Hi Peter,

Thanks for the test script.  I was initially also unable to reproduce
the error,
but finally ran into it under the conditions noted below.  Adding a
BUFFER
statement of any size at the end of the IMPORT statement prevents the
error from
occuring.

Here is the error message:

This is the script I used:



d org.enhydra.instantdb.jdbc.idbDriver;
o jdbc:idb:/home/mackem/dbtest/Examples/sample.prp;


drop table airports;
CREATE TABLE airports( facility_id CHAR(11) );
ALTER TABLE airports ADD type CHAR(13);
ALTER TABLE airports ADD airport_id CHAR(4);
ALTER TABLE airports ADD region CHAR(3);
ALTER TABLE airports ADD state_abbrev CHAR(2);
ALTER TABLE airports ADD latitude double;
ALTER TABLE airports ADD longitude double;
ALTER TABLE airports ADD elevation int;
ALTER TABLE airports ADD mag_var int;



IMPORT airports FROM "airports.txt" USING "airports_schema.txt";


CREATE INDEX airports_airport_id_Index ON airports (airport_id);

q select * from airports;


create index i1 on airports (airport_id);


c close;
c exit;




Next is airports_schema.txt:

[airports.txt]
ColNameHeader=False
CharacterSet=ANSI
Format=CSVDelimited
Col1=facility_id CHAR(11)
Col2=type CHAR(13)
Col3=airport_id CHAR(4)
Col4=region CHAR(3)
Col5=state_abbrev CHAR(2)
Col6=latitude long
Col7=longitude long
Col8=elevation int
Col9=mag_var int


Since  my airports.txt file is so long, I will only include a few lines,
but here are the first 10 lines of data, (out of 20, 000, but I had
troubles with using more than 630 .....but that is another message.)
The script should produce the error if you have more than 550 lines of
similar data.  Duplicating these lines should work.   I had included
this email with an attachment for the data file a couple of days ago,
but for some reason  that did not make it onto the message board.  The
script worked OK with 500 or fewer lines.
