! V5R3M0 Operating System: IBM APAR: II13869 - Email MSF Failure with a TCP5104 message.
S4i Express creates temporary email files in the IFS /tmp directory. In I5/OS release V5R3M0 the default
Restricted rename and unlink attribute (also known as the S_ISVTX mode bit) for this directory was set
to *YES which restricts MSF from removing the temporary email files and causes MSF to terminate.
The S_ISVTX mode bit for the /tmp directory MUST be set to *NO in order for MSF and S4i Express email to
function properly. Use the following command to change the attribute:
CHGATR OBJ('/tmp') ATR(*RSTDRNMUNL) VALUE(*NO)
You should also apply PTF: 5722SS1/SI13011
S4i Express automatically sets the attribute to *NO during the PTF or product installation process.

Important Information
Upgrading to S4i Express 3.01 PTF13 and Higher.
This Information Applies When Installing S4i Express Version 3.01.13 and Higher the First
time over Any Prior (2.07 or Earlier 3.01) Version, (3.01.00 to 3.01.12).
This information DOES NOT apply if you already have S4i Express 3.01 PTF-13 or higher
installed.
Overview
PTF 13 introduced an additional database constraint to enforce uniqueness of the Index Entity Id field in the
Index Entry table (IDXENT). This field is used internally and its uniqueness is fundamental to the integrity of
any indexes created and to the access of those indexes by WebView and HostView.
Defects in the indexing task prior to PTF 13 could have caused records to be created in IDXENT with duplicate
Entity Id fields. These records will cause a failure in the PTF Installation process .
Finding and resolving the duplicate entries is necessary before installing the next PTF. A new command “Check
Duplicate Indexes” (CHKDUPIDX) is provided to identify and optionally fix the duplicate entries.
Getting the CHKDUPIDX command:
1. The command is available on the S4i Systems FTP site (ftp.s4isystems.com) or available by email by
contacting S4i by phone or at support@s4isystems.com.
Installation
Install the command as follows:
1. Un-zip the save file
2. Transfer the save file to a library on your iSeries
3. Restore the objects to your Express library using the following command:
RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(CHKDUPIDX)
DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(<Library>/CHKDUPIDX)
MBROPT(*ALL) ALWOBJDIF(*ALL) RSTLIB(S4IXP)
Run Instructions:
The command (CHKDUPIDX) has 5 options. Press the F1 (Help) key to see an explanation of the parameter use.
The parameters are:
Find duplicate entries . . .
Print duplicate entries . .
Remove duplicate entries . .
Re-index affected documents

Important Information
S4i Express 3.01 PTF-20+
S4i Express 3.01 PTF-20 changes in the way Express handles indexes which have at least
one “Display only” examination point.
Implementing the changes required by this PTF will cause the segment and index database tables be converted to
a new format. The conversion is started during the PTF installation process and will need to be completed by you
after the PTF is installed.
1. Run the pre-installation check program (CHKPTF20) which will produce a report a report QPQXPRTF with
a owner of QSECOFR and User Data of DSPONLY. This report identifies the Document definition
name, Index name, and version number range (lowest & highest) of any documents affected by this PTF.
2. If the report shows no indexes with “Display only” examination points, then you are NOT affected by the
design change and you can proceed with a normal installation.
3. The PTF should be installed using the normal installation procedure.
4. The PTF installation process will automatically perform the following steps:
4.1.
Identify indexes with any “Display only” examination point.
4.2.
Identify document versions which use these indexes, these documents may need to be re-segmented
and re-indexed.
4.3.
Restructure the Segment and Index tables to conform to the new design.
4.4.
Copy existing Segment and index data to the new tables.
5. It will be necessary for you to reindex all version of the documents identified during the PTFpre-installation
process in order to get your “Display only” index values to display the correct data.
5.1.
Use the SEGREPS command to segment the document version as follows:
5.1.1
SEGREPS DST(*NO) REPNME(docname) REPVERF(lowvernbr) REPVERT(highvernbr)
Where:
REPNME =
Document definition name to re-segment and re-index
REPVERF =
Starting version number to process
REPVERT =
Ending version number to process
6. Your documents with indexes containing “Display only” examination points may not display properly in
the S4i Express WebView document list until you have finished the re-index process.

