I agree; challenge the DBA to provide a working example.

"Let's start at the beginning, a very good place to start..." Windows 7 will only support the client tier. If you want to install the 8.5 server tiers onto a Windows platform, then they need to go onto a supported OS like Windows Server 2003 or 2008. Check the system requirements: http://w...

I think of the container as a place holder where the actual stages get plugged in at compile time (like an include file in programming), so I would not try passing a container name to the API function you mentioned.

That's good. Problem resolved now?

Has anything changed recently on the server configuration, such as SSL security? I would suggest you contact Support with the error message.

WTF stage... too funny! Create a file having the list of file names or file name prefixes. Create a Unix shell script that reads the file list, appends date info using the Unix date command and format options, and checks if each file exists.

Could be someone carelessly removed all D* files manually or by using a script.

Any chance there are extra characters hiding after CR/LF?

Suggest you work directly with your disk admin(s) and Unix admin(s)...

What is the actual output date, not the format this time around... If you know the actual date, it will confirm if input is Julian.

Yes, but what format is it in? Are you saying it's definitely Julian or do you know?

Just confirm the sample date you gave--what is the expected output date?

DateFromJulianDay() is probably correct then. It expects input of type uint32.
