- I'm running SQL*Menu 5.0.11.3.1 on a 386 box with Interactive UNIX
- System 5, Release 4.0, Version 3.0. My RDBMS is 6.0.33.1.2. I'm
- having a lot of problems with sql*menu core dumping. The main problem
- is that runmenu50 core dumps when I hit the [Exit] key (I'm running
- a vt100 emulation and have no problems with SQL*Forms). It also dumps
- if I hit the [Application Menu] key.
-
- The technical support people seem to be clueless. They just keep
- chanting their mantra "you should upgrade." I'm getting a little
- tired of this attitude of dealing with buggy versions of their products
- by telling their customers just to upgrade. It's often inconvenient,
- difficult, or impossible for us to upgrade. Many times installing a
- newer version of something to solve one problem introduces five new
- problems.
-
- Has anyone else run into difficulties with SQL*Menu? If so, do you
- have any hints or tips that would be useful?
-
- While I'm waiting (over a day, now) for Oracle technical support to
- figure out what's wrong, I'm turning to the net for help. People here
- often seem to know their products and problems better than Oracle
- does.