Important Information
Notice:
1. S4i Express contains programs that run with adopted authority. None of these programs contain a command
line interface.
The system also contains a program object (RYGETSFM) that runs in system state. This program is used to
get the spool file number of the current spool file.
You must have the system value QALWOBJRST set to *ALL or specify *ALWSYSSTT and
*ALWPGMADP in order to install or restore the S4i Express product library (S4IXP).
On OS/400 V5R1 and above, you must also have the system value QVFYOBJRST set to option “1" (Do not
verify signatures on restore. Restore all objects regardless of their signature.)
2. S4i Express creates 2 user profiles on your AS/400 system. The ZADMIN user profile is the default owner
for all subsystem profile jobs and new objects. The ZUSER user profile is used in testing the system and
may be deleted after completing your evaluation.
These profiles are created in *DISABLED status in order to not violate your security. You will need to
enable the ZUSER profile to use the test and demonstration procedures outlined in the section
“S4i Express Starter System”.
3. Make sure that the S4i Express profile is ended before you backup the S4i Express libraries. You can add the
End Automated Profile (ENDATMPRF) command and Start Automated Profile (STRATMPRF)
command to your backup procedure in order to stop and start your profile. These commands are in the
S4IXP library.
4. Important! You must currently be on S4i Express Version 2 Release 07 or greater before upgrading to S4i
Express Version 3 Release 1.
5. Important! All user EXIT programs are removed from the S4i Express product library (S4IXP) during a
product upgrade. It is recommended that you store EXIT programs in another library.
6. S4i Express Profile Job Descriptions are removed from the S4i Express product library during a product
upgrade. It is recommended that you store your Job Descriptions in another library.
7. The current version of S4i Express does not support the 5250 viewing, indexing and examination point
creation of PDF documents where the text is not stored internally in ASCII format.
8. S4i Express WebView V3R1 requires the following web server environment: Java 2 Standard Edition
(Version 1.4 or later), Servlet 2.3, JavaServer Pages 1.2.
9. S4i Express WebView V3R1 contains installation scripts for the following web application servers: IBM
WebSphere 6.0, ibm wEBsPHERE 6.1, Apache Tomcat 5.5, Apache Tomcat 6.0. S4i Express WebView
may be manually installed under other application servers.
10. S4i Express version starting with 3.01.13 are i5/OS V6.R1.M0 compatible. You will need to run the
STROBJCN LIB(s4ixp) command after installation.
11. Important! After installing the Elite product, issue the following command:
CHGDTAARA DTAARA(FMG/DSLOADTFLD) VALUE('N')

Important Information
Known problems:
1. There was a defect in the automatic creation of examination points from index buddy files. These
examination points are generally created the first time you capture a document to a new document
definition from the S4i WebView Capture, S4i Desk Top Capture, or one of our imaging partners. The
defect will NOT allow you to view the examination point list as it places non-displayable characters in
the description field. Use an SQL statement similar to the following to remove all examination point
values from the Document Definition and re-add them manually.
DELETE FROM library.EXAMPT EXAMPT
WHERE EXAMPT.REPNME = 'document definition name';
Operational Changes:
Please see the document Express_Upgrade_3_01_vnn.pdf for all the new facilities and changes in this release.
1. Two user profiles (ZADMIN and ZUSER) are automatically created. ZADMIN will (by default) be the
owner of S4i Express subsystem profile jobs and objects. You can change this default by changing your
subsystem profile job description. ZUSER is a profile that is used for demonstration and training
purposes. Both user profiles are created in *DISABLED status. You will not need to enable the
ZADMIN profile.
2. A new command “Reset definitions” (RESETDEF) was added. This command will recreate all Default
system definitions to their original shipped value. In addition, the command will create/recreate the S4i
Express starter profile and training system objects (job queues, print queues, spool files, report definitions,
archives, online repositories, etc.). Warning: Do not use this command without checking with S4i Systems
Inc Support!
3. The definition of Horizontal DPI and Vertical DPI Graphic resolution values for PDF images has been
changed from default to override. Any values you enter in these fields on the PDF Images - Graphic File
(PI2201) screen panel will override the value contained in the graphic file. Previously, the values would
only apply if the graphic file did not contain a horizontal and vertical dpi value. Note: You very seldom
have to put a value in either of these fields.
i5/OS Job Log Access:
S4i Express administrators should have the authority to view i5/OS job logs in the QEZJOBLOG queue. This can
be accomplished by giving the S4i Express Administrator *SPLCTL authority or changing the output queue
authority for the QEZJOBLOG output queue. See “Planning printer and printer output queue security” in the
i5/OS information center. The following link will take you to this section of the V6R1 information center:

