#3 "File is not open for modifications"

[sebastian_busch]

When I am in 'cp', there is the problem that from time
to time I come across
Modify parameters (<list>,-,a,p,f) [-] ? 2

w1 (val,f,d,z,i,s,n,u,l) [none] a
error passed through OlfPutXYD / X

MBO/ File 6 is not open for modifications

IDA (6)

I cannot reconstruct when this happens. However, it
happens quite often, especially after fitting from 'cp'.

You have chosen parameter 2 for modification.
The string 'a' is not an allowed choice in the
next line.
Only a number, or the other single
letter values shown in the bracket
following w1 are an allowed choice.

'a' does also not work in the modify parameters
line. The program dumps. This has to be
looked up.

In my version of frida (I am actually not sure which this
is), the bracket does not contain 'a' (as you say), but
typing '??' gives a list of possible answers, including
a reset p:=|p|
which works fine most of the time.

Meanwhile, I think that fitting inside 'cp' (with the 'f'
command) (eventually several times) is necessary and enough
to cause 'a' quit working.
