RE: Rather urgent CPYTOSTMF problem

Just tried that and this is what we get now:

Object not found.  Object is /home/AGCSYSBH/agftpout/F001407415.TMP.
Object not copied.  Object is                                       
  /QSYS.lib/AGCFTPOUT.lib/F001407415.file/SND.mbr.

You need to put a forward slash first in your &PATH variable, 
otherwise it looks in what is the user's current directory. You can 
look at the user profile to see what that should be - look at the 
help for explanation of how it works - too long to explain here.

Problem here is that there is a directory with his name under /home - 
that is assumed to be the starting point for relative path names 
(those without a leading slash).

Hello Chaps and Chapesses

We have an urgent problem here, we have to send messages out to 
clients to inform them when when cargo arrives, this has been 
working up until recently. The messages actually stopped around the 
same time we installed WDSC. (I cannot believe that this was the 
cause, but maybe some of you know better)

Anyway the problem we are getting is when we try to do the 
CPYTOSTMF, the path is set up in the program as follows:


       CHGVAR     VAR(&PATH) VALUE('QSYS.lib/' *TCAT &LIB +
                    *TCAT '.lib/' *TCAT &OBJ *TCAT '.file/' +
                    *TCAT 'SND.mbr')

       CPYTOSTMF  FROMMBR(&PATH) TOSTMF(&FILENAME) +
                    STMFOPT(*REPLACE) STMFCODPAG(*PCASCII) +
                    ENDLINFMT(*FIXED)

 the program falls over with this:

     Object not a QSYS.LIB object.  Object is
       /home/AGCSYSBH/QSYS.lib/AGCFTPOUT.lib/F001407322.file/SND.mbr.
     Object not copied.  Object is
       QSYS.lib/AGCFTPOUT.lib/F001407322.file/SND.mbr.

We cannot work out where the /home/AGCSYSBH comes from (AGCSYSBH is 
the user profile that submits the job, which runs all day waiting for message).

Is the message telling us that the file is in the /home etc. 
directory or that the path is wrong? The messages are deleted so we 
are not sure where they were if they got there at all.

Another problem is that 3rd party software sets up the message to be 
sent, but this has not changed for ages.

TIA
