Error description
The customer is making a Web Service call from CICS to WAS using SOAP over JMS. The problem is that CICS is sending the URL with ampersands unescaped and WAS and MQ manuals specify that ampersands must be escaped.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: CICS sends unescaped ampersand ('&') * * characters in a JMS message. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When CICS requests a web service using SOAP over JMS, the options in the endpoint URL (sent as part of the SOAP message) are separated by ampersand('&') characters. These ampersands should be replaced by the escape sequence '&' in a JMS message. The web service provider cannot parse the options correctly because the ampersands are not escaped.
Problem conclusion
DFHPITQ has been changed to replace the ampersand character with the escape sequence '&' in the JMS option string.
