Library list for Web server

Library list for Web server: "Although the Web server jobs show as user profile QTMHHTTP, which uses QDFTJOBD for library list, the actual library list is found in jobd qhttpsvr/qzhbhttp. Simply change this jobd to match your production library list and your conversions from green screen to Web service will be much less painful. "

  2. Actually, this topic has been discussed ad nauseum on the Easy400 and midrange.com lists. This particular approach is not recommended by consensus because it allows for no flexibility - every web server instance has the same library list.

    On my web server, I have a routing entry in the QHTTPSVR subsystem definition, and the called program sets the library list based on the job name, which is the same as the web server instance. I hard code the libraries, but soft coding them is easy if you wish.

    Another approach is to have a standard program called by all of the CGI jobs that adjusts the library list.
