#112707 - 2004-01-28 08:29 PM Crazy limitation in KiX or Windows???
jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	I have a script that reads IP addresses or hostnames in from a text file. When the list is exactly longer than 1000 lines, the script exits immediately with no errors. Reduce to 1000 and all is well. This happens not matter how I launch Kix: from a batch file, direct on the command prompt, Start>Run, .lnk, etc. Now, I use ConTEXT as my editor which uses to Conexec.exe as command line wrapper. I can run the script from my editor now matter how many lines in the text file??!!?!? BUT, if I copy that command line using conexec.exe and run it from the command line, it fails yet again!!!!???? WTF. So, is this a Kix issue or a Windows issue? If you'd like the code, PM me with your e-mail. _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	Only 12000 chars. It has to do with lines, 1000 is ok, 1001 is bad. I e-mailed the code to your hotmail account with instructions. _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	well well... 4.20 did do nothing on my wksta. it just quit immediately. 4.21 is currently running 100% cpu time with 0% processed. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	I believe that I packaged it with 4.22 which would just exit. If you're seeing 0%, at least it's moving. Try reducing the list.txt file to 1000 lines, and all should work fine. Even better populate with your own IP addresses or hostnames and it will speed up and actually produce data. But at least you're confirming the behaviour. _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	the exe you had was, iirc build 129 a.k.a 4.20 and, it wasn't moving, killed it after about 20 mins with 0% still in there... afaik, it stopped at the very first step. I will probably have a new quick lookie at it later. btw, kix has a habit of silently quitting when there is com-problem. so, I think I will reduce your checks a little, just will get of the function calls (you could comment them out too). this way you can trace where exactly is the problem. cheers _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Normally we haven't any problem with running scripts above 25.000 lines or scripts with one line above 500.000 characters length. greetings. _________________________ email scripting@wanadoo.nl homepage scripting@wanadoo.nl \| Links \| Summary of Site Site KiXforms FAQ kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| FAQ & UDF help file UDF kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| mirror USA \| mirror europe UDF scriptlogic library collection UDFs \| mirror MCA

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	EH! It's not the number of lines in the script, it's the number of lines in the text file the script reads. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

MCA MCA KiX Supporter Registered: 2000-04-28 Posts: 5152 Loc: Netherlands, EU	Thanks Les, To point us back on track. Normally we are using additional EXE file to read text files with those sizes. greetings. _________________________ email scripting@wanadoo.nl homepage scripting@wanadoo.nl \| Links \| Summary of Site Site KiXforms FAQ kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| FAQ & UDF help file UDF kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| mirror USA \| mirror europe UDF scriptlogic library collection UDFs \| mirror MCA

jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	The size of the file is relatively small. 1000 lines is not unreasonable. Are we stating that this is a problem with kix? _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
