MvsJobSubmitter jobStatus error

[cscs010]

i am running the MvsJobSubmitter sample from alphaworks and get this error even though the job submits and the status appears to display correctly. i cannot figure out what it is complaining about. nothing is written to stdout.
the job submitted was the JZOSJOB shown below.

java.io.IOException: Invalid output from jobStatus child process: IKJ56211I JOB JZOSJOB(JOB19008) EXECUTING
at com.ibm.jzos.sample.MvsJobSubmitter.getJobStatus(MvsJobSubmitter.java:193)

It looks like your TSO id has message ids turn on in the profile, which is causing the MvsJobSubmitter sample program to fail when it is trying to read the message that you see (see the IKJmmmm message id?).

You can either turn off message ids for your TSO id (PROF NOMSGID), or you can fix the sample program.

In the MvsJobSummiter class getJobStatus() method, change the following lines of code:

Code: Select all

		StringTokenizer tok = new StringTokenizer(line);
		if (tok.countTokens() < 3 || !tok.nextToken().equalsIgnoreCase("JOB")) {
			throw new IOException("Invalid output from jobStatus child process: " + line);
		}

To this:

Code: Select all

		StringTokenizer tok = new StringTokenizer(line);
		if (tok.countTokens() < 3 ) {
			throw new IOException("Invalid output from jobStatus child process: " + line);
		}
		String next = tok.nextToken();
		if (next.startsWith("IKJ")) {
			next = tok.nextToken();  // skip over msg id
		}
		if (!next.equalsIgnoreCase("JOB")) {
			throw new IOException("Invalid output from jobStatus child process: " + line);
		}

yes, the problem was that the first token started with IKJ.
A simpler way to get around the probem is just to add the extra nextToken() line so that the word JOB is found in the 2nd token.

thank you for your repsonse.

StringTokenizer tok = new StringTokenizer(line);
String ikj = tok.nextToken();
if (tok.countTokens() < 3 || !tok.nextToken().equalsIgnoreCase("JOB"))
,throw new IOException("Invalid output from jobStatus child process: "
}

It might be simpler, but it would then fail if "PROFILE NOMSGID" was set for the TSO userid.
