Try it with a double > and see if it works.
ls /weborders/HB*.txt >>/qsys.lib/hbmofa.lib/webordifs.file/webordifs.mbr
With a single >, the shell must delete the member first and then recreate it in the file and then write to it. Very possible that your user profile doesn't have authority to delete the member, but does have authority to add a new member or append to it.
You might also try deleting the member first (RMVM) and then running the command.
Another possiblity is to make the file MAXMBRS(*NOMAX), but then you'd have to come up with a naming scheme for the members.

Subject: Problem with QSH command that is sending me UP the wall
Hi everyone
I have a CL program that executes the command
QSH CMD(&LSCOMMAND)
Where &LSCOMMAND is built using different variables.
Using STRDBG on the CL program I have determined the &LSCOMMAND contains the following value
ls /weborders/HB*.txt >/qsys.lib/hbmofa.lib/webordifs.file/webordifs.mbr
Which means list all files beginning with HB, ending in .txt in the ifs directory weborders into the file (HBMOFA)WEBORDIFS
This results in the response QSH0005 with reason code 2, which according to my search means Folder does not exist or do not have authority to folder
Now here comes the kickers
This WAS working fine ALL morning, yesterday, the last 2 weeks.
I have double-checked and the weborders ifs directory DEFINITELY contains such files.
Now kicker number 2.
When I run the EXACT same command using QSH on the command line (prompting QSH and pasting the above command) it works. Using my own profile, it works. Using the profile my job is running under - it works.
Anyone any ideas, because like the subject line says, this is sending me UP the wall
As always, any and all responses gratefully accepted
