Hello, A customer reports an error which happens every time they cold start a region: the transaction executed inmediately after starting the region abends with the code A144. The following is an extract of the console.msg file corresponding to that error: ERZ015032E/0158 01/22/97 10:39:23 TCICSORA LIP1: Transaction 'ALT1' attempts to run program 'PATU3 00' which is disabled ERZ014016E/0028 01/22/97 10:39:23 TCICSORA LIP1: Transaction 'ALT1', Abend 'A144', at 'LIP1'. ERZ016050W/0234 01/22/97 10:39:23 TCICSORA LIP1: Logical unit of work for transaction 'ALT1' has b een backed out; Distributed Transaction Service (TRAN) reason 'ENC-tra-1025: A client (not the tra nsaction service) aborted' The solution they use is to execute NEWCOPY from CEMT, after this, the transaction runs fine. They have to repeat this process every time they restart CICS. The transaction calls a MF Cobol program. The system is running OSF 3.2C, CICS 2.1 and MF Cobol 3.2B. Is this a misconfiguration problem in the region or some problem with their code?. Is this related with note 164?. Thanks in advance Ricardo Lopez Cencerrado [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

| 165.1 | Program disabled in PD stanza? | CICS03::helen | Helen Cake | Wed Jan 29 1997 13:51 | 31 |
Ricardo, The following error in console.msg implies that the entry in the PD stanza for the program PATU300 is disabled. For the program to execute sucessfully, it must be enabled. You should be able to use cicsupdate to do this. >>ERZ015032E/0158 01/22/97 10:39:23 TCICSORA LIP1: Transaction 'ALT1' attempts >>to run program 'PATU300' which is disabled >>The solution they use is to execute NEWCOPY from CEMT, after this, the >>transaction runs fine. I suspect that running CEMT NEWCOPY sets the program entry to be enabled. >>They have to repeat this process every time they restart CICS. The >>transaction calls a MF Cobol program. If they tried warm starting CICS (as opposed to cold starting), I would expect the transaction to work OK. If this is not the problem, please include information about any differences between a cold and warm start of the region, the PD stanza entry and the TD stanza entry in a reply here. Also please say whether you are trying to run with COBOL caching enabled. Thanks, Helen. | |||||
