Re: How do I find the job associated with a JWALK error

Darryl,

I think the OP indicated he had the user press 'D' for a dump...

The problem is that you responded with a C to cancel the job, so there
will not be a dump.

To get a dump, you would have had to respond with a D (dump).

The logging level is probably set to not produce job logs so that's why
you cannot find it.

First of all, how did you know that this particular user was part of the
qualified job name? Normally it is on regular 5250 based jobs. However
(and it's been awhile since I looked at Seagull's JWalk) is it the same
thing for a screen scraper like JWalk? Perhaps it runs in a QHTTPSVR job
and uses profile handles or some such thing? If the person is still in
that job can they do DSPJOB? Or SysReq 3, then option 4?

Will WRKOBJLCK on that user profile show you the job?

Good morning (or afternoon) everybody,

I have searched the midrange-l archives and google for this but nothing

is

specific enough. I can't believe nobody came across this before.

Okay, our third party software uses JWALK for the GUI to the users.

One of our users got an error. Char representation of a numberic value is
in error (C G D F). I had the user enter a "D", cancel out, and continue
with other work she was doing.

But I could not find the dump! WRKSPLF [user-id] got me no spool files. I
thought I would see something because the user id was part of the
"qualified job name".

How can I find the job associated with that message? And/or at least that
dump?

My plan now is to have her hold while I dig into the log for the

qualified

job there, and go from there.

Thanks all
Alan

I did not want to pollute the thread "If you have SSDs, please read".

Some years ago, PTFs stopped being applied here. Much like "if it ain't
broke". We had an application that did screen scraping. Long gone. A
Client Access PTF broke the application. A somewhat critical

application,

as it turned out. The SA may or may not have contacted the vendor of the
pc software. But, what was done was the PTF was backed out.

After that, no CUMEs were installed. Only PTFs identified by service
advisor.

Various people in command hierarchy, I have no idea how high up, set that
policy.

Potentially very dumb policy. That was why I was a little hesitant to
install PTFs suggested by Scott K that corrected errors with ssh. I am
glad I did, as the enhanced error handling made a number of transfers
performed subsequently a LOT nicer.

Clueless management too far removed from the system making policy
decisions.
