9800 UDE action "Action" failed; ...

Uniface was unable to perform the specified action on Repository data.

Explanation

The UDE functionality supports compiling, exporting, importing, and converting or copying Repository data. It is used by IDE command line switches such as /cpy, /cpt, and so on, and it is available in ProcScript through the $ude function. It is not available to the Uniface runtime (uniface.exe).

The message itself will be one of the following:

  • 9800 - UDE action "Action" failed; cannot find IDE entity descriptors.

    This can occur if the entity descriptors (in ide.uar) cannot be found.

  • 9800 - UDE action "Action" failed; UDE function is not available at runtime.

    This can occur when using $ude or IDE command line switches with the Uniface runtime.

  • 9800 - UDE action "Action" failed; IDE component UUREPOS not found.

    This can occur if the UUREPOS component (in ide.uar) cannot be found..
