Hi Jim

Apache has executed the SETASPGRP command (apologies for misspelling the command as CHGASPGRP) - or maybe something like it - since IASP support came out in V5R2 - I saw this behavior when I put the RJS WebDocs product library into an IASP. Now this was for CGI stuff, so I can't speak to other areas.

What it took was a couple directives that simply used the IFS path to the library through the IASP directory, as here -

<Directory /IASP01/QSYS.LIB/RJSIMAGE.LIB/>

There was also a <ScriptAliasMatch> for the CGI program, which also required the /IASP01 (or whatever directory was used for the IASP) in the path name of the program.

That's all it took - and in the job log for the CGI connection, there was a message that said the ASP group was changed - no user programming needed at all.

How/where is Apache going to be smart enough to issue a CHGASPGRP command?
I think what was happening is the relational database entry for the iASP
database was used to do the SQL connect to the database. I could be wrong
but I'll bet a round of drinks at COMMON Fall conference that Apache (V7R1)
cannot do a CHGASPGRP "automatically", without some customer code to do it
with. I know the Zend Server won't do it automatically (unless Zend put
that into version 7 but I highly doubt it's there).

BTW: I would not want Apache to do a CHGASPGRP without some sort of
directive telling it to.....

V7R2 is a different discussion but I think this is all V7R1.

Someone at Zend would have to confirm this, but it might not be necessary to
change any JOBDs - it is not required when using an Apache instance by
itself. The httpd.conf file can contain a directory directive that merely
names the directory or library that is in the IASP, and the Apache server
automatically does a CHGASPGRP.

Whether this happens with Zend, I don't know. It might be worth it, though,
to add a container section in your httpd.conf file that specifies the IASP
directory in question something like /IASP02/yourfolder.

I did this when working at RJS Software, with a regular Apache instance, to
demonstrate that one of their products works in IASPs. It was magical
- not well-documented, as I recall, although one COULD ferret out the
details by combining info from a couple places.

i'm scared to death to change the apache jobd. i might just put

however, i'm not afraid of routing programs. how did you do something
that only affects the apache server for zend?

The job description for the Zend apache instance defaults to :
QHTTPSVR/QZHBHTTP.
The job description for the Zend Server defaults to: ZENDSVR/ZSVR_JOBD.

The Zend job description is not a big deal to change, but, be really
careful with the IBM default QZHBHTTP. That change could break
things.

At V7R2 you can determine the entire work management environment from
the httpd.conf file. So now you can customize the job description,
subsystem,
memory pool used etc. by individual Apache instance. In V7R1, I've had
to
resort to using a routing program for QHTTPSVR subsystem to control that.
I don't think there is any plan to PTF the work management changes to
V7R1 but it would be cool if it happened.

I agree, What is the JOBD used by Zend and by the Apache server?

It likely is not. The user that runs the web server needs the iASP in
its job.

Check out the job description used by Zend Server and the Apache instance.
WARNING: If the iASP is not up and running by the time you start the
web server after this change, the web server will die, and not tell you
why.
Took me 2 days of head scratching to figure that one out.

An update - the problem is related to the fact that the library that I am
trying to access is in an IASP. The user profile with which I am
connecting has a JOBD that specifies that IASP, but is this the JOBD
under which the job is actually running?

Larry, here's a sample that might get you started. I am providing this
one because it's complete, has error checking on the connect, and has
the "require_once" statement that you are probably missing now. Remove
the references to procedures/functions/return variables if they don't
apply to your program.