Changes implemented:
1. Add message PDF158A to PDF creation service program to inform that a PDF image file definition has the
same name as one of the segments.
Image file definitions with the same name as a segment are used to override the size and positioning of
AFPDS pages in the output PDF document and CANNOT be used as standard PDF image definition

2. Add a *REPAIR function to the WebView performance enhancement installer (ZIDXSEG) command. The
repair function will replace or install the required program objects to the product library and install any
missing database indexes to the database library.
The PTF and product upgrade installer has been changed to run this function if the WebView performance
enhancements have already been installed. APAR - XP20140509.01
3. Change the WebView Automated Profile start up and end routines to change the way the index cleanup
function is run.
Previously the cleanup function was run when a request to end the profile was being processed, for most
implementations this worked adequately, but for the few where a large index database had been created
this caused an unacceptable delay in the profile ending.
Now the cleanup function will be submitted as an independent job to the WebView Automated Profile
subsystem when the subsystem starts. The cleanup task will run in the background and will not prevent
user access to WebView documents.
To prevent the task being submitted create a data area called ZCS0040 with a value of '*NO' in a library

23. Fix the defect in the Check Repository (CHKRPS) command where multiple repository version (RPSVER)
rows were incorrectly created. This occurs when documents have been initially captured to one
repository, then the document definition is been changed to start capturing documents to a second
repository.
If CHKRPS is run using the RETRIEVE(*YES) option then the rows for documents in the original
repository are changed to the name of the second repository and an additional row is added with the
original repository name, this additional row is incomplete and unusable.
If CHKRPS is run again the process is repeated creating another additional incomplete row. This
occurred because the Check Repository (CHKRPS) command was attempting to move documents in
the previous repository to the current repository.
The command does not now attempt to do that, moving documents from previous repositories to the
current repository is achieved using archiving and retrieval. APAR - XP20130920.03

17. Enhance the Automated task start and stop commands to provide more flexibility in the way the mix
of tasks in a profile can be manipulated:
17.1. Add a "Status" parameter to the "End automated task" (ENDATMTSK) command, this
parameter is used to set the status of the task after it has been ended, for example:
ENDATMTSK PROFILE(AAA) TASK(BBB) STATUS(*HELD) will end task BBB in
profile AAA and set the status to *HELD. This effectively ends the task and prevents it
being immediately restarted by the profile controller task.
17.2. Implement a STRATMTSK command to start an individual task in a profile, the task must be
already defined in a profile that is currently active. The STRATMTSK command sets the
task to *READY status which allows the profile controller to start the task during its
normal processing cycle.

then the document definition is changed to use a new plan.
When the Run Archive Movement (RUNARCMOV) command is run the document continues to be
moved based on the rules defined in its original plan instead of its current plan.
In the "Archived items" screen panels the "Plan name" field is now shown as "Captured plan name"
providing a more accurate meaning for the column. This column shows the name of the plan that
was responsible for moving the document to its existing archive location.
The plan that is currently assigned to the document is in the document definition.

6.
Change the WebView start automated profile procedure to do additional checks before the profile is
started. A lock is now placed on the WebView task data area to ensure that no other job has
already got a lock which would interfere with the correct running of the profile.
If this new lock cannot be obtained the profile ends and information is placed in the joblog. It can
take up to 30 second for this startup cycle to complete. APAR - XP20120605.01,
APAR - XP20120627.01, APAR - XP20120530.02
7.
Change the WebView controller task to keep a count of the total number of server tasks submitted
since the profile was started.
It is normal for server tasks to start and stop as the workload changes, this modification sets an
absolute maximum to prevent abnormal conditions where many hundreds or thousands of jobs
can be submitted and overwhelm a system.
If the total number of server tasks submitted exceeds the "Maximum servers to submit" value then
the profile is ended immediately. The default "Maximum servers to submit" is set internally at
1000.
If you want to set a different value, create a data area to hold your required value. For example if
you want the profile to end after 100 tasks have been submitted then create the data area as
follows: CRTDTAARA DTAARA(ZMAXSVRSBM) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(5) VALUE('100')
The data area should be created in a library that is included in the automated profile library list.

