I am having problems when exporting records to any file format (e.g. .arx,
.rep) when the report contains the status history field. I receive the
following error:
ARERR [91] RPC call failed : RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Unknown error.

I can export any other fields including diary and long text fields, but the
status history field gives this error even when exporting only one record
and just that field.

Can anyone else recreate this problem on Windows NT 4.0.3 User Tool? I
don't have this problem when I use my 3.2 Unix tool. I have a ticket in
with Remedy, but I thought I'd see if anyone else had this problem.

Thanks!

Have you by any chance renamed the Status field to something else like
'Ticket Status' ?

There is a bug in 4.03 patch 850 which does not recognise the actual field
name and defaults to looking for 'Status-History.New.USER' instead of
'Ticket Staus-History.New.USER' and as the field name doesn't exist, it
times out or gives an error. Remedy are aware of the problem and have fixed
it in unofficial patches (not put through the QA process, so not available
for general use) and it will be fixed in the next 'official' patch.

Contact Remedy support to get a copy of one of the unreleased builds to see
if this solves your problem.

finally find the issue. I was actually exporting records from my 3.2.1
server to import onto my 4.0.2 server. The 4.0.3 User Tool can not export
Status History fields from a 3.2.1 server. However, it is a SERVER issue
according to Remedy. The server issue is fixed in the 4.0.3 releases, so
Remedy's "workaround" is to upgrade the server to 4.0.3. Figures.

If anyone else runs into this, my workaround was to export my records using
the 3.2.x user tool (which works fine with Status History).
