I think your map and exec
statements are messing things up. You don't need both. Also, the
extension on the URL must be ,REXX (case shouldn't matter, but you DO
need to X characters in REXX).
Try the following:
If you prefer to not put .REXX in the URL, change
the exec and URL:
Finally, I'll add that CGIDEV (CGIDEV2's precursor) included REXX
templates and supporting programs. Very few people used the REXX
support, most likely because:
- AS/400 / iSeries REXX is very weak compared to other REXX
implementations, especially in I/O.
- Because REXX is interpreted, it doesn't perform as well as
compiled RPG IV or ILE COBOL. It was particularly slow back on CISC
AS/400s, which comprised most of the AS/400 installed base during
CGIDEV's days. The RISC implementation is much faster, but still not
as fast as compiled code.
- Not many people know REXX well enough to use it for CGI.
For these reasons, I removed REXX support when I developed CGIDEV2.
Your's is the first REXX CGI programming question to appear in the
EASY400Group. And, I don't recall receiving any such questions from
anywhere else either.
It's okay to use REXX for simple CGI tasks or for educational purposes,
but I wouldn't recommend its use beyond that.
