Re: IFS API problem

[Jim Langston <jimlangston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Does the User who is running as the HTTP service have authority to the
library and physical file?  This would probably be QTMHHTP1 or QTMHHTTP.

I am pretty sure this is the type of error you would get if that user
profile didn't have the authority to the library or file.

One way me be to test the bejeebies out of this program and then 
give it adopted authority.

Jim Langston

Me transmitte sursum, Caledoni!
