Rule Error

[pablo]

Hi,

Client upgraded from TM1 9.5.2 to Express 10.1

Now I get this error when opening a specific rux file: Dimension "TB Account" is referenced more than once.

If I start the model in TM 1 9.5.2 the error is gone. I have done some reading on the forum and it has something to do with the tm1s.lin (language) file that can be corrupt. Can anyone just guide me in the right direction please.

Should or can I replace the tm1s.lin file?

Thank You in advance

It is not to do with the language file. What has happened is that your search of the forum for the error message has exposed a post in which a complete list of the error message text was included in a response.

What you are seeing is probably a result of a tightening of the rule syntax checking that happened sometime between 9.4.1 and 9.5.2. What exact version of 9.5.2 does this rule work in?

If it is what I suspect then within a [ ... ], either on the left or the right of the = two or more items from the same dimensions are referenced without being enclosed in { ... } as described in the syntax documentation here http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocente ... rea_N70150.

Duncan,

Thank you for the reply

My rule was not correct(missed something small), but for some reason 9.5.2 FP 2 didn't mind the error and everything worked. Weird!!

But in Express 10 and TM1 10 I get the error. And there should be an error.

It is fixed now.


Thank you

Glad it's fixed now.

Would you mind posting the nature of the small error? It's potentially interesting for others in case it turns up again.

I just experienced this moving from 9.5.1 to 9.5.2 so perhaps that's where the change occurred.

E.g. this worked in 9.5.1 but not in 9.5.2:

Code: Select all

['dim1_elem', 'dim2_elem', 'dim3_elem', 'measure1', 'measure2'] = N: ...

Note that the two measures aren't parenthesised with {...}

So, when we upgraded to 9.5.2 and restarted the instance, this rule file wouldn't compile and needed to be changed to:

Code: Select all

['dim1_elem', 'dim2_elem', 'dim3_elem', {'measure1', 'measure2'}] = N: ...

I was a bit surprised that this was possible!

Also encountered exactly this when upgrading from 9.5.1 to 9.5.2.

... this also solves the server log error message "element <element> is from dimension <dimension> and an element from this dimension previously appears". Thank you for reporting this, you saved my day!
