Re: Again DLFM Server start up problem

[afvaiv <afvaiv@xxxxxxxxxx>]

jt, Paul and Simon,
thanks for your thoughts about DLFM. Tomorrow I'll do some more testing...
As Simon mentioned, when I do STRTCPSVR *DLFM, it opens a QSHELL window (Yes,
Simon, I agree with you, why the h... did he do it in Unix-flavor environment ?
...) and it is here where I get the messages I mentioned. There is no way to get
any second level help on them. A final message asks you to press any key to
close the window... as soon as you press any key you're out!), nothing in the
joblog (the interactive session) nor of any of the other jobs, nor for DSPLOG.
And the problem is I cannot "hold" the Jobq as suggested because they seem to be
started NOT thru a jobq, but as new processes... (threads ?).

Simon, you mentioned :

"DLFM starts successfully here. When you start DLFM it cranks up at least 8 BCI
jobs ......On my system (OS/400 VRM440 with latest Cume) there are only seven
QZDLM jobs.  I am missing the QZDFMCHD job so I don't think the fact it is
missing is your problem."

You have 8 or 7 ? You are missing the same one as I do and still your server is
up and running?

I think yes, it's worth trying to begin it all over from scratch, step by step
trying to STRTCPSVR everytime I take any additional step forward...

I'll keep you informed. Thanks again!
