Have you ever gotten one of these, in your JDE.LOG: ODB0000027 - JDBODBC_DescribeTable failed. Table F55FILE. Generally, the Describe Errors occur due to one of a few reasons: - The table has not been generated on the server (or within the environment the process is logged into)
- Verify the table exists, either through SQL or physically looking at the database
- If it is not there - Generate It.
- The Specifications for the table where the process is running, differ from the actual table.
- If the developer has added, modified or deleted a column to the table 'since' it was last generated, then the specs are different - and, thus, the error message
- Make sure the 'client' has the latest specification (has accepted all package builds?)
- If the specs are correct, but the table is out-dated, work with the developer or DBA to save the old data, generate the table, then copy the data back into the new format
- OCM is not pointing to the right location
- The issue could occur because the table is supposed to be shared across all environments - and OCM is not pointing from each environment to the target location
These are a couple of the Table Describe Errors that are fairly common. If I'm missing one that you've come across - Comment about it, and I'll update the sheet.
