I just downloaded PIPESERV, PICKPIPE, and CMS PIPELINES. I'm trying to
get the basic PIPESERV functions working.
When I issue "PIPE PIPESERV", PIPESERV appears to initialize. I see the
"loading authorization file" message, Copyright statement, and "ready"
message. When I issue a command at the console, it's echoed on the
screen and logged in the PIPSRVLG log file but not executed. I tried
sending a command from the one ID I authorized in the authorization
file, and got the same results (command echoed on screen, logged, not
executed).
I tried tracing PIPESERV REXX. When PIPESERV initializes, it goes to
the "read_stream" routine and the last statement executed is "select
anyinput". When I enter console input or send commands from the other
ID, nothing appears to happen. I was expecting to see some trace
activity indicating what it was doing with my commands.
Any recommendations on what I should try?
Below is PIPESERV's "read_stream" routine in case anyone's interested.
We're running at the following level:

read_stream:
/* Stop PIPESERV if console stream has disappeared */ 'streamstate input
%cmd'
if rc < 0 | rc > 8
then do
say 'Command connection severed. 'pipeserv' terminating.'
call TheEnd 4
end
'select anyinput' /* Read any input stream */
'readto input'
wk = rc
if wk <> 0
then do
'select input %cmd'
'sever input'
call TheEnd wk * (wk <> 12) /* i.e. rc -4095 if stalled */
end
return
