subject: FTP problem CPD0095

I have a CL that is a copy of another program that I use to FTP data
from our system to one of our customers. The program is to put two
files from our system into the directory at the customer's FTP site.
The second put is successful. The first put ends up with zero bytes
transferred even though the file on the 520 is not empty. When I step
through the program, the override to input and override to output does
not produce any errors. After the FTP step, the job log shows the
following two statements:

Numeric value for parameter SEQONLY is not valid.

Error found on OVRDBF command.

When I look at the first error, the detail message is: CPD0095
Numeric value for parameter SEQONLY is not valid.

It appears that the message is generated inside the FTP call itself.
Google on CPD0095 didn't help me. Can anyone give me a clue as to what
is happening? If I leave the overrides to input and output in place,
run the program but do not call the FTP process, there is no error. I
cannot tell from the messages what override is being talked about.



Thanks for any input, Dick

The numeric part for SEQONLY parameter in OVRDBF must be in the range 1

to

32767 - are you outside of that range?

Left over override hanging around perhaps?

If you sign off, sign back on and try a simple OVRDBF and FTP do you

get

the same error?

wait. A simple DSPJOB OPTION(*FILOVR) should show you this.

When I used WRKACTJOB and watched the open files, I noticed that the
program where the data is input into the file is different from the
other FTP programs in that it is a ILE program (two modules). As a
result the files are opened in QILE activation group. So the file
"appears to be empty" at the FTP point and so the numeric part for
SEQONLY is 0. Now I need to get the called programs to recognize the
activation group and I should be good to go. I plan on using activation
group *CALLER for the called programs and see what happens. I had
recompiled all the CL programs to run in QILE, but that didn't help.

Thanks, Dick
