Here is my JCL:
Code:
//CJPDPTRN JOB (COPY),MSGCLASS=H,CLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID,REGION=0M 
//COPYSTEP EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01                                       
//INHFS  DD PATH='/u/cjpdp/wsdl/ResetQue.wsdl'                     
//OUTHFS DD PATH='/usr/lpp/cicsts/cicsts42/TRNG/wsdl/ResetQue.wsdl'
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*                                             
//SYSTSIN  DD *                                                   
OCOPY INDD(INHFS) OUTDD(OUTHFS)                                   
/*     


I am getting a JCL ERROR and this message:
Code:
IEFA107I CJPDPTRN COPYSTEP OUTHFS - DATA SET ...PATH=.SPECIFIED... NOT FOUND 

I verified the path does exist. Here is the screen:

Code:
  Menu  Utilities  View  Options  Help                                         
                                                                               
                           z/OS UNIX Directory List            Row 1 to 5 of 5
Command ===>                                                  Scroll ===> CSR 
                                                                               
Pathname . : /usr/lpp/cicsts/cicsts42/TRNG/wsdl                               
EUID . . . : 1003                                                             


I have tried about 8 times with different files and always get the same error.

Mod edit: We find it much esier to read code and data if you use the code tags. I have done it for you this time.

IIRC, the default if you don't specify PATHOPTS is for read-only. Try this:
Code:
//CJPDPTRN JOB (COPY),MSGCLASS=H,CLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID,REGION=0M
//COPYSTEP EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
//INHFS DD PATH='/u/cjpdp/wsdl/ResetQue.wsdl'
//OUTHFS DD PATH='/usr/lpp/cicsts/cicsts42/TRNG/wsdl/ResetQue.wsdl',
//     PATHOPTS=(OWRONLY)
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD *
 OCOPY INDD(INHFS) OUTDD(OUTHFS)

Thank you, Robert.

That didn't work... same error. But, you seem to know a lot more about it than I do. I tried something a little different... I manually created the output file, then ran my JCL and it copies over the file I manually created just fine. Where it doesn't work is when I am trying to copy a new file to an existing directory.

I need to get this to work in batch for part of a change management process. Otherwise, I would just say "to hell with it" and do it manually.

Update:

Thanks again, Robert.

I did a little more searching on OWRONLY and found if I added OCREAT to OWRONLY it gets past the JCL error:

PATHOPTS=(OWRONLY,OCREAT)

Now I get "permission denied", but at least that's a message I understand.

This is what I use when copying within unix.

Code:
//HFS2HFS JOB (XX,XX,123,00),'ME',MSGCLASS=X,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),
// CLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//**********************************************
//* COPY HFS 2 HFS
//**********************************************
//STEP003  EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
//SYSTSPRT  DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT  DD SYSOUT=*
//STDERR    DD SYSOUT=*
//STDOUT    DD SYSOUT=*
//HFSIN    DD PATH='/u/me/normalFTP.txt',
//            PATHOPTS=(ORDONLY)        <<< READ ONLY
//HFSOUT   DD PATH='/u/me/java/normalFTP.txt',
//            PATHOPTS=(OCREAT,ORDWR,OTRUNC),
//            PATHMODE=(SIRUSR,SIRGRP,SIROTH,SIWUSR,SIWGRP,SIWOTH)
//SYSTSIN   DD *
 OCOPY INDD(HFSIN) OUTDD(HFSOUT)

Not sure if this would help but I found billlalonde.tripod.com/oejcl.htm which has PATHOPTS=(ORDWR,OTRUNC,OCREAT) and which it says "we intend to read/write it, we will create it if it doesn't exist and we will overwrite it if it does".

If your file is new, it is not found and you don't have the option to create it in your current PATHOPTS ? (is what I'm thinking).

Garry.

Glad to hear you got past the error. The "permission denied" message can be caused by any directory in the path -- so at least one directory in /usr/lpp/cicsts/cicsts42/TRNG/wsdl/ has permissions set to deny you access. You may need to work with your site support group to get you access, or change the directory permissions.

Thanks guys, for lots of good info.

I'm always doing something that causes permission or authorization errors, so I'm not concerned. The systems programmer is over-zealous about security. The DBA doesn't even have authority to move bind images into the DBRM lib. This all makes setting up a change management system a real challenge.
