In addition to my previous mail.
I made a „stupid“ mistake in my code, while debugging I wrote
Time(‚R') instead of
res = Time(‚R‘)
And the returned value went the wrong way and generated an error. However, the
message could not be encoded, see this error message
108 *-* Time('R')
>>> "0"

+++ "RC(127)"
I think this depends on the fact that the korn shell is the default, rather
than bash (/bin/sh)? I have had this problem before but could not understand
what was going on.
