Hello list,
Just IPLed z/OS 3.1 on our sandbox and tried to start zOSMF. The angel process
started but the server process fails. I compared file permissions in the
/global/zosmf directories between my 2.4 system and 3.1 system and they're the
same. The server is failing in the IZUSVR1 step with a cond code 2048.
STDOUT output:
Launching zosmfServer (z/OSMF 3.1.0/wlp-1.0.75.cl230320230319-1900) on IBM J9
VM, version 8.0.8.20 - pmz6480sr8fp20-20240112_01(SR8 FP20) (en_US)

CWWKE0005E: The runtime environment could not be launched.
CWWKE0018E: An exception occurred while launching the runtime environment:
java.lang.NullPointerException
STDERR output:

"and several continuations of this error"
The first message in the STDERR says it couldn't write to the messages.log
file. That is incorrect. Here's the output from that file:

I noticed it is running java 8 where I have java 11 and 17 installed. Does
zOSMF work on 3.1 with java 8?
Any idea what I may be missing here?
TIA
