AnswerBook2 Bugs

The ab2admin Command Intermittently Indicates command failed Even Though The Command Succeeded (4242577)

If the ab2admin command failes, the error message contains additional information besides Command failed. For example, it may also include path not found or invalid ID.

Workaround: If command failed is displayed, make sure that the operation failed. For example, if the command you submitted should have deleted a collection from the AnswerBook2 database, type the following command to verify that the collection is displayed in the database:

# ab2admin -o list

You can frequently ignore the message command failed when no additional information is provided.

ab2cd Script Displays an Erroneous Error Message (4256516)

During the startup of an AnswerBook2 server, the ab2cd script may display the following erroneous error message:

sort: can't read /tmp/ab1_sort.XXX: No such file or directory

This error message states that the ab2cd script has not located any of the AnswerBook1 (Display PostScript) collections on the CD.

Workaround: Ignore the error message.
