Error description
If a CICS-Webservice throws an user-abend (EXEC CICS ABEND...) and that service runs with "Identity Propagation", then the SOAPFault shows the wrong "program" in the SOAPFault-details-section. In our environment, we've configured a "transport-http-handler" in the provider-pipeline. That handler makes some security-checks and builds then the container: DFHWS-ICRX. If that container is present, then "Identity Propagation" starts. Our webservice is a java-module (ABCDFUN3), that throws an user abend (code: EFGH). If we use "Identity Propagation", then the SOAPFAULT details-section shows the application-handler (DFHPITP) as the cics-program: <SOAP-ENV:Detail> <cics:FaultDetail xmlns:cics="http://www.ibm. com/software/htp/cics/fault"> <cics:Error> The soap fault should contain our program ABCDFUN3 not DFHPITP.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: SOAP fault contains the wrong program * * name after an abend is issued in a * * user program. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** CICS is acting as a web service provider and the context-switch is performed during request processing. When a web request is received, source task is invoked which then attaches target task to handle this request. During the target task processing, the requested user program in turn gets executed. In the user program, EXEC CICS ABEND is issued according to its application logic. This LINK_ABEND exception is then passed back to source task. Because of the exception, a SOAP fault message which contains the ABEND information (ABEND code and failing program name) is created in DFHPISN and then sent back to requester side. But the failing program name which is used to create the SOAP fault message is the name of the application handler instead of the name of the program which abended. Additional keywords: SOAPFAULT apphandler DFHPI0997 msgDFHPI0997 DFHPITP
Problem conclusion
DFHPISN has been changed to retrieve the failing program name and abend code from the most recent abend record when creating a SOAP fault as a result of an abend in the target task.
