EGL0086E An entry for the specified called program program_name cannot be found in the linkproperty_file linkage properties file.

Explanation

The calling program was generated with the remoteBind set to RUNTIME in the linkage option part, in the callLink element for the called program. During run time an entry for a called program cannot be found in the linkage properties file. The reason for the error may be one of the following:
  • The linkage properties file cannot be found.
  • The file was found, but an entry for the called program is not in that file.
  • An incorrect linkage properties file was specified.

User Response

If the program is being called from a Java™ wrapper, the linkage properties file must be named link.properties, where link is the name of the linkage options part used at generation. Make sure the file exists, has an entry for the called program, and is in a directory or archive specified in the CLASSPATH variable.

If the program is being called from a program running in the J2EE environment, the linkage properties file can be identified by the cso.linkageOptions.link environment variable in the deployment descriptor, where link is the name of the linkage options part used at generation. If the environment variable is not set, the linkage properties file must be named link.properties, where link is the name of the linkage options part used at generation. Make sure the file exists, has an entry for the called program, and is in a directory or archive specified in CLASSPATH.

If the program is being called from a program not running in the J2EE environment, the situation is as follows:
  • The linkage properties file can be identified by the cso.linkageOptions.link property, where link is the name of the linkage options part used at generation. If the property is not set, the linkage properties file may be named link.properties, where link is the name of the linkage options part used at generation. In these two cases, make sure the file exists, has an entry for the called program, and is in a directory or archive specified in CLASSPATH.
  • If the linkage properties file cannot be found, the linkage properties must be in the program properties file; in that case, make sure the program properties file includes an entry for the called program and that the program properties file is in a directory or archive specified in CLASSPATH.
