APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Client installs AD 5.1.0.0 on a server using the hostname of
    "localhost" and configures the server.
    In the process "localhost" (without the quotes) is used in all
    UNC path names in the server's configuration.
    All functionality seems to work fine and (local) Analyze Client
    is able to view analysis options for the projects, except that
    when trying to view a Flow Chart, a message like the following
    is displayed in Analyze Client:
    " Invalid flowchart file for PGMABCD_6.xml!"
    where PGMABCD is the name of the program for which the user
    was trying to generate a flowchart.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • "localhost" is not resolved correctly as "127.0.0.1" in some
    specific situations.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Code was changed so that "localhost" is correctly resolved as
    "127.0.0.1".
    

Temporary fix
