Hello,

starting the COZLNCH-procedure fails immediately with the following messages in SYSOUT:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
CoZLauncher[N]: version: 1.3.0 2009-06-11
CoZLauncher[N]: Copyright (C) Dovetailed Technologies, LLC. 2006.
Properties[E]: No target-user property found
------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is missing?

brgds,

The Co:Z Launcher launches a remote program or shell using an SSH connection and it needs to know the remote userid and hostname.

Normally, these are provided as a parameter:

// EXEC COZPROC,ARGS='myuserid@myhost'

If you only supply the hostname, then you can configure the target-user using a configuration property "target-user".

You are receiving this error because you didn't supply a target userid on either the ARGS parameter or via a property.

Sorry - I was wrong. I thought this PROC should be used a COZ SFTP-Server. I'm about to set up Co:Z-SFTP again (I already did this on another system some time ago and it's working).

by the way - where ist it used?

The COZPROC is use to run the Co:Z Launcher, which has nothing to do with SFTP... it is used to launch a remote program or shell script.

To run the Co:Z SFTP server, you only need to customize your sshd_config file's SFTP subsystem to point to the Co:Z sftp-server.sh script.

For installing/customizing Co:Z SFTP, see: http://dovetail.com/docs/sftp/install.html
