Problem:

The command is   cob -z prog.cbl . The Intermediate Code file and the object file are created . The Callable Shared Object file is not created .

This message is also displayed if the command is cob -x prog.cbl

Resolution:

These messages are displayed when the environment variable LIBLIST is validated :

If $LIBLIST  is validated to a file that has a size to zero : the message is :

"cob64: can not execute"

If $LIBLIST  is validated to a file that does not exist ,the message is :

"cob64: error opening: name of the file "

If $LIBLIST  is validated to a file that exists ,the message is :

"cob64: illegal format in name of the file"

the file is displayed  

$LIBLIST specifies an alternative file for Cob to use; you should not use it unless

a Micro Focus representative asks you to.
