Re: Strange problem

  We could distinguish between two types of files here: 

  - The files that standard output and standard error are redirected to 

  - The log files to which we write directly (via Java I/O) from the 
application 

     When we specify -Dfile.encoding=1253 on the java command then neither a 
log file gets created nor do the stdout and stderr get written to their 
respective files. 
  When we do not pass a -Dfile.encoding flag to the java command at all, or 
when we use -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859_7, both types of files get written to. 
     The various CCSIDs are as follows, just in case this helps: 
  - CCSID of user running the job is 875 
- CCSID of log file is 813 
- CCSID of stdout/stderr redirection files is 875 
     The only problem right now, if I omit the file.encoding property, is 
that I cannot view the contents of the stdout/stderr redirection files 
via a remote PC (by way of map network drive); I see unintelligible 
gibberish. I can view the contents of those files properly by way of 
wrklnk though... 
   
  Thanks!
