Problem:

We are getting the following error when starting an Enterprise Server region:

CASCD0003S Failed to 'exec' COBOL RTS, reason = 13

Resolution:

Reason 13 is a unix errno 13 which is Permission Denied. This is due to wrong permissions on the CAS executables in the Server Express installation.

As root, execute $COBDIR/bin/casperm

Answer the questions and when asked about the Enterprise Server administrator userid, specify the userid that was being used when trying to start the region with. This will set the proper permissions and that userid will be able to start regions.
