Re: Compiler CPF5D04 after 7.4 to 7.6 upgrade

Justin,

Why would the RPG compiler be looking for this?  Did you or someone add that *SRVPGM to some "binding directory" that is commonly used by at least those RPGLE programs that are now showing this error?

That QTOQRAPI *SRVPGM contains these procedures:

rapi_session      
rapi_sender       
rapi_reserve      
rapi_release      
rapi_getfd        
rapi_dispatch     
rapi_version      
rapi_fmt_flowspec 
rapi_fmt_tspec    
rapi_fmt_adspec   
rapi_fmt_filtspec 

You could use FNDSTRPDM to search your QRPGLESRC source members for any occurrances of any of those procedure names, to find out who may be trying to use this *SRVPGM.

As Charles stated, the *PUBLIC authority for that *SRVPGM as shipped by IBM is set to *EXCLUDE.   It is also possible that someone changed that to e.g. *PUBLIC *USE on IBM i 7.4, and when you upgraded, you "lost" that change.

Rather than just changing the *PUBLIC authority for that *SRVPGM, I would try to figure out why it is being accessed (for what purpose).

Hope that helps,

Mark S. Waterbury

After upgrading IBM i from 7.4 to 7.6, I'm getting about 15-20 of these
compiler messages when compiling RPG.  They only appear on a successful
compile.  They always point to something in QSYS. Is there a way to get rid
of them?

Sample:
CPF5D04 Not authorized to service program QTOQRAPI in library QSYS.

I see these messages on RDi 9.9, 9.8, and 9.6.

Thanks
