| Note: In this section, "LANLISTEN" and "TP000000nn" are used as the default names for the Sub-system name and the Transaction jobs. These are the names used by LANSA when a standard LANSA install is performed. Depending on your chosen naming convention, your Sub-system and Transaction jobs may be named differently. |
Q. How do I know if the IBM i Listener port is active?
A. Use the IBM i command NETSTAT.
...
Look for Local Port 4545 (default) and check that the state is LISTEN.
Q. The Listener IBM i sub-system starts but there are no jobs.
A. If you see a LANLISTEN Sub-system started but no jobs listed in the sub-system, then select option five to Work with the Sub-system, display the job logs by selecting option 10, and look for any errors.

Also check the library lists being used for the jobs. Make sure that the proper libraries such as QTEMP, QGPL and the LANSA Program Library are included - in that sequence. (QOTHPRDOWN is used in the instructions for setting up the LANLISTEN Sub-system. QOTHPRDOWN, by default, has a job description QDFTJOBD. This usually does not have DCXPGMLIB in its library list.)
Q. The Listener IBM i Sub-system starts and a job starts and then stops. There are no jobs running.
