Error: OPS0925E Invalid Compiled OPS/REXX Program

Products

• OPS/MVS Event Management & Automation

Issue/Introduction

When attempting to run or access a compiled OPS/REXX program, the following error messages may occur:

• OPS0925E Invalid compiled OPS/REXX program - pgmname
• REBUILD FAILED FOR COMPILED REXX PROGRAM - pgmname

This error typically indicates that the OPS/MVS environment cannot successfully load the compiled REXX program from the library allocated to the OPSEXEC DDNAME.

 

Environment

OPS/MVS Event Management & Automation

Cause

This issue usually occurs if the OPSEXEC concatenation is pointing to the source library (CCLXEXEC) rather than the compiled library (CCLXOPEX), or if the library attributes are misconfigured (e.g. incorrect LRECL).

Resolution

Review the allocations of your TSO session or batch environment and ensure the following relationship between DDNAMES and library names (DSNAMES) is correct:

DDNAME	DSNAME	Contents
SYSEXEC	prefix.CCLXEXEC	Source OPS/REXX programs (not compiled)
OPSEXEC	prefix.CCLXOPEX	Compiled OPS/REXX programs

Troubleshooting Steps

1. Identify the libraries allocated to the OPSEXEC DD concatenation.
2. Verify the DCB attributes of each library. For OPS/MVS compiled REXX (CCLXOPEX), the expected LRECL should be 4096 (or 4090).
3. Check for empty or "shell" datasets in the concatenation that may have been initialized with standard LRECL=80 (FB) attributes.
4. Remove or recreate any offending datasets with the correct attributes.
5. Ensure the OPS/MVS userid has the proper permissions to read all libraries in the OPSEXEC concatenation.
