CIS 6.1 TCL 8.5 problem with open

[Paul Bishop]

We are in the process of upgrading our windows version of CIS from 5.8 to 6.1.1 and have a problem with a TCL script that opens for write a file on a different server.  under 5.8, the command is:

set ofileid [open \servernameobdg_prd$AMBULATORYMedflowDIPtest.PDF w]

and it works fine under 5.8.  When I try to run it under 6.1.1, I get:

[xlt :xlat:ERR /0:medflow_prod_xlate:–/–/—- –:–:–] result = ‘couldn’t open “\servernameobdg_prd$AMBULATORYMedflowDIPtest.PDF”: invalid argument’

[xlt :xlat:ERR /0:medflow_prod_xlate:–/–/—- –:–:–] errorInfo: ‘

Any ideas on what changed so that I can’t explicitly set the server/path?

note to self:  make sure that the services is started up with the right user/password…. 😳

This is why I don’t like working on window servers.

Paul:

Glad you found the problem.  But I am confused.  Are you sure that is the string in your open statement?  If I ask Tcl to evaluate that string I get:

            servernameobdg_prd$AMBULATORYMedflowDIP        est.PDF

I am not sure that is what you want.  However you say it works.  I just wonder how.  Am I missing something here?

[Paul Bishop]

I have a set for the path and file name prior to the open:

set path “\\server_name\obdg_prd$\AMBULATORY\MedflowDIP\”

set file_name “$doc_uid.PDF”

set path_file “$path$file_name”

set ofileid [open $path_file w]

All the special characters are escaped in the set.
