Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a Web Services is configured for VALIDATION(YES), you may
  receive message DFHPI1007, indicating the incorrect input is an
  XML_FORMAT_ERROR.
  This occurs because the data in the buffer being passed to
  DFHPICC is expected to be in CCSID 037, but is instead in CCSID
  1208 due to validation having taken place.

Local fix

• Reconfigure your WEBSERVICE resource(s) to specify
  VALIDATION(NO).

  CICS is being used as a WEBSERVICE provider, where validation
  has been turned on for this WEBSERVICE. DFHPITL obtains the
  SOAP body in the LOCALCCSID. DFHPIVAL is called to validate the
  data, and replaces it with a UTF-8 version (code page 1208).
  DFHPICC gets back the data in 1208 when it expects it in the
  local code page, and fails to parse the data, issuing message
  DFHPI1007 indicating an XML_FORMAT_ERROR.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHPITL has been amended to ensure that after validation the
  SOAP message being processed is in the correct code page.
