PK15687: DFHWB0150 UNABLE TO LOCATE HTML TEMPLATE IF TEMPLATE NAME IS MIXED CASE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• An EXEC CICS SEND MAP MAPNAME(xxxxxxxx) may result in a
  DFHWB0150 message when executed through the 3270 Bridge if the
  variable used for the mapname contains mixed case or lower case
  characters.  When executed through a regular 3270 terminal, CICS
  folds the map name to uppercase before going to look for the map
  in the DFHRPL concatenation.  However, when executed through the
  CICS 3270 Bridge, CICS does not fold the template name, and will
  fail to find the template in the doctemplate library because the
  name being searched for is not all upper case.

  ****************************************************************
  A transaction running over the CICS Web Bridge using DFHWBTTA or
  DFHWBTTB, issues an EXEC CICS SEND MAP. The map or mapset name
  is specified in lower case. If the corresponding template is
  already defined in CICS then all works OK, however if the
  template is not defined then DFHWBBMS issues an
  add_replace_doctemplate for the template. The BLDL which is used
  to read the DFHHTML PDS passes the mapset name in lower case
  (with an appended suffix.) This leads to a not found error
  being returned and, if not handled, an abend ABM0.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHWBBMS has been changed in routine INSERT_DOCUMENT.
  If the supplied template name is in lower case then we will
  Issue the INQUIRE_TEMPLATE_STATUS for both the lower case
  name and an upper case version. If the lower case version is
  found we use that, if the lower case is not found but the upper
  case version is found then we will use the upper case version.
  If neither version is found, we will use the upper case version
  to issue the ADD_REPLACE_DOCTEMPLATE.
