APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Environment:
    MDM: TWS 9.1 on AIX (LANG=Ja_JP)
    TDWC: TDWC 9.1 on AIX
    TWS_TISDIR is correctly set.
    
    Replication steps.
    1. Launch a job which echos MBCS strings.
    2. Browse its joblog using TDWC. (Browser lang=Japanese)
    -> MBCS characters are garbled.
    
    3. Display its joblog using "conman sj stdlist". (LANG=Ja_JP)
    -> MBCS characters are garbled.
    
    Notes:
    -The joblog file content is correct. -> MBCS characters are NOT
    garbled.
    -If "conman sj" is performed under LANG=C environment, MBCS
    characters are NOT garbled.
    

Local fix

  • n/a
    

Problem summary

  • The problem is due to new icu libraries (5.0) that are not able
    to retrive the local codeset on AIX. New icu libraries are to be
    shipped with TWS (built with the options
    CFLAGS=-DU_HAVE_NL_LANGINFO_CODESET=0
    CXXFLAGS=-DU_HAVE_NL_LANGINFO_CODESET=0) require that the
    following environmen variables are set in StartUp and Jobmanrc:
    LANG=Ja_JP
    LC_MESSAGES=Ja_JP (the locale information)
    LC_CTYPE=Ja_JP.xxxx (LC_CTYPE contains codepage information,
    they can be retrieved issuing the command locale -a, as an
    instance LC_CTYPE=Ja_JP.IBM-943)
    This information will be added in the official documentation
    too.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The apar will be fixed in TWS 9.1 FP02 and TWS 9.2 FP01
