Duplicate entries in JDE.ini

I have found duplicate entries in the citrix users jde.ini files.
It is only the following:
[DB SYSTEM SETTINGS]
Decimal Shift =Y (added to the end)

[DB SYSTEM SETTINGS - SECONDARY]
Decimal Shift =N (added to the end)

It may be there only once or listed several times.
These are in the local user profiles on the citrix server. The jde.ini in the WINNT folder is still correct.
I can delete the extra lines but they keep comming back.
We do not use roaming profiles.

Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Have you tried deleting all jde.ini on the citrix box (except the one in WINNT)? When a user logs back in, they will get a new jde.ini copied down from the WINNT folder. You should do this when everyone is off the system. It might be that the current jde.ini files are corrupt.

good luck.
 
Don't worry about it. They are not used at the same time. If your system attempts to use the secondary datasource it means your main database has failed and it has fallen over to a local datasource.
 
Could you attach a couple of examples? Paul is right about the 2 lines being OK as long as one is the regular data source and the other is the secondary, but somehow I'm thinking that your problem is something else. I'm not sure what you mean by deleting lines, but still having them reappear in the JDE.INI ...
 
Thanks to all who replied to my message.

I think I know the answer. Below is an example:

[DB SYSTEM SETTINGS]
Version=43
Default User=JDE
Default Env=JPD7333
Default PathCode=PD7333
Base Datasource=System - B7333
Object Owner=
Server=XXXXXXXX
Database=System - B7333
Load Library=JDBODBC.DLL
Decimal Shift =Y
Julian Dates=Y
Use Owner=N
Secured=Y
Type=I
Library List=XXXXXXX
TDSError=1
ConnectionPooling=0
Default Pwd=_
Decimal Shift =Y
Decimal Shift =Y
Decimal Shift =Y
Decimal Shift =Y
Decimal Shift =Y
Decimal Shift =Y
Decimal Shift =Y

[DB SYSTEM SETTINGS - SECONDARY]
Base Datasource=Access32
Object Owner=
Server=
Database=Access32
Load Library=JDBODBC.DLL
Decimal Shift =N
Julian Dates=N
Use Owner=N
Secured=N
Type=A
Library List=
Library=
Decimal Shift =N
Decimal Shift =N
Decimal Shift =N
Decimal Shift =N
Decimal Shift =N
Decimal Shift =N
Decimal Shift =N

I have noticed, after much study, that the line that is getting deplicated has a space between the t & =. It is also this way in the original jde.ini file that is being sent from the deployment server on install. Weird. I'll make the changes and monitor.
I know it shouldn't hurt anything but I just didn't like it.
