Cause

These symptoms are usually caused by a corrupt map definition in the dictionary DDLDML area.

Resolution

To resolve the problem the map definition in the dictionary has to be deleted and recreated. Use the following procedure to recreate the map:

1. Decompile the map in batch by running RHDCMPUT with the following input parameters:
   PROCESS=DECOMPILE MAP=<map name> 
   
2. Delete the map online using task code MAPC. 
   If you have problems deleting the map online it can be deleted in batch by running RHDCMAP1 with the following input: 
   DELETE MAP <map name> VERSION nnnn
   
3. Re-add the map in batch by running RHDCMAP1 using as input the decompiled map source from step 1.
   
   
4. Compile the map in MAPC or in batch by running RHDCMPUT with the following input: 
   PROCESS=LOAD
   MAP=<map name>
