Well... the reasons may not be vivid unless u post the error messages and the piece of code that performs the sort.

If 20 is the return code passed back from sort, then it means the sort message data set ddname was not found. The default ddname is SYSOUT, but it could have been changed to a different ddname for the program in various ways. You need to determine the ddname that's needed and supply a DD statement for it.
