What to Do if a JSM Based Example Does Not Work
Initial Checks you should always perform:
  • You are using the SET example on an iSeries (iSeries) platform.
  • The JSM is started.
  • The JSM is appropriately licensed to execute the example you are using.
  • The XSL style sheets are installed correctly (see preceding section).
  • The HTTP Property File was updated correctly (see preceding section).
  • The JSM Direct table DC@W29 was updated correctly (see preceding section).
Where to look for clues as to why a JSM SET example ends in error:

If you are running a 5250 green screen user interface
  • Read the messages in the job log.
  • Trace files (see section on obtaining trace files)
If you are running a LANSA For the Web user interface
  • Locate your execution job’s LWEB_JOB and read the messages in its job log.
  • Locate the HTTP Server instance job used by your job and read the messages in its job log.
  • Trace files (see section on obtaining trace files)
If you are running a VL user interface
  • VL examples would typically do a Remote Procedure Call to a function. This would start one of those jobs submitted by the listener (typically a TPnnnnnn job). Find it and read the messages in the job log.
  • Trace files (see section on obtaining trace files)
If the job runs in Batch
  • Read the messages in the job log.
  • Trace files (see section on obtaining trace files)
Obtaining trace files:

Trace files are generated in two IFS directories. You can access both of them from option 7. Work with Java Service Manager in the JSM main menu. For a default installation they are:
  • /jsm/instance/trace
  • /jsm/instance/temp
BEFORE examining or collecting trace files, make sure you clear existing ones. This is easily done this way:
  • On an iSeries 5250 terminal or emulator, use the command GO JSM.
  • Use Option 2. Clear Java Service Manager to clear any existing trace files and change Clear trace directory to *YES.