9.
Change the End Automated Profile function to only set the profile status back to *READY after
then subsystem has ended. Currently the status is set to *READY, then the request to end the
subsystem is issued. This can create a situation on a heavily loaded system where a request to
start a profile is permitted before the previous request to end has fully completed. The
consequences are:
The profile appears to start but in fact it does not because the subsystem has ended.
Jobs are left abandoned in the profile job queue with no active subsystem to service them.
The profile status can remain at *STARTING.
Two server controller jobs (job name ZZ990SVRCTL) can be started. APAR - Internal
10. Fix the defect where long running Automated Tasks would not end when requested by option
15=End or the End Automated Profile (ENDATMPRF) command. This occurred because of a
conflict between the delay time set for the end request to be actioned and the delay time being
used by the End of File Delay (EOFDLY) parameter being used by the task to read requests from
the request queue.

18. Fix the defect when starting a distribution Automated Profile where more than the maximum
number of server tasks could be started.
This could occur if another process outside of Express had placed a lock on one of the Express
server control data areas. For example a library save operation puts a *SHRNUP lock on the data
area, previously this would cause multiple server jobs to be submitted, with this fix the task
status will be set to *ERROR and no server jobs will be submitted. If this occurs the joblog for
the controller task Z990SVRCTL will contain the message CPF1002 "Cannot allocate object

33. Change the way the special buddy file value $RPTID is handled to allow document capture and
scanning applications to submit index buddy files without having to specify a special value in the
Document Class field.
Previously the Document Class had to be set to a special value of "DeskTopCapture" or
"DeskTopArchive" to have the $RPTID field used. If any other value was pased then regular

and the database being corrupted with possible loss of data, which may require documents to be
re-indexed.
If previous versions of database tables are detected the PTF installation will be cancelled and
message ZIN0091 "Installation cancelled, object XXXXXXXXXX already exists" will be issued.
Note: Installation of the PTF cannot be completed until these old copies are removed. The objects
should only be removed after the reason that they exist is established. For assistance in resolving
this issue please contact product support. APAR - XP20110406.01

31. Fix the defect in ad-hoc mail distribution where the message subject or return details are not
properly resolved. The effect of this defect can be seen in one of the following ways:
31.1. The value of *DEFAULT is used in the message subject instead of the text defined in the
default system options.
31.2. The value of *DEFAULT is used in the message address which causes errors in the
CrtMimeF() function.
31.3. The email message is not delivered with no error message logged in the mail distribution
task. This may indicate that some invalid data has been passed to the CrtMimeF() or
SndMimeF() function. This situation should be investigated by tracing the iSeries mail

"PD0IFSIDX/PdkGetPdfA error 500" (PDK1000) error or some of the index keys and values will
be invalid.
This problem is caused by a defect in the PD0IFSIDX service program GetNextToken() not
supporting numeric (non-quoted) tokens
An odd number of numeric key/value fields cause the PDK1000 error to occur. An even number of
numeric key/value fields cause invalid keys and data to occur.

Changes implemented:
1.
Change the recognition function to support the use of the "User defined option" fields in recognition
rules. Use one or more of these special values: *USROPT1, *USROPT2, *USROPT3,
*USROPT4 in any recognition rule.
The user defined options can be set when a spooled file is created by using the CRTPRTF,
OVRPRTF commands or afterwards by using the CHGSPLFA command. XP20101104.01

Fix the defect in HostView and WebView where index items are not displayed in the correct
alphabetical sequence. XP20101104.01
3.
Modify PDF file output service program to properly output up to 10 pdf keywords from the input
PDF file. Each keyword may be up to 20-characters in size and are should be separated by a
comma or space character in the input file. XP20101102.02

