Problems Running AppTrack

If you enter the command:

$COBDIR/aslmf/apptrack

and a message such as:

/aslmf/apptrack not found

is displayed and nothing else happens, simply logging into the correct user is not sufficient to set up your environment to run AppTrack.

You need to establish where the Micro Focus Server for your application has been installed, and set up the necessary environment variables according to the operating system.

If you don't know the directory in which Micro Focus Server is installed, you can scan your system looking for all directories that contain AppTrack by using the command:

find / -name apptrack -print

The resulting display from this command might contain lines telling you that you do not have access to certain directories. Ignore these. One of the lines output by this command should be:

 cobol-installation-directory/aslmf/apptrack

For example, you might find that the line:

 /usr/lib/cobol/aslmf/apptrack

is displayed. In this case, Micro Focus Server is installed in the directory /usr/lib/cobol/aslmf.

If the output of the find command does not list any directories containing "apptrack", Micro Focus Server is not installed on your system.

If the output of the find command displays more than one directory containing "apptrack", note that only one of these is for your application. The other instances are for applications installed and in use by other users on your system. You can check the date each AppTrack was installed to see which is yours, by using the following command for each directory listed:

ls -l cobol-installation-directory/aslmf/apptrack

If you are still unsure, ask your system administrator which Micro Focus Server directories belong to other users. Other users can find out which Micro Focus Server directories belong to them by running their copy of AppTrack, and entering 2 (License Summary).

Once you have ascertained which Micro Focus Server directory relates to your application, make a note of the directory for future use, and return to the beginning of this section to start AppTrack.
