Hi.

I need to convert from codepage 1141 to 1250.
So I used
/cwbnltbl 1250 1141 <IP> <UID> <PASS>
/cwbnltbl 1141 1250 <IP> <UID> <PASS>

I've get in /opt/ibm/iSeriessAccess/conv_tables 2 files:
047504e2.tbl.iconv
04e20475.tbl.iconv

File names means that it's correct 1250->1141 and 1141->1250 but these
files are empty.
What do I do wrong ?

regards,
tomasz

How did you transfer them, ISERIES ACCESS or FTP or ??
These files, were they populated on the host side first.

Hi.

I've run command on linux and files appears on linux into conv_tables
directory. I didn't get them from iSeries.
Where should I look for them?

Tomasz, nothing is wrong -- per http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/index.jsp?topic=/nls/rbagsccsidmappings.htm the i cannot go directly between 1141 <--> 1250. The empty .iconv files are trigger files that tells the client code that iconv_open() worked once for the conversion between the two codepages and therefore the normal i Access for Linux table download will not be used. On iAWin I'd expect that a two-step conversion would be attempted going from 1141 <--> 13488 <--> 1250.