Attributes panel. XP20101123.01
6.
Add a new function (AddPdfItm()) to PDF creation service program to add all pages of a PDF file
to the PDF file being created. This function only adds a previously captured document, it does
NOT call the PDF page exit programs so additional page text and images cannot be added
XP20101119.01
7.
Fix the defect where the mass change function does not work when changing the "Display order" or
"Display only" values for an index examination point. XP20100119.01
8.
Fix the defect where HostView returns items in the list that should have been excluded by the filter
selection criteria. This occurs when more than one document exists with names that start with the
same character sequence.
For example; if documents exist with the following names: ZSALES, ZSALES01, ZSALES02 and
ZSALES03 and you enter ZSALES into the document name, then items were returned for the
ZSALES document and the ZSALES01, ZSALES02 and ZSALES03 documents, this is the same
behavior as if ZSALES* had been entered.
The segment select field in the filter also behaved the same way.
This remedy makes HostView handle generic and non-generic filter selection properly.

Fix the defect when deleting archived items from a "read only" archive location, such as a network
attached storage device that allows once only write.
If this device type is used as an archive location, the location should be set up with a media type of
*WORM, when archiving tries to delete the archived item, no attempt will be made to delete the
file from the device.
If an archive location is set up with a media type of *IFS an attempt will always be made to delete
the file, if the operation to delete the file fails a message will be issued. XP20101014.02

issued in the Automated Tasks list. This occurs when there are more than 99999 requests in the
queue for one of the tasks. XP20100406.02, XP20100920.07
13. The IFS monitor task for PDF files appears to go into a loop if an invalid PDF file is monitored and
the attributes (meta data) cannot be extracted. The file may be stuck in the monitored directory
or placed in the ignored directory.
The monitor service program was changed to attempt to move the file to the /Processed/Errors
directory.
The functions were also changed to support files sizes greater than 2Gb. XP20101130.01
14. Add new property to RYPUTSRV.H/_RpsO structure to support Planet Press. Re-bound all
programs and service programs that us the _RpsO structure. XP20101120.01
15. Add Document Id to the completion message for the ADDWDIDX command. Internal

convertPDF function is too small to hold the converted text data, CloseTranslate was not called.
This would leave iConv() descriptors open. Calls to iConv() would eventually fail and the
distribution task joblog would show message MCH3601 issued by program QTQSRVP2, module

27. Implement a change to provide alternative methods for creating the final spooled file in the
destination output queue when the form definition name is F1DFLT and the library is blank:
Implement a data area called ZF1DFLT, type *CHAR, length 30 bytes with the following layout
and values:
Bytes 1-10 Action if AFPDS='Y', values are *COPY or *MOVE
Bytes 11-20 Action if AFPDS='N', values are *COPY or *MOVE
Bytes 21-30 Disposition of ZWORKQ file if method is *COPY, values are *LEAVE or
*DELETE
This data area will control how spooled files created in ZWORKQ will be transferred to the
destination output queue. If the data area does not exist the defaults of *COPY, *COPY and
*DELETE will be used, these values replicate the processing that would have occurred prior to
implementing this modification. XP20110104.01
28. Add new PDF page exit program (ZEX125) that will select an overlay for a page from the PDF
Images list, based on Exanimation point data on the page. This exit can be used in those cases
where there is no PDF Image Location option that will work.
The PDF Image Location option can be set to *EXIT to not have the image selected for any other
location in the output document.

If an index was used with more than one examination point and the first examination point was
set to *ALL and the second examination point was set to a generic value, the request returned no

would issue a MCH0601 error and no other documents would be captured. APAR XP20100729.01
18. Fix the defect where a network user's document list would contain items that the user is not
authorized to see. This occurs when the index view control entry for the network destination only
contained a value in the fourth or fifth index examination data element. APAR - XP20100727.03
19. Handle overlapping text during PDF to text conversion. Some PDF documents contain two text
strings that are positioned at the same Cartesian coordinates. The current PDF to text conversion
will print the first string then the second. Now the second string will attempt to overlay the first.
If there are non-space characters already existing at that position, the second string characters
will not be printed. APAR - XP20100803.01
20. In PDF documents font dictionaries are usually a reference in the resources section of a PDF page. It
is possible to specify an instance of a font dictionary instead. RYPDFXLIB now handles
instances of a font dictionary in the resources section of a PDF page. APAR - XP20100803.02
21. Change the validation rules for email addresses to allow the equal "=" character in the name part of
the address.
22. Add the index entity Id to the active bundle segments table. This allows for a future enhancement to
bundle index items. APAR - Internal
23. Add a sample indexing exit function to retrieve examination data from a variable location on a
page. An examination point or the whole page is searched to locate a "reference" text value and
then the actual examination data is retrieved using line and position offset values from the
location found in the search.
23.1. The exit is implemented by creating a *BEFORE *INDEX exit for an index, using the
ZEX085 command. Full usage instructions for the command can be found in the source
member ZEX085 in source file QTXTSRC.

