Error description
EXEC CICS WEB SEND does not sent data to non-HTTP client in CICS TS 5.4. At 5.2 the non-HTTP data is copied into the response buffer that is obtained by DFHWBBLI (httpout). In 5.4 the data is left in the 64-bit buffer (wrb_send_body_buffer) obtained by the WEB SEND. This causes DFHWBBLI to return to DFHWBA with the response data length being zero. This causes DFHWBA and then DFHWBSR to believe it has nothing to send.
