Hi Christian,

Could you provide some more information about what you mean by the place where is managed the link to our cobol? COBOLs are generally run through the PeopleSoft application through the process scheduler or through Remote Call via PeopleCode.

Remote call settings are configured in the application server configuration file (psappsrv.cfg) and by default it wil look for compiled COBOL files in:

Windows: %PS_HOME%\cblbin[A/E/U] (A = non-unicode, E = EBDIC or U = unicode)
Unix: %PS_HOME%\cblbin

These settings can be overridden.

Within the application, all you can really do in relation to COBOLs is to confirm that remote call is working through:

PeopleTools > Utilities > Debug > PeopleTools Test Utilities

For COBOLs run through the process scheduler, you can check the configuration of the COBOL process types related to your process scheduler OS and database through:

PeopleTools > Process Scheduler > Process Types

Hi,
I work on PeopleSoft HRMS, and particularly with cobol.
I have found the directory where cobol are stored opt/peoplesoft/pthr/src/cbl
but what I'm looking for is the place where is managed the link to our cobol.
Is it a configuration file on application server which manage those links or
is it in PeopleSoft 4tier in a specific page like people tools ? I dont' know…
If someone can help me please…
Regards
