RE: More detail on authority failure

<snip>
The vendor says to grant *PUBLIC *ALL to their *ALLOBJ profile and just
forget about it. I'm uncomfortable with that.

Did you modify the program and change the ownership or some such thing?
Did you restore it wrong which destroyed the ownership? Like forget to
change ALWOBJDIF(*ALL)?
If you do a DSPPGM does it show
User profile . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : *USER
or
User profile . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : *OWNER
If *OWNER then just change the owner to their *ALLOBJ profile.
If *USER then tell them to fix the program

Another possibility was that this was working "if" you see
Use adopted authority . . . . . . . . . . . . : *YES
but someone changed some program higher up the call stack, removed the
"*YES" on one of those programs and it is no longer passing that on down.

Again, if you see
User profile: *USER
and you see
Use adopted authority: *NO
then tell the vendor to fix it.
