Find not working, gives error message

Jim,
I was not aware of what an event file is or how it is used. The problem was in the library list, not the event file.


Maha,
I do not remember setting a current library. Maybe this happens at install. I had lots of trouble with my install. Changing to QGPL solved the problem.
This is a pretty big problem for new users of RDI. With the cryptic error message, all the user knows is "search doesn't work in RDI"
I do force myself to use RDI, but I am still faster in PDM. Problems like this make my acceptance slower. On a performance note, PDM searched about 600 members for "unique" and got results in about 5 seconds. RDI took about 3 to 5 minutes. Yes, the results are right there in RDI and I can click to open, but if searches take so much longer, that advantage is not worth it. ---Dale

I have seen something like this when WDSC created an event file that was capable of only one member. HTH Jim

The underlying problem is that we store the search results in QGPL/EVEVENT,
or in the current library if you have a *CURLIB set.
If you change your current library from QSYS to a library that you have
access to, this should resolve the problem.
We are looking into providing a better recovery message or fix to this
issue.
