Issue/Introduction
Customer explained the problem:
This is a new setup we did recently, and we are trying to receive a mainframe file on our AS/400 using TCP/IP XCOM.
We have given the valid user ID and password to the mainframe team to send me us the file but it did not work. This is
from the XCOM log:
XCM7050 ... Message . . . . : Error while checking password for user user_ID.
Note: user_ID is masked out from the original.
Environment
OS : IBM i
Release : 11.0
Component : CA XCOM Data Transport for AS/400 i5/OS
Cause
Resolution
We found this information on a past case in our DB--sent to customer to review:
-
Definition:
XCAS4R to XCMVS successful. XCMVS to XCAS4R via TCP/IP fails with XCM7050 error while checking password
and CPF2204 User Profile &1 Not Found. While USERID and PASSWORD are supplied, transfer runs
under the USERID that started XCOM. This USERID has TOTAL authority and access.
Resolution:
The AS/400 typically has all USERIDs in UPPERCASE. Placing the USERID in UPPERCASE resolved
the security error.
-
Customer replied that they acted on our remarks and the transfer worked out.
