My requirement is to download a file from HOST. I tried using the "FILEXFER" Service. But when I execute the code, it is abending. Please have a look at code and abend message, and suggest me the way. Please tell me is there any other way to achieve my requirement.
CODE:
| Code: |
/*REXX*/
VAR1 = 'NBDKYGS.ER0T.TEST.FILE'
VAR2 = 'D:\download\text1.txt'
ADDRESS ISPEXEC "VPUT (VAR1,VAR2)"
/*ADDRESS ISPEXEC "FILEXFER HOST(VAR1) WS(VAR2) TO(WS) TEXT"*/
CALL ISPLINK 'FILEXFER' VAR1 VAR2 'WS' TEXT
SAY 'RETURN CODE:' RC
|
ERROR:
| Code: |
Command ===>
******************************************************************************
* ISPS101 *
* *

When you read the ISPF Services manual, it mentions 'command invocation' and 'Call invocation'. From rexx, you should use the 'command invocation'.
The call invocation is a call from an assembler program. The parameter list used by a rexx call is different than a z/OS call. It might work if you use a TSO call:
| Code: |
| Address TSO "CALL '*(ISPLINK)' 'your parms'" |
Though the recommendation is still through ISPEXEC. |

Part of your problem is that you've left out some steps. Before you can call the FILEXFER service, you need to make a connection to the workstation agent. The flow goes something like this:
| Code: |
/* REXX */
ADDRESS ISPEXEC
IP = "IP ADDRESS OF YOUR WORKSTATION i.e. XX.XX.XX.XX"
HOSTFILE = "'NBDKYGS.ER0T.TEST.FILE'"
WSFILE = "D:\download\text1.txt"
"VPUT (IP HOSTFILE WSFILE)"
"WSCON IP(IP) NOGUIDSP PANEL(ONERROR)"
"FILEXFER HOST(HOSTFILE) WS(WSFILE) TO(WS) TEXT"
SAY "FILEXFER:"RC
"WSDISCON"
EXIT 0

Many errors will cause the 'dialog error box' to be displayed. But the text will be different. I doubt that the error messages were the same. When you get a dialog error, pay special attention to the text displayed within it. The first line is a message number that you can look up. |

| The TCP/IP address is the address of the workstation where the Workstation Agent (the WSA.EXE program) is running. |
