Hi all,

While writing a vsam file in CICS, I am getting invreq error code.
and I chcked the resp and resp2, I got EIBRESP OF 16 AND EIBRESP2 OF 20.

Please let me know why I am getting this error?

recenlty our admin added security to allow only 2 userids to add a record for this file, but my id not included in security. Does this is causing this problem

Thanks
Suma

Possibly, but I don't know. you need to check out the file entry spec in the fct:

20 Add operations are not allowed according to the file entry specification in the FCT.

A WRITE is considered an ADD, a REWRITE is considered an UPDATE. See your VSAM and CICS manuals.

Hi,

I found the solution,
previously the add status in FCT entry was Nonaddable....
Addstatus( nonAddable )

Now i changed the addstatus to Addable, and I am not getting any error code

thanks for help
