    Problem Symptoms:
    (1)
    When started from the job_list on a customer's server the procedure p_arc_01 fails with the following error messages:

    -----------------------------------------------------------------
    Now testing Oracle connection with ARC DB
    Testing TWO_TASK connection to il-arc01.arc3 :
    ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    Could not connect to ARC_ADMIN (ARC_ADMIN)
    **** Aborting ****
    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    The output above comes from the dependent script p_arc_01_test. This script tries to connect to the Oracle database with the Connect Identifier il-arc01.arc3 and fails.


    (2)
    However, the procedure p_arc_01 completes successfully when started with the same parameters from the command line.

    Cause:
    The root cause why the procedure p_arc_01 fails when started from the job_list has not been determined yet.

    Resolution:
    Workaround:

    Add the following line to the file prof_library of the Aleph Library where the procedure p_arc_01 is supposed to run:

    unsetenv ARC_TWO_TASK

    Add this line at the top of the section "Reporting Center Definitions" in the file prof_library.

    The command above ensures that the variable $ARC_TWO_TASK has no value when the script p_arc_01 starts, regardless of any value that the variable may have had before.
