Hi,

I've downloaded BIRT 2_3_2_2 build into our z/OS UNIX shared directory. This shared directory was mapped via Windows (e.g. My Computer --> Tools --> Map Network Drive). We then use 7Zip.exe to extract BIRT to the mapped drive.

After customizing JZOS out-of-the-box JCL JVMJCL66 and setup MAINARGS properties, something like this:

//JAVA EXEC PROC=JVMPRC66,
// JAVACLS='org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.ReportRunner',
.
.
.
//MAINARGS DD *
--format HTML
--output /u/tmpuser/test.html
--file /u/tmpuser/hello_world.rptdesign



It returned this error message:

Are there any special BIRT customization requirements needed for z/OS platforms?

To follow-up my previous post...

1. UNIX permission was set to 775 to all $BIRT_HOME objects.

2. I compared it with the Windows platform; and from the same directory ($BIRT_HOME/ReportEngine/configuration) org.eclipse.core.runtime and org.eclipse.equinox.app sub-directories were missing from z/OS.

3. I've also noticed after the ReportRunner was terminated, the $BIRT_HOME/ReportEngine/configuration directory got some exception logs:

A breakthrough... I used the native z/OS jar utility to unzip the BIRT file, i.e.,

/usr/lpp/java/J6.0_64/bin/jar -xvf ./birt-runtime-2_3_2.zip
