RE: Spooled File Job Number for CPYSPLF

Sounds like your current job did not create the spooled file
you are trying to copy.
Can you give a bit more detail of what you are trying to do?
Are you trying to copy a spooled file someone else created?

Subject: Spooled File Job Number for CPYSPLF

Hi all,

I am trying to do a CPYSPLF (using CommandCall) to a spooled
file which I have written to AS400 using
SpooledFileOutputStream and appropriate writer. Before
writing the spooled file, I have used RTVJOBA
(ProgramCall through a CL wrapper) to retrieve the user, job
number and job name. However, when I perform
CPYSPLF, it failed because "File <something> not found in
job <xxx/yyy/zzz>". I tried to check out the
spooled file attributes, and it has the job number etc
different from what is retrieved by RTVJOBA.
I have also tried specifying SPLFOWN(*JOB) in CRTPRTF before
writing, but still job number and job name
still remains different though user is the same.

Can I know why is this happening? Is there any way to fix
this thing?

Thanks.
