Re: SQR viewer - (SQR 5) Corrupt message file: Invalid header information

[Grant Chappell <gchappell@CARRERACONSULTING.COM>]

Here is the answer I got from PeopleSoft.  Your response is the same as #2.

A few things to check:

1)  What is the version of SQR that you are trying to use?  Please refer to
the file called VERSION in the SQRBINW directory.

2)  Do you have a file call SQRVERR.DAT (this is different than SQRERR.DAT)
in the SQRBINW directory?  Try re-loading it from the CD.

3)  In the SQR.INI file, you should have the SQRDIR environment variable
defined under the [Environment:Common] and [Environment:ODBC] sections.
They should both point to the SQRBINW directory -- the directory where the
SQRW.EXE and SQRWV.EXE reside.

4)  What type of network are you currently on?  Banyan Vines? NFS? Other?

All you need to do is to replace sqrverr.dat file from your release
media, i.e., installation diskette. That'll correct the problem.
