8.10 with ROBOT

Hello all,

We're upgrading from XE to 8.10 and use ROBOT on the AS/400 to execute scheduled job streams.

We're having problems getting jobs to execute correctly in the 8.10 environment. Some RUNUBE executions return a SIGABRT (from AS/400 joblog) and don't produce any output. This does not happen consistantly. These UBEs run fine when submitted or called from a command line.

Just wondering if anyone has seen similar issues and had any luck. We tried RCLACTGRP(*ELIGIBLE) after each RUNUBE call but didn't get success.

thanks

XE -SP23_K1
8.10 -8.95.H1

Yeah... good old SIGABRT... this is such a generic error. It can mean so many things but the common reasons we've seen this error is because of: 1) the OneWorld password you have in the RUNUBE command is disabled 2) OneWorld services are not up and running when this Robot job runs or 3) the version you are trying to run does not exist on the AS/400 and you have to submit the specs first.

We use Robot for version 8.10 and it's working for us without any problems. There were some parameter changes on the RUNUBE line so if you haven't already, prompt the command to see them and all the new keywords.

Contact me via e-mail if you want to.
Thanks and Good Luck!

Thanks for the response. The only way we could get this to work was to clear out the SQL packages. Seemed to do the trick and we're running normally now.
