We are running UniData on HP-UX and I capture Unix info regularly. Rather than using a COMO, just do it with the EXECUTE command like so:
STMT = "!ls -lia" (or whatever you need to capture) EXECUTE STMT CAPTURING UNIX.TXT Then loop through UNIX.TXT as needed. If the results can be big, use LOOP/REMOVE rather than FOR/NEXT.

Not We have a client on UV/HP-UX running a BASIC routine from a Cron job. The BASIC code shells out from EXECUTE and Captures data from the OS. The Capture is failing and it looks like COMO gets the StdOut that should be directed into a variable. I'm not sure yet if Como plays any part or if all Execute/Capturing instructions will fail when executed from Cron. The code works fine from TCL. I'm also checking to see if there are any other options or middleware, and exactly what's being executed in the Cron line. Until I get more info though, I'd like to know if this is a recognized issue. Under what conditions can we expect something like this to fail?: Execute "sh -c ... " Capturing result Thanks.
