Hi Jim,

If you ever start using service programs you may discover that you do indeed need the job log when a compile fails. If you forget to tell the compiler the name of a binding directory, or misspell a procedure name that's in a service program, the source listing will say everything's fine here -- check the joblog for errors. In the job log you will see errors from the binding step when it is unable to resolve a procedure name. These errors do NOT show up in source listing.

Peter,

Our jobd for the compile is set to log 4 0 *nolist, if the compile is
good then no job log. But if it fails we get the job log and we always
delete it, no need to read the compile job log, since the compile source
listing is what we look at to see why it failed. So we want to not have
to delete the job log on a failure.

Hi Jim,

I assume you're submitting your compilations to batch, right? Change
the association job description to have a logging level of LOG(4 0
*NOLIST). If the compile is successful, there will be no job log; if it
fails, you may want the job log, especially if it has a problem
resolving procedure names.

The system creates a job log along with the compile spool file. Is there a way to stop the compile from producing the job log and only produce the source compile spool file?

TIA