PTF number: 23
PTF date:
12 May 2010
Changes implemented:
1.
In the F9=Marking screens the document version list (SF2140_S) shows the correct user data
column, but when option 8=Attributes is selected, the detail panel (SF0801) shows the user
value, not user data.
When an examination point for the user data attribute is created and used in a segmentation rule the
user attribute is used instead of user data. Note: These defects apply only to documents that have
been captured as PDFs after being processed by Elite. APAR - XP20100215.01
2.
Fix the defect which causes message MCH1210 "Receiver value too small to hold result." to be
issued by the segmentation task program CS1400, statement 202700.
This occurs when a document definition has been transferred from another instance and the new
document definition replaces an existing definition with additional segments. The new segments
are added but have a corrupt Segment Entity Id. The corrupt entity Id is not visible using the
segment maintenance panels, but it causes a failure in the segmentation task. APAR XP20100216.01
3.
Implement new functionality to provide two options for creating indexes with multi-value
examination data.
Option 1. Sub-Values Combined with Matching Elements. When more than 1 multi-value
examination point is included in an index each sub-value is matched to its corresponding
sub-value in the other multi-value examination points. If the multi-value examination points are
unbalanced the final sub-value in the shorter list is associated with each of the additional
sub-values in the longer lists.
Option 2. Sub-Values Combined with All Elements. When more than 1 multi-value examination
point is included in an index each sub-value is matched to all the other sub-values in the other
multi-value examination points.
The option is selected according to the presence and value of an environmental variable in the
indexing task. To select option 1 create an environment variable called
'S4I_IDX_MV_EXAM_DTA' with a value of 'MATCHING_ELEMENTS'. To select option 2
create an environment variable called 'S4I_IDX_MV_EXAM_DTA' with a value of
'ALL_ELEMENTS'. APAR - XP20100217.01
Note: If no environment variable exists the default option processing method is used.
The environment variable can be set using an Automated Task exit on the indexing (*INDEX) task;
Position is '*BEFORE, Point is *TASK and Command is:
ADDENVVAR ENVVAR('S4I_IDX_MV_EXAM_DTA') VALUE('ALL_ELEMENTS')

Fix the defect which causes message CPF4131 "Level check on file RD1601P in library ..." to be
issued by the Document Definition print program COLDEF.6 at statement 1000001.
APAR - XP20100222.01
5.
When using the F9 function file list with generic values (xxx*) the entries starting with xxx are
NOT returned.
Cause: The PATMATCH/PatMatch() function was changed in PTF19.11 to use the system regular
expression engine. This change caused standard iSeries generic values not to work.
This fix changes PatMatch checks for a generic value pattern xxx* and changes it to regular
expression "start of string expression" ^xxx.
Note: The regular expression pattern xxx* will NO LONGER return the expected results after this
fix.
In addition, the PAT1000 message with an error code of 200 will NOT be produced unless the
DEBUG environment variable is set. APAR - XP20100224.01
6.
Fix the defect where not all spooled files are displayed in the list when using the F9=Mark function.
APAR - XP20100224.02
7.
Fix the defect which prevents a spooled file attribute to be used to assign a name to a dynamic
distribution destination. For example; when a dynamic destination using the user data spooled
file attribute is specified the actual destination name is determined at run time, the destination
name resolves to be blank and message ATM0239 "ERROR - Dynamic destination &USRDTA
is blank." is issued. APAR - XP20100224.05

MCHnnn type errors. APAR - XP20100301.01
11. PDF output with a page size *CA is NOT producing tiff image documents pages properly. The
PDF page may be blank. APAR - XP20100305.01
12. Fix the defect where examination points created using a Kofax TIF image file name or extension are
blank and cannot be used for segmentation or indexing. APAR - XP20100306.01
13. The function to build a document list was incorrectly handling a filter when a -1 value was used for
the document version number.
If a filter specified -1 for the document version, an absolute document name, and any kind of
generic value (including *ALL) for the index criteria, then a single item was returned in the list
representing the most recent item that fits the criteria.

