Error description
A user application running in user key9 links to a JAVA program which then runs on an open J9 TCB. The JAVA program then does an EXEC CICS XCTL to a COBOL program. An LE abend4038 occurs and then an ABEND0C4 in DFHAPLI1 as follows : DFHSR0001 AN ABEND (CODE 0C4/AKEA) HAS OCCURRED AT OFFSET X'00004280' IN PROGRAM DFHAPLI1. . DFHAPLI1 is running in key 9 but trying to access the EIS which is in CICS key 8 storage. CICS then loops issuing a messages : DFHSR0622 applid An attempt to access the ECDSA has caused the abend which follows: DFHSR0001 AN ABEND (CODE 0C4/AKEA) HAS OCCURRED AT OFFSET X'00004280' IN PROGRAM DFHAPLI1.
Local fix
Consider restarting CICS with STGPROT=NO in the SIT.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Program check in DFHAPLI1 after a Java * * program XCTLs to a non-Java program. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** An application running in user key links to a Java program which performs an EXEC CICS XCTL to a COBOL program. An LE abend4038 occurs during rununit_termination for the COBOL program which drives DFHAPLI1's recovery routine. This routine tests a flag in the PLCB, plcb_hpj_program and switches to user key if it is on. Because the COBOL program inherited the Java program's PLCB on the XCTL, plcb_hpj_program is on. Control will not be passed to a Java program, but instead to a label in DFHAPLI1 immediately following the point where LE was called for rununit_termination. The next instruction attempts to update the EIS which is in CICS key storage, but program checks because DFHAPLI1 is now in user key and CICS loops.

Problem conclusion
DFHPGLE has been changed to turn off plcb_hpj_program for non-Java programs.
