Fatal error in OPF error NO FILE.CONTROL in COB was created by woolala
Hi all.

Few days ago, I made a small test in BATCH 'BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP'.
Added a DATA 'HOWAREYOU' between 11.2.3 and 11.2.5

BATCH PROCESS..... BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP
1 BATCH.STAGE....... D003 START OF DAY
3 PROCESS.STATUS.... 0 READY
4 BATCH.ENVIRONMENT. F FOREGROUND
6. 1 JOB.NAME....... EOD.BLD.STMT.VAL.ENT
8. 1 FREQUENCY...... A AD-HOC
12. 1 JOB.STATUS..... 0 READY
6. 2 JOB.NAME....... EB.CLEAR.FILES
8. 2 FREQUENCY...... D DAILY
11. 2. 1 DATA........ BOS.ACCT.OPEN.TODAY
11. 2. 2 DATA........ RE.SPEC.ENT.LWORK.DAY
11. 2. 3 DATA........ POSITION.LWORK.DAY
11. 2. 4 DATA........ HOWAREYOU
11. 2. 5 DATA........ BOS.AC.PREPARED.CLOSE
11. 2. 6 DATA........ M.BOS.RPT.407.DATA
12. 2 JOB.STATUS..... 0 READY
13. 2 LAST.RUN.DATE.. 30 MAR 2017

After tested, I removed 'HOWAREYOU' from 11.2.4 and authorised.
But when I running COB yesterday, an error message appears.

Fatal error in OPF error NO FILE.CONTROL RECORD - F.HOWAREYOU , MNEMONIC = NO

And F.EB.EOD.ERROR shows :

@ID............. CN0010001.20170330
ROUTINE......... OPF
DATE.RESOLVED...
EB.EOD.ERROR.ID. CN0010001.20170330
TIME.DATE....... 17:07:13 05 JUN 2017
DESCRIPTION..... NO FILE.CONTROL RECORD - F.HOWAREYOU , MNEMONIC = NO
APPLICATION.ID.. BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP-EB.CLEAR.FILES

PGM.FILE :

PROGRAM HOWAREYOU
1 TYPE.............. B
2. 1 GB SCREEN.TITLE howareyou
4. 1 BATCH.JOB...... @HOWAREYOU
5 PRODUCT........... EB
26 CURR.NO........... 1
27. 1 INPUTTER.......
28. 1 DATE.TIME...... 05 JUN 17 17:43
29 AUTHORISER........
30 CO.CODE...........
31 DEPT.CODE.........


Please note that there is no records about HOWAREYOU in BATCH, whether it is set as BATCH JOB or put in DATA.
Is there anyone can solve this?

Thank you for your help!

I would think it's a leftover of the last run (that also failed?!).

Clear the JOB.LIST, F.PROTOCOL and reset the status in BATCH before running again.

Hi JPB

Hi
search for FILE.TIDY.UP in F.LOCKING, might be a leftover there...

Hi VK & JPB

I found this record in F.LOCKING and deleted it.

LIST F.LOCKING PAGE 1 17:28:09 06 JUN 2017

@ID..... BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP-EB.CLEAR.FILES-2
@ID..... BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP-EB.CLEAR.FILES-2
KEY..... BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP-EB.CLEAR.FILES-2
CONTENT. F.JOB.LIST.1
REMARK..

And still nothing changed in COB, still same error.
I deleted it and restart tSA, it appears again.That's so weird....

Can I do 'CLEAR.FILE F.LOCKING' ?

No, don't clear F.LOCKING - it has many other uses...

Clear F.JOB.LIST.1

Also, post here the output of:
LIST F.BATCH 'BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP'

There should be an entry for F.JOB.LIST1 in F.LOCKING pointing to BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP-EB.CLEAR.FILES-2 as well, if so delete this one.
Never do CLEAR.FILE on F.LOCKING !

I just found a interest thing.
If I re-add a job 'HOWAREYOU' to BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP
The COB will works perfectly.
But if removed it, it will raised same error.

HI
what I see in the BATCH record is that DATE.TIME belongs to the year 2010.,.. How could that be?
Cheers

Hi VK

Yes, but it still could run COB...
I don't know why LAST.RUN.DATE changed but NEXT.RUN.DATE not.
it full of mystery...

To have a clearer view please post the result of

LIST F.BATCH "BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP" JOB.NAME VERIFICATION FREQUENCY NEXT.RUN.DATE LAST.RUN.DATE DATA ID-SUPP

I suppose the 2010 date belongs to another job.
NEXT.RUN.DATE is only updated on frequency like W or M when the COB was run on exact day . . .

The status of EB.CLEAR.FILES in BATCH is still 1, JED this to 0 (and also the PROCESS.STATUS), make sure the two entries in F.LOCKING are deleted and the JOB.LIST is cleared.

Hi
what I meant is "how the BATCH record was changed to add / remove HOWAREYOU if the DATE.TIME is old?"
Did you use JED for that?

@VK - sorry, misunderstanding!

As there is still RESERVED.10 he seems to be before R10, I think to remember there has been an error in R08 (?) that you can't commit a BATCH . . .

@jpb: are you aware of any concat files that are populated along with the BATCH? Could it be that "HOWAREYOU" is still stored elsewhere?

I know BATCH.RUNNING ("File to Hold of the List of current Batch Process Running") and BATCH.STATUS ("Status of batch process") - but I don't know the exact purpose of these files.

@VK
I meant if I add a JOB.NAME named 'HOWAREYOU' in 'BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP'
like this:
JOB.NAME.......... EOD.BLD.STMT.VAL.ENT   [color=red]HOWAREYOU[/color]   EB.CLEAR.FILES   EB.COPY.FILES.BOS   
                             EB.CLEAR.FILES   EB.PRIME.FILES   AC.FWD.EXPOSURE           
                             EB.OPEN.ACCOUNTING   SOD.SUSPENSE.PROCESS                   
                             ....

The COB will works perfectly.
But if removed it from JOB.NAME and runs COB again, would raised Fatal error in OPF error NO FILE.CONTROL

@JPB
Not R08, we use R09....
So in fact I should not changed any original T24 records in BATCH, right?

I have some questions. Can you explain it more clearly?
The status of EB.CLEAR.FILES in BATCH is still 1, JED this to 0 (and also the PROCESS.STATUS), make sure the two entries in F.LOCKING are deleted and the JOB.LIST is cleared.

1.) I know that JED EB.CLEAR.FILES to 0, but what is PROCESS.STATUS?
And what is 'two entries in F.LOCKING' ?

2.) When should I do this? while COB terminate at 'BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP' or before running COB?

Here is the result of

LIST F.BATCH "BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP" JOB.NAME VERIFICATION FREQUENCY NEXT.RUN.DATE LAST.RUN.DATE DATA ID-SUPP
LIST F.BATCH "BNK/FILE.TIDY.UP" JOB.NAME VERIFICATION FREQUENCY NEXT.RUN.DATE LAST.RUN.DATE DATA ID-SUPP PAGE    1 09:16:54  08 JUN 2017

JOB.NAME...... EOD.BLD.STMT.VAL.ENT   HOWAREYOU   EB.CLEAR.FILES
