSPLUSTMP.WPL file which contains the
    message header and the message body.  The WPSPLUSTMP.WPL file is then
    formatted by the WPS-PLUS formatter.  The error occurred when doing the
    MERGE.
    
    Has WPPRINT been customized, by the site or by the WordPerfect
    integration?
    
    A trace of a Print of a WPS-PLUS message might provide useful
    additional information.

From the following part of the trace it appears that the MERGE function
cannot create the output .WPL file.

Could you do the following to check that the output WPS-PLUS text dataset 
is included and working.

1.  Create a small text file, FILE.TXT

2.  Convert it to WPS-PLUS:

	<COPY 'FILE.TXT' 'FILE.WPL'

3.  FILE.WPL should be created.

39.4Tried and FailedTRCOA::SHEUFred Sheu @TRCFri Mar 06 1992 19:4011
    
    Richard, Thanks for the quick reply. I followed your suggested steps 
    1 and 2. It failed at COPYing the TXT to WPL file with the following 
    error messages shown.
    
    %OA-E-NOCOPY, Problem with COPY function - file "text.wpl"
    -OA-E-TXTOPNERR, TEXT DSAB open error.
    
    Any idea ?
    
    Regards, Fred.
39.5Are these modules linked in?IOSG::NEWLANDRichard Newland, IOSG, REO1-D/4AFri Mar 06 1992 20:0018
From the error message it looks like the WPS-PLUS text dataset is not in
your OA$MAIN image.  Look in the OA$BUILD:A1LINK.COM file and check that
the module OAWPL is being linked into OA$MAIN.  Normally OAWPL and some
other WPS-PLUS modules are always linked into OA$MAIN so that received
WPS-PLUS messages can be processed.

The standard A1LINK.COM looks like this at the point where OAWPL is 
included:

  $wo "!"     
  $wo "! Standard WPS-PLUS components"
  $wo "a1$build:WPADSA/INCLUDE=(OADXTSRV,OADX,OADXT,OAWPL,OAWPLNSRT,OADXLLS)"
  $ if .not. a1$wpsplus then goto no_wpsplus_1
  $wo "! Optional WPS-PLUS components"

39.6Another potential WPS-PLUS DSAB failureSHALOT::WARFORDRichard Warford @OPA DTN 393-7495Fri Mar 06 1992 20:174
    You might also check to see if you have a WPSDEF.WPL in your ALL-IN-1
    directory. 
    
    Rick
39.7Linked TRCOA::SHEUFred Sheu @TRCFri Mar 06 1992 21:5810
    Yes, the modules are linked in. I can see the following lines in both
    oa$build:a1link.com and oa$build:a1link.opt files.
    
    a1$build:wpadsa/include=(oadxtsrv,oadx,oadxt,oawpl,oawplnsrt,oadxlls)
    
    But I don't find the file WPSDEF.WPL in my all-in-1 directory. Probably
    it is due to the fact that we've never integrated WPS-PLUS as our
    editor.
    
    Regards, Fred.
39.8Where to get a WPSDEF.WPLIOSG::SHOVEDave Shove -- REO-D/3CMon Mar 09 1992 18:474
    You can get a WPSDEF.WPL (empty) from subdirectory [.USER] under
    OA$LIB:
    
    Dave.
39.9Actually OA$LIB_LLV:WPSDEF.WPLIOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeTue Mar 10 1992 19:5110
    Re .-1
    
    Actually, you shouldn't be able to.
    
    I believe that the correct location is now in OA$LIB_LLV, since
    WPSDEF.WPL is language specific. The one in [.USER] is probably
    historical, and maybe shouldn't be there anymore. I *think* that create
    user gets it from OA$LIB.

39.10Mea culpaIOSG::SHOVEDave Shove -- REO-D/3CWed Mar 11 1992 19:473
    Whooops! Thanks Graham.

39.11It works !TRCOA::SHEUFred Sheu @TRCThu Mar 12 1992 22:196
    After copying oa$lib_llv:wpsdef.wpl to me directory. I can now print
    a WPSPLUS type document without any problem. Thanks for all the inputs. 
    By the way, I wonder why this file does not get copied to the user's
    directories when the ALL-IN-1 account is created ?
    
    Regards, Fred.
39.12MUA_CREATE.COMIOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeFri Mar 13 1992 12:106
    There's code in OA$LIB:MUA_CREATE.COM to copy WPSDEF.WPL into the new
    user's directory.
    
    Perhaps you should make sure that no-one has tampered with it!
