Status: Unverified
SYMPTOM(s):
Getting error message "logname: no login name" when running the OS-COMMAND
Message "logname: no login name" appears when executing OS-COMMAND
FACT(s) (Environment):
Same error message does not appear when executing same command from interactive shell
Unix profile uses the C shell (CSH) as its default shell
UNIX
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
CAUSE:
The problem is within the shell profile being used. OpenEdge invokes the /bin/csh shell when it encounters UNIX or OS-COMMAND statement. The user's c shell profile contains call to logname causing the reported message to appear.
FIX:
Check the c shell .profile file of the user account that started the OpenEdge session and remove or comment out call to 'logname' command.
