Thanks for the explanation.  My comments are interspersed with yours,
below.

Understood.

I'm still on V5R3.  I ran WRKJOB and found five jobs in the list.  I
selected each and did an option 4, but they were all from compile attempts
of the CL program.  None of the times that I ran the program are present.
There is nothing available under option 10, which is where I was looking
last week when I asked how to find the information after the fact.  I did a
DSPLOG to find out the job name and number, but a WRKJOB with those
indicated that it was not found.

I agree, but it does not appear to be returning one.

I signed in with the other user profile.  Under WRKDOMSVR, I can see the
option "1 - Start Server".  And I know it works, because this is the
profile used to start the server after the CL program failed.

The joblog doesn't appear to be available, but the system log (DSPLOG)
indicates that the user associated with the job is the user profile that I
used to manually start the server.

Here's what I'm getting in the message details in the system log.

Message ID . . . . . . :   CPF9999       Severity . . . . . . . :   40
Message type . . . . . :   Escape
Date sent  . . . . . . :   08/11/06      Time sent  . . . . . . :
06:33:01
Message . . . . :   Function check. LNT0920 unmonitored by RESTRQPPGM at
  statement 3200, instruction X'0039'.
Cause . . . . . :   An escape exception message was sent to a program which
  did not monitor for that message. The full name of the program to which
the
  unmonitored message was sent is RESTRQPPGM  . At the time the message was
  sent the program was stopped at higher level language statement number(s)
.
  If more than one statement number is shown, the program was a bound
program.
  Optimization does not allow a single statement number to be determined.
If
  *N is shown as a value, it means the actual value was not available.
Recovery  . . . :   See the low level messages previously listed to locate
the
  cause of the function check.  Correct any errors, and then try the
request
  again.


> Does the program adopt authority of someone who does NOT have *JOBCTL?

Not intentionally.  Where would I check for this?

> Are you using any profile switching api's that are causing you grief?

Doubt it.  The only thing running on this server is the Domino servers, and
there are literally only three user profiles that anyone can log in with.
The two of us that might log in have no reason to add any API's to the
system.

I wish I could tell one way or the other.  Thanks for all the time taken to
explain.  Any idea what I'm missing as I look around?  Maybe I need to
change a parameter on my job?
