Re: CPC1116 Cannot signon even from console - please help

Zvi,

Do you still have your problem? I sure hope that is not a production
machine!

I do not have an IBM i handy at the moment, so all of this is from
memory. You have been warned.

If the problem is merely a missing initial program, then I would have
expected a user with command line authority to be able to sign on by
entering program name 0 at the signon prompt. If it is otherwise, then
I have an opportunity to learn something. Similarly, program QCMD, as
bdietz400 suggested, "should" take such a user directly to the command
entry screen rather than a menu.

Jerry Adams suggests that library QGPL may be missing. I think--well, I
hope--that would have provoked a different error message at the signon
screen. You could check that by naming a known nonexistent library at
the signon screen.

If your problem persists, you can try other interfaces to the system.
Both ftp and System i Access allow command entry, and I think the
concept of an initial program is foreign to them.

Please let us know how you are getting on. If you would like a
telephone call, please let me know off-list.

Cheers,
Terry.

After deleting some files I IPLed the S150 R4V5 machine.
Now I have no TCP/IP, and I can not login from console.
The message when I try to login is:
"CPC1116 Program xxxx in library QGPL not found."

My question is:
1. Can I IPL manually to enter CL command ?
(then I can start TCP/IP or create the missing program)
2. Can I IPL manually to restore the QGPL/xxxx program from
tape to solve this problem?
3. Is there another way to solve this problem?

Zvi
