Hi,

I have setup the Enterprise server to execute a Batch workload. But while trying to submit the job on windows (Which executes a simple COBOL program of reading from a file and writing to output file) I am getting " Program not loaded. RTS error 173". 

I have specified the LOADLIB correctly in JES Program path which contains .dll and the program got compiled successfully. Please advise if there are any other paths that I should specify in Enterprise server where the program executable will be searched. 

Any help to resolve this issue would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
Some suggestions you can consider are:
-Can you share the path that you have set, e.g. on my JCL region which works I have path set as follows: C:\\Temp\\JCLPLI\\loadlib does yours look similar?
-As a test can you consider to compile to a different format such as .INT or .GNT, is that then found? To see if the format.dll is causing an issue.
-Also, since setting the JES Program Path path has the region been restarted, if not please consider that and advise if that helps, that can help ensure that changes/paths are correctly recognized.
