Re: HSSFR4 ss_open not working when ran in batch

Hi Jason,

Now is when we ask if the path and file name are parameters, how the batch job was submitted, how the fields are defined, etc.

When you submit a job to batch with a simple "CALL MyPgm PARMS(x y z)", if x y and z are character fields, they are passed as char(32).  Numeric fields are passed as packed decimal 15.5.  The command processor has to make some assumptions because you don't have any way to define those parameters on a simple call.

That's why it's recommended that you create a command with the parameters defined, then submit a call where  the command is "MyCmd p1(x) p2(y) p3(z)"

Silly me (should have known to provide second level) and this is really weird. The folder path and file name are the same interactively and via batch. However, in batch, it is cut off (see below). The variable that contains the path and file name are not cut off.

Hi Jason,

The RNX0301 error should have a lot more detail than you've provided. Can you provide the 2nd level text that you receive in the job log? The entire message will all data would be helpful.   Within this detail should be information about the Java exception that's occurring.   As it stands, all we know is that some sort of exception is occurring, we don't know what it is.

I have a program that reads and processes an xlsx spreadsheet on a V7R2 system. Works great interactively but gets an exception when ran in batch. All there is in the job log after starting the JVM is the below escape message.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