Now the item (or items) from the most recent version of the specified document that fit the index
criteria is returned. APAR - XP20100302.03
14. Fix the defect where the information user space is incomplete during the distribute to bundle
(*DSTBUNDLE) function. The current bundle name has not been put into the user space and is
therefore not available for use by a distribution exit. APAR - XP20100311.01
15. Add a feature to the "Close Active Bundle" (CLSACTBUN) command to provide the option of
closing or not closing a bundle if error segments exist. APAR - XP20100323.01
16. Fix the defect where RUNARCMOV does not delete archived items when the movement is defined
to not move the item, but to delete it using the "Exit function" feature. APAR - XP20100317.01
17. Add the "Segment sequence" number to the Bundle segments display list panel.
APAR - XP20100325.01
18. Create a "Merge Bundles" (MRGBUN) command to allow multiple bundles to be merged into one
merged bundle. The merged bundle can be an existing bundle where document segments are
added from the other merged bundles or it can be a new bundle which is created from all the
merged document segments. See help text on the use of the new command. APAR - Internal:
19. The "Use previous when blank" sample exit (ZEX030) does not return the correct index value in
some circumstances. The work variables are not being initialized at the proper time. The
"previous" value is stored internally in a program variable, if the next page processed is from a
different document and the examination point is blank, then the "previous" value from the
previous document is returned. APAR - XP20100426.02
20. Create an "Add Bundle Document" (ADDBUNDOC) command to allow documents to be added to
a bundle. This allows documents to be added anytime while the bundle exists without having
been previously specified as part of the bundle definition. APAR - XP20100426.07
21. Do not display the message "The product has not been tested on this version of OS/400." when
starting the product on i5/OS V7R1M0. APAR - XP20100330.07
22. Make the SNDxxxDEF commands compatible with i5/OS V7R1M0. APAR - XP20100330.03
23. Make the GETSPLF and PUTSPLF commands compatible with i5/OS V7R1M0. APAR XP20100330.04
24. Make the JDE OneWorld interface compatible with i5/OS V7R1M0. APAR - XP20100330.05
25. The EEM1100 message out of MM00100 is missing the input file name which causes all other
message fields to be mislabeled.
The er_infname variable and associated code was removed from the program when the program
was changed to support multiple attachments. The input file name field was NOT removed from
the EEM1100 message.
This fix puts the er_infname variable back into the program and puts the first attachment path
and file name in the field. APAR - XP20100430.01

26. Fix the defect in the RCVDEF command where the last version numbe from the document and
bundle definitions are being transferred from the source to the target system. For a new definition
the last version is now set to zero at the target system, and for an existing definition the last
version is preserved with the value from the source system.
This ensures that document and bundle version numbers continue to be allocated sequentially after
definitions are transferred. APAR - XP20100504.04
27. Fix the defect which causes message MCH3601 "Pointer not set for location referenced." to be
issued by prgoram SU2601, statement 34500 when option 6=Print is selected from the HostView
list panel HV1080_S. APAR - XP20100402.04
28. *START and *END location PDF attachments were not processing all pages in the attached PDF or
TIFF file if the page number was set to -1. These location attachments will produce a output PDF
page for each image in the attachment file. The output page size will be the same size as the
attachment therefore page sizes are NOT honored. APAR - XP20100430.03
29. Fix the defect in the WebView network user access module which caused an incomplete list of
items to be returned when the index consisted of more than 2 examination points. APAR XP20100504.03
30. Fix the defect where the "Image number" field is not being displayed in the correct format. When a
number is entered and the field minus key is pressed, the number now displays as 1-. APAR XP20100511.03

