SYSTEM call in 10.3.0

We are attempting a migration from HP-UX acucobol version 6.2.0.1 to RHEL Acucobol version 10.3.0.

We attempt to run the command:

dtconnect.pl prod X78B063 jsc.req jsc.rsp

Using:

CALL "C$SYSTEM" USING SYSTEM-COMMAND GIVING ERR-RETURN.

It returns 255. If I invoke the shell in the debugger, the above command works and returns zero. This is an evaluation copy if that matters.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!!

In order to determine what is causing this failure, it would be useful to try and narrow down the scope of the problem.

For example, can you execute any commands using C$SYSTEM, or, does only attempting to execute this specific Perl script fail?

Do you know if the Perl script is executing, and if so, do you have any way to determine if it is failing?

Also, have you tried reproducing this issue in a small test program?  It might be helpful to create a small test program that you can use to more easily diagnose this concern.

Once we get a better understanding of whether C$SYSTEM is working in this environment, or, if only particular Perl scripts are affected, then, we can determine what steps can be taken to further investigate this matter.
