The Question is: I have a customer that has two boxes, One an ES40 Dual Processor 1Gb Mem other an 2100 4 Processor 512Gb mem. The customer Compiles a Cobol Program in Debug mode on the ES40, no Problem, but when he compiles the same Cobol Program on the 2100 it Fails wit h the following error: SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO, access violation, reason mask=00, virtual address=0000000000000003, PC=00000000005480EC, PS=0000001B. This only happens on the 2100 not the ES40 and only if Debug is on, with nodebug the file compiles fine. Both mac hines are running Open VMS 7.2-1 and both are running Cobol 2.6. Please help because the 2100 is their Development machine. Is there any known bug? Patch, or something? Please help, Regards Deon Laubscher. The Answer is : The code at PC=00000000005480EC is attempting to access data at virtual address 0000000000000003. (Please see previous discussions of the access violation information, and please see HELP/MESSAGE for the ACCVIO return.) You can sometimes resolve this using the full LINK/MAP and the full machine code listings from the compiler. You can also often use the debugger to detect this. This error could be a problem with COBOL, or this problem could be a problem with the application code. Both are equally possible here. Please see topic (7552) for information on debugging an application, and pointers to related topics. As for the COBOL environment here, COBOL 2.6 is no longer supported. Please move to the current COBOL version (V2.8-1286, as of this writing), and please install the current COBOL RTL ECO (if any) for the OpenVMS release in use. The OpenVMS Alpha V7.2-1 release is also outdated, and an upgrade to a more current (and supported) release is recommended. For information on available patches and RTL updates for COBOL and other environments, please see the ECO website referenced in the FAQ. The COBOL compiler upgrade is available on the standard layered product or product-specific distribution kits, as layered products are typically not available for anonymous downloads.)