Notice:
1. A new command "Check Duplicate Indexes" (CHKDUPIDX) to identify, report and
optionally rectify a situation where index entity Ids have been re-used and duplicate
keys exist in the index entry table (IDXENT).
This duplication is most likely to exist at version 3.01 Ptf12 and below, Ptf13 introduced a
"unique" constraint on this table
This command is available to install and run on prior versions to check and rectify
these inconsistencies before trying to install this PTF. Please contact

Fix the defect in segmentation, indexing, distribution and bundling which causes message
RNX0100 "Length or start position is out of range for the string" by service program YY5003,
function XtrctBox() at statement 42900.
This was caused by the buffer overflowing because the longest line length was set at 1576, making

Change the WebView controller task to send a message that filter history is being collected when
the "Save filter history" option in the System Options General panel is set to *YES.
Filter history collection may be useful in diagnosing WebView performance issues. Each time a
filter is submitted from a WebView client, a filter history record is written to the FLTHST
database table recording the filter details and the time taken by the host task to process the
transaction.
Filter history collection is started as follows:
! End the WebView Automated Profile
! Change the "Save filter history" option to *YES

invalid document definition name is used. APAR - XP20091022.02
11. Some PDF input files do not contain font size information in the font table. This condition would
cause S4i Express to create long text lines when extracting the text from the PDF document. This

10. Change the index task to retry the function which updates the usage information if the index
definition is locked by another task. It will attempt to access the index definition up to 10 times.
This function occurs after all the indexes have been built and the task will complete processing
the document without updating the index usage details.
This problem can occur if there are multiple index tasks running and a large number of the same
documents are being processed simultaneously, for example if a large number of the same
document are being re-indexed.

13. Fixed a null pointer exception when processing "popup" annotations which were not created by
Express.
14. Added a modification to PDF to Text conversion. If text on a PDF page is rotated 90 degrees
clockwise, it is rotated back 90 degrees counter-clockwise during text conversion. If a PDF page
contains text that has both rotated and un-rotated text, there is a possibility that some text will
overlap after the rotation. The overlapping of the text can cause the location of the examination
data to move from document to document, even though the Cartesian coordinates of the data
defined in the PDF document have not changed. APAR - Internal

Complete the implementation of dynamic distribution, this completes an enhancement started in

For example: A spooled file with an internal value of 000001028 will now be returned as 1028,
previously it would be returned as 000001028. A value of 000000000 will now be returned as 0.

22. Fix the problem where the WebView controller task would keep starting processor tasks beyond the
"Maximum servers" limit defined in the Automated Task definition. This can occur when another
external process has any type of "no update" lock on the control data area in the data library. This
data area will have the same name as the automated task, ZWV is the default name.
External processes that may apply this type of lock include save operations and some high
availability software products. Objects of type *DTAARA, *USRSPC and *USRIDX with the
same name as the WebView automated task that are found in the data library are transient
objects used only when the WebView profile is active. These objects can be excluded from a
save operation.
After this Ptf is applied, worker tasks that cannot establish a lock on the control data will end. The
controller task will periodically submit new worker tasks, when the external lock is removed, the
worker tasks will continue to run in the normal way. Until this time WebView will not be
available. APAR - XP20080114.01

Changes implemented:
1.
When a segment is defined with "HostView indexes as *YES" and "Distribution order as
*DEFAULT", it is not distributed. Segmentation appears to complete, but a request to index and
distribute is not submitted. With this fix any segment defined in this way will be distributed as if
the "HostView indexes" attribute was set to *NO. APAR - XP20070411.03
2.
Using "F2=Mass change" on the WebView permissions page of the Destination Definition causes
the layout to be distorted. APAR - XP20070411.04

browser if the file name exceeded 60 characters. This could cause the improper or no viewer to
be selected by the clients browser. APAR - XP20070412.01

when there is a communications failure to the remote system and the remote OneWorld data
queue cannot be contacted. APAR - XP20070405.01
8.
The *FAX distribution task fails if there are execution errors in the fax API command. For
example: If the SNDFAXSPLF command uses a substitution variable for the recipient (RCP)
parameter and the resulting value has embedded spaces then the recipient parameter must be
coded with surrounding quotes, RCP('&VAR') would be valid, but RCP(&VAR) would fail. The
parameter could be entered either way and the error would become apparent at run time. APAR XP20070413.02
