    We installed WTX8.3.0.4 with launcher in linux environment.we developed map using IFD and deployed .msl file in to the systsems folder.The functionality is used to read the message from the remote Q .we deployed but we are not seeing any logs there.

    Is there any step or document available for deploying map in linux environment.How to enable the trace.

    ;launcherlog=ewsc

    to make it:

    launcherlog=ewsc

    ....and then re-start the Launcher.

    Post all new logs found in the logs folder to this forum for review.

    As Paul Brett responded, the trace is enable in the ".ini" file.

    I am wondering though; did you upgrade from a previous version of WTX or did you just change your deployment server to Linux from another operation system?

    I've worked with Unix, Linux and Window's based deployment servers and the process is pretty much the same on each. You develop the map in the Map designer, you add it to a system in the IFD, you deploy the system, then add it to launcher via Launcher Admin. You can then monitor the processes/systems via the Management Console. Do you see the system up and running in Management Console?

    qunasam,

    (and, please, anyone who knows, correct me if I am wrong)...The error message in that log, such as the 127, are operation system specific. They are very difficult to identify.

    If you get one these errors, you should do a search in this formum for that string. If you do it now for "127", you will see responses that may help. It's been too long since I've gotten that error, and I have, but I can't recall the reason or solution.

    If all else fails and you still don't know what the problem is, IBM support may be the only people who can tell you what is wrong.

    The one thread that discuss's this error if you do the search is that something in regards to the system is not found and suggests to check all the paths. Whether they mean the paths in regards to the system set up in launderadmin, or, all that paths such as the input and output cards for each, I am not sure, but you'd probably want to check all that anyway.

    The Comopund logs is 0 bytes.I checked the launcheradmin.sh all the path setup correctly using envsetup command.
    DTX_HOME_DIR (IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender Home Directory):
    /opt/ibm/wsdtx/bin
    DTX_TMP_DIR (IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender Temp Directory):
    /opt/ibm/wsdtx/bin
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
    /opt/ibm/wsdtx/bin
    and in management log it is showing

    Launcher:LOG
    CompoundSystem System Not Responding

    I dont know how to proceed.

    The only suggestion I can make is to either save that system under a different name and remove all of the maps except one, or, create a new system with only one simple map, then deploy that and try to start it up.

    Basically I am saying to make it as simple as possible with the least amount of room for error. Maybe change the input and output to a file with no path, so it assumes the map directory. Once the system and one map in the system is down to the bare minimum, try to deploy it then and see what happens. This may help segregate whether the problem is with the systems itself, or the launcher set up.

    As with any error for any computer system, it is difficult to debug unless you’re in front of the machine itself.

    Good luck.

    Now that I think about it, how about your ID, what kind of access does it have? Maybe it can't see some directory because you don't have access.

    When I worked in a shop with Linux as the deployment server, we used hummingbird to access the box. When doing stuff under launcher, we didn't log in with our personal usernames, we had to use the "WTX" user name. Make sure that username has the access it needs. I would put 777 for everything so we didn't hit any issues.
