One week ago I posted the following problem: Sorry for this lengthy message, but I'm DEAD STOP ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, I've started to use DLFM to deal with links to picture fields, etc for a new app. I'm following steps as detailed in redbook SG24-5409-00 After setting up my RDB, INZDLFM, add Prefixes, add Host DB, etc, I come to "Start TCP Server *DLFM". It runs for some time, and at the end I get following messages... TCP1A0F : DLFM Server starting Wait for DLFM Server jobs to Start Unable to Start DFLM Server but then I go to QSYSWRK Subsystem: the redbook mentions there should be (p.164) 8 jobs running (with names starting with "QZDFM...") but I only get 7 up and running. The missing one is "QZDFMCHD"... Any one knows why this job did not start as the rest did? 7 out of 8 is the reason for message "Unable to start DFLM Server" ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Got two answers: One of them suggested to look at QZDFMCHD joblog (it's the missing job!); try to change the joblog, or even look DSPLOG or the other 7 jobs joblogs... The other one, suggested 3 APARs... Well, for the first one, there is no joblog. All other 7 jobs use JOBD(QDFTJOBD) so I changed it to LOG(4 00 *SECLVL) but still no joblog for the missing one... I looked in DSPLOG, and I see 7 jobs starting and then ending, which (I guess) just start the 7 ones that keep alive. But not 8 of them. Still, got joblogs for all of them, and no clues ! More strange yet, if I ENDTCPSVR *DLFM, it takes a while... says "Server terminated"... but the 7 jobs are still up ! I can do ENDTCPSVR once or several more times... and no protest, it takes some time and end saying "Server terminated"... !!! but 7 jobs still up ! I guess it should either really terminate the 7 jobs, so I could not say ENDTCPSVR again and again... or else say, I cannot terminate it for some reason, or not? If I don't kill myself the 7 jobs and try to STRTCPSVR *DLFM again, I get "Server started" , but it is NOT true, since I can see it is stopped thru Ops.N... Even trying to start it thru Ops.N. won't start it. Right clicking on it I just get same 7 server jobs as doing it manually, no matter how many times I try it. Only if I "do" kill the 7 jobs myself, and then try the STRTCPSVR again, then I DO get again the messages TCP1A0F : DLFM Server starting Wait for DLFM Server jobs to Start Unable to Start DFLM Server but still server appears as stopped under Ops.N. Anyway, if I try to insert a record in the table (where it should be) with SQL, I get error SQL0357 saying file server for datalinks is not available... Well, now I'm in a dead-end. Don't know how to go in any direction... ------------------------- Antonio Fernandez-Vicenti afvaiv@wanadoo.es
