CPY from QDLS error

[jane22]

I am trying to copy an .PDF docuement from a QDLS folder to another folder in the IFS root.

I am using: CPY OBJ(&PATHIN) TOOBJ(&PATHOUT)

Sometimes it works. Sometimes it returns object not found. The object has always been there before the copy command and it is there after the copy command and the variables are correct.

I cannot figure out why it work's sometimes and doens't work other times.

Any ideas?

Hi Jane:

You will sometimes get that error if the object being copied is locked by another user. Display your joblog to determine if that is the case.

Also, remember that QDLS is designed for legacy support for the obsolete OfficeVision. As such, it only supports legal DOS file names. A file name such as
RPG_Manual.pdf is not a legal file name. You might be better off putting file in the IFS instead.
