    ****************************************************************
    Validation of the function code, passed to the CICS SVC in R0,
    has failed. This is because the AFCB that is built for the
    Spooler subtask has been badly constructed. AFTDWLEN is not
    set correctly.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code in the SUBTAUTH routine of DFHCSVC has been changed to
    construct the AFCB correctly. In particular, field AFTDWLEN is
    correctly initialized. This change will require a re-IPL.
