I'm sure that specific problem miraculously "went away" but you've opened another much worse can of worms. Anyone on your system who is either a member of the QPGMR group or has authority to the QPGMR profile can now access any object on your system and pretty much do what they like with it. That is, system security is about zero!

Your original problem was noticed during a save operation. I suggest you read about *SAVSYS special authority. That is likely the correct solution in this case (although it too has potential security issues they are much less than giving out *ALLOBJ).
