Error description
When you pick the 'Close Window' link from the navigation frame in the Web User Interface (WUI), the browser sends a URL back to the WUI server to mark this window CLOSED. The resources associated with the window are freed in the server. The EYUVC1214E is sent back to the browser letting them know that they should close the window. The message is misleading in that the browser window remains open.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICSPlex SM V3R1M0 Users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: - The 'Close Window' hyperlink * * contained on the CICSPlex SM Web User * * Interface (WUI) Navigation frame does * * not close the browser window. * * * * When this hyperlink is used, message: * * * * EYUVC1214E Window closed. * * * * is displayed in the Web browser * * window. * * * * - WUI View Editor users may receive * * message: * * * * EYUVE0370E Unable to edit View set * * (<object>) as it is * * already being updated by * * another user (<userid>). * * Please select another * * View set name for edit. * * * * or message: * * * * EYUVE0051E Unable to edit Menu * * (<object>) as it is * * already being updated by * * another user (<userid>). * * Please select another * * Menu name for edit. * * * * when attempting to edit a View set or * * Menu that was previously being * * edited. * * * * This problem occurs if the user * * closes a browser window (via the * * 'Close Window' hyperlink or Web * * browser window controls) that * * contains an unsaved View set or Menu. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: After applying the PTF that resolves this * * APAR, all Web User Interface Servers must * * be recycled to pick up the new code. Note * * that the restarts do not need to be done at * * the same time. * **************************************************************** - Neither the 'Close Window' hyperlink or the 'Window closed' response sent to the browser will attempt to close the Web browser window displayed on the users desktop. - When the WUI receives a 'Close Window' request, method EYU0VISL is invoked in the WUI Server to update the WUI control blocks associated with the browser window so that they are eligible for 'Housekeeping' or 'Garbage Collection'. This 'Housekeeping' runs periodically in the WUI, to free resources associated with dormant windows. Until these resources are freed, WUI objects will remain allocated to the window, and therefore not available for other windows or users to edit.
Problem conclusion
- The HTML used to generate the 'Close Window' hyperlink has been changed to invoke a JavaScript function in order to attempt to close the Web browser window. This will only function on a JavaScript enabled Web browser. - EYU0VISL has been updated to perform the 'Housekeeping' of closed windows immediately.

Comments
- The 'Close Window' hyperlink contained on the CICSPlex SM Web User Interface (WUI) Navigation frame does not close the browser window. When this hyperlink is used, message: EYUVC1214E Window closed. is displayed in the Web browser window. - WUI View Editor users may receive message: EYUEVE0370E Unable to edit View set (<object>) as it is already being updated by another user (<userid>). Please select another View set name for edit. or message: EYUEVE0051E Unable to edit Menu (<object>) as it is already being updated by another user (<userid>). Please select another Menu name for edit. when attempting to edit a View set or Menu that was previously being edited. This problem occurs if the user closes a browser window (via the 'Close Window' hyperlink or Web browser window controls) that contains an unsaved View set or Menu. - Neither the 'Close Window' hyperlink or the 'Window closed' response sent to the browser will attempt to close the Web browser window displayed on the users desktop. - When the WUI receives a 'Close Window' request, method EYU0VISL is invoked in the WUI Server to update the WUI control blocks associated with the browser window so that they are eligible for 'Housekeeping' or 'Garbage Collection'.
