Funny, I just ran into this. My ID's OMVS segment was using /bin/bash
which was a symbolic link to Rocket's Conda environment (where bash is
installed). bash does not behave well with BPXBATCH. There are a few
ways around the issue. I finally just added:
#!/bin/bash -l
to my script I was running.
The -l causes it to be treated as a login shell and reads /etc/profile.
If you are using bash, you can also code:
//STDENV DD *
BASH_ENV=/etc/profile
/*
//STDPARM DD *
sh env
/*

Im trying to run the shell script (httpd server) as a started task
If I use userid websrv it takes the instream //STDENV and uses it, and
works
if I use a different userid, it ignores the instream //STDENV values, and
fails because of Libpath.
With WEBSRV it takes the //STDENV and ignores /etc/profile.
With WEB2 it ignores //STDENV and uses /etc/profile
The userids have very similar OMVS attributes.
My shell script displays all of the "set" variables, so I can tell what is
being used.
The doc says
*Note: When using BPXBATCH with the SH option (SH is the default),
environment variables speci®ed in the STDENV DD are overridden by those
speci®ed in /etc/profile and .profile (whichoverrides /etc/profile). This
is because SH causes BPXBATCH to execute a login shell that runsthe
ietcipro® e script and runs the user's .profile.*
I do not have any .profile shells.
Is there a magic attribute I am missing?
