Re: (see thread on RPG list) Re: Test program calls puts(), creates spool file here, but not on customer box

Something more agreeable would be to perform [a variation of] the following override request before the test:

OVRPRTF FILE(*PRTF) DFRWRT(*YES) SPOOL(*YES) OUTQ(QGPL/QPRINT2)
MAXRCDS(*NOMAX) SCHEDULE(*JOBEND) HOLD(*YES) SAVE(*YES)
USRDTA(HELDTHIS) SPLFOWN(*JOB) SPLFNAME(*FILE)
USRDFNOPT(*NONE) USRDFNDTA(*NONE) USRDFNOBJ(*NONE)
WAITFILE(*CLS) OVRSCOPE(*JOB)

After the test... WRKJOB JOB() OPTION(*SPLF)

A DSPFD of both QPRINT and QSYSPRT shows SPOOL(*YES).

And with the above test, on the "problem" box, I still see no spool file at all, not even in a FIN state, from the "host print" key, but I *do* see it, with the USRDTA from the above override, on another box, and if I do an Option 6 in PDM on the "problem" box, I *do* get a spool file *with* the above override.

I also have TRCJOB output (some 800-odd records; what am I looking for?) from the scenario:
TRCJOB *ON
<host print key>
TRCJOB *OFF *OUTFILE
