    We are upgrading from WTX 8413 to ITX9003 and moving from AIX to Linux.    After deploying a system to Linux, when I attempted to start the launcher, I received an error message & can't seem to find documentation on it anywhere.  Does anyone know what a "result 127" means?  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    List of deployment directories:

    /edi/837/systems

    Adding System 837_5010.msl; to list of systems.

    Automatic Initial Start option is on.

    Recieved the request Start System for system 837_5010.msl;.

    Hi,

    we got a 139 and have opened a pmr with IBM.

    look into install dir /tmp for abort and the .launcher xxxx dir for crash  may be of help. Also if you still have the 8.4 doc you that still as a reference

    UNIX signal-generated codes in the Launcher log file

    Launcher result codes that are higher than 128 occur when the operating system sends a UNIX signal to the Launcher. The value of the Launcher result code is the UNIX signal value plus 128.

    To determine the UNIX signal value, subtract 128 from the Launcher result code. For example, Launcher result code 139 corresponds to the UNIX signal value 11 (139 - 128 = 11). UNIX signal value 11 represents the POSIX SIGSEGV signal.

    See your operating system documentation for the list UNIX signals and signal values.

    Hope this helps

    Tom W

    Thanks Paul.  We do have that log turned on in the dtx.ini file.  There isn't any details in the log other than the launcher stopped with a result 127.

    We are currently checking all paths to make sure that those exist & are available to the id being used.

    In the log, you can see a line that starts with:

    Command line for starting the system System2.msl; is ....

    Everything after this bit, but before the final full stop (.) can be used to start the Launcher manually (outside of the Java Event Server wrapper process).

    Example:

    Command line for starting the system System2.msl; is /nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/bin/launcher /nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/systems/System2.msl  -s47100,47101,47102  -d='/nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/logs/CompoundSystem02-23-18-12-27-46-PM.log' -L='/nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/logs/CompoundSystem02-23-18-12-27-46-PM.txt' -N='/nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/config/dtx.ini'.

    Command line would be:

    /nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/bin/launcher /nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/systems/System2.msl  -s47100,47101,47102  -d='/nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/logs/CompoundSystem02-23-18-12-27-46-PM.log' -L='/nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/logs/CompoundSystem02-23-18-12-27-46-PM.txt' -N='/nfshome/pbrett/lnx64/wtx8412/config/dtx.ini'

    Thank you
