Default file path on application server ?

[Former Member]

Can you tell me what is the file path of the file 'dataset' in the below code? I think it is stored in application server but not sure of the path. Is there any default path for such things?

Thank you very much!

• 2.) The first line shows exactly the comment

Where is the code for

perform open_dataset using dataset.

DATASET is entered on selection screen. Does not look like Logical file is used here but it will be helpful if you place code of this perform.

FORM OPEN_DATASET USING P_DATASET.

OPEN DATASET P_DATASET

ENCODING DEFAULT.

Thanks Ashish.

The code shows that DATASET value is entered on selection screen. It should be entered with the path and file name.

Hope this answers your question.

I think it will be the value of the profile parameter DIR_HOME. Go to RZ11, enter DIR_HOME and do display. There you will see the full path of the home directory. That is where it should be.

You can also check the other DIR* profile parameters there and see which one it is.
