Rebuild does not create a program, it reconstructs the file at
execution time.
Is FDweh a MF indexed file?
Did you spell its name right, including extension? Is it FDweh.dat?
Do you have an environment variable named FDweh? You should not.
Is FDweh.idx present in the same directory? If not, you should use -i
You might have to specify the input file's organization with the -s
parameter, the record length with -r and the keys with -k. See
examples in the File Handling manual.
The old default indexed file format on Unix was C-ISAM. If it looks
normal when edited with vi, that's what you have. Try this to 'verify'
the file:
rebuild FDweh -f -i -s:c-isam
