Re: No Java in PASE - SOLVED

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Going to post a solution before I forget since I just got off the phone 
with IBM....

We spent quite a bit of time poking around and checking on settings and 
environment with nothing pointing to the problem. But then the IBM tech 
choose to take a look at the ssh job that was running.  So, NETSTAT *CNN 
gave us the list and we took option 8 on the ssh job.  Then Option 5 and 
saw that the job was running under my user profile and running in QCTL.  
The job name was DSP01....

The solution was to shoot ssh and restart it.  Then we made sure it was 
running in QUSRWRK under the QSECOFR profile (which is normal). Bingo!  
I am getting output again.

I have a vague recollection of starting SSH from a console session 
during my last foray in updating to the last TR but...who knows.  The 
IBM tech (awesome support) said he hadn't seen anything like that and 
was just working the list of possibilities when we landed on the solution.

FYI in case someone encounters the issue.  Might be worth a look at the 
SSH job....
