Problem:

When trying to compile a COBOL program the following error is being returned:

cob32 environment variable not set?

Resolution:

The cause of this error is if you modify the $COBDIR/lang/C/cob.msg file trying to get the gcc, GNU compiler to work with Server Express. The gcc is not supported using AIX, Sun or HP/UX RISC. Once the modification is removed, you will be able to compile.
