Why the month is missing

zhaogui — Mon, 06 May 2002 00:29:39 GMT

Hi,
Anybody knows how come I can compile and run my my program successfully on nodeA using Ansi C compiler, but after I copied it over to nodeB, where there is no Ansi C developer's bundle, the program generated a wrong output which does not contain month data as I expected on nodeA? More strangely, if I copied the source code to nodeC with Ansi C bundle and compiled it there and then copied it to nodeB, then the result is correct. In above compilation, I used "cc -Aa" option to make code Ansi-compliant.

Thanks,

Are you compiling on NodeB or just copying the executables to it? Any warnings thrown up during compilation?

I only compiled the source code on nodeA or nodeC since there is no Ansi C bundle installed on nodeB.

The problem now is when I copied the executable to nodeB and run it I am getting the incorrect result. But this can be solved if I copied it from nodeC to nodeB rather than from nodeA.

When I compiled the source code using "cc src.c -o src.o -Aa" on either nodeA or nodeC, I always got the following warning message,

/usr/ccs/bin/ld: (Warning) At least one PA 2.0 object file (src.o) was detected. The linked output may not run on a PA 1.x s
ystem.

Would it be possible to paste src.c here? And the output?

It is not convienient to paste source code here because it is so huge and also requires input data file. But the executable can be run on nodeA or nodeC without any problem. All nodes are running HP-UX 11.00 with 64 bits.

Did you compare the patch levels on NodeA and NodeC?

You are right. Just now I checked the patch level. On nodeC, there is patch PHSS_22272 1.0 ANSI C compiler cumulative patch. But it does not exist on nodeA.

Do you think this difference will affect the output behaviour of the executables?

I thought PHSS_22272 was related to Oracle, but it won't hurt to try.
