S0C4 abend in Endevor Web services spawned started task

Issue/Introduction
When the setup is not correct, there is a chance for the Endevor Web Services started task to crash with S0C4-04 abend. The MVS symptom dump output reports the abend within load module BC1PAPI3. The Serviceability aid from Common Components report the abend in CSECT BC1PELXL within load module BC1PAPI3
See the "additional information" section for an example of the abend
Cause
This abend has been sporadically observed when the load modules used by the STC are at a maintenance level which is lower than that of the Endevor Web Services that run in the Tomcat STC.
Resolution
Ensure that the CSIQAUTH and CSIQLOAD libraries pointed to by STEPLIB DD and CONLIB DD (if used) in the JCL of the started task contain the same maintenance level that has been applied via SMP/E.
This is especially important when an update of Web Services is deployed from the SMP/E target libraries to the Tomcat STC. The abend might arise after this point if the loadlibs for the started task are not current on maintenance.
To check the maintenance level in the loadlibs you can use the CAMODID utility
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN DD *
CAMODID DETAIL DSN(your.CSIQAUTH.library)
CAMODID DETAIL DSN(your.CSIQLOAD.library)
