V7.2

I have a CL looping through a list of wildcards and building a zip file using ajar. The build first creates an empty shell zip and then loops through the wildcards adding to the zip.

In batch, I'm regularly seeing this error:
ajar: Could not rename temp file `<my zipfile>.zip_<some random identifier>' to `<my zipfile>.zip
(Warning) Could not remove temp file `<my zipfile>.zip_<some random identifier>'.

Running the same process interactively works fine. I came across a note that said to be sure the environment variable QIBM_MULTI_THREADED was set to Y and I've added that to my Robot job stream - it was not in my interactive job though (WrkEnvVar).

Batch job is running from Robot and the user profile is on the AUTL for the ifs folders (as am I).

Any thoughts? Thanks!
