Issue/Introduction

Getting a message like this when casting a package.

C1U0710E  EXIT 7 - INVALID PACKAGE-ID FORMAT     VALID APPL (POS 3 - 5) ARE: EQUAL TO YOUR SYSTEM

Can't find the C1U0710E  message in any of the documentation. What is this error message and how is it produced?

Environment

Release : all

Cause

This error message is produced from exit 7. This is a user written exit normally written in Assembler or Cobol.

 

 

Resolution

The exit can be written to check values in the exit and error if the values are not correct. In this case it checks that the SYSTEM  is in position 3 to 5 of the package ID.

Check the exit 7 for the following fields:

If the exit is written in Assembler the assembler fields are  PECBMGCD,PECBMGLN,PECBMGSZ and PECBMSG. 

If the exit was written in COBOL the fields are PECB-MESSAGE-ID,PECB-ERROR-MESS-LENGTH and PECB-MESSAGE.
