This is most likely a network/firewall issue. When you execute a
<process> in a STAX job, the process is started asynchronously on the
remote machine. When the process completes, the remote machine attempts
to communicate back to the STAX service machine, in order to inform the
STAX service that the process has completed. If this communication fails,
then the STAX process will never end. On the remote machine where the
process is executing, try running "STAF <stax-service-hostname> PING PING"
to see if that works. If not, then there is some sort of network/firewall
issue blocking the communication.

[staf-users] STAX process jobs never ends
G'day.
I'm using STAX 3.3.5 and trying to get a STAX job to issue a command to
the
remote machine.
Now I issue the commands
Please note I have remove actual commands and ip addresses. I have proven
that this behaviour occurs regardless.
This command works and returns the output
staf <ip> PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND "<cmd>" RETURNSTDOUT RETURNSTDERR
WAIT
staf <ip> PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND "<cmd>" RETURNSTDOUT RETURNSTDERR
followed by
staf <ip> PROCESS QUEURY HANDLE <handle>
shows that the command has indeed completed.
So when I issue the STAX job
<process name="'cmd'">
<location>machine</location>
<command mode="'shell'">'"<cmd>"'</command>
<stderr mode="'stdout'"/>
<returnstdout/>
</process>
Can anyone explain why it never completes?
Thanks
Phil Rumble
