APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The following extended rule causes TX32.exe to crash
strdate(#SYS_DATE, "%Y%m%d%", s);
This is an invalid date format and should be:
strdate(#SYS_DATE, "%Y%m%d", s);
Still this should not crash TX32.exe but throw a translation
error.

Local fix

  • STRRTC 378775
JH/JH
Circumvention:
Check that there is not an extra % when specifying your date
format or make sure all % are followed up by another character.

c0000417

Problem conclusion

  • Added code to GSW 5.3.1 to enable a bug in previous versions
that allowed for the customer to have the invalid date format
of %Y%m%d% in their map rules.
Delivered in:
