Carol,
To expand a little on my previous reply (start the QSERVER subsystem):

ERROR DESCRIPTION:
Windows 95 Client Access Data Transfer will fail when
the job is run in any subsystem other then QSERVER.
The user is able to retrieve a list of libraries
but queries and table or field catalog requests fail.
The PC receives the error:
MSGCWBDB0053 - Communication error received
during processing (System).
MSGCWBDB0048 - Server returned general error
AS/400 joblog would show (depending on version and PTF):
MSGPWS0010 or MSGPWS0008
MSGMCH3601 Pointer not set to location referenced
MSGCPF9999 Function Check. MCH3601 unmonitored by QZDASQL
at statement *N and instruction X'078B'
MSGPWS0005 Error occured in OS/400 Database Server Code.
Comm Trace shows that AS/400 is sending FMH -7 when a
Stream Fetch Request is received by the Database Server.
The Database server has two entry points for SNA
attached devices: An ICF file based program allocated
when the attach occurs on a session bound to mode
description QPCSUPP (or other); The QZDAINIT job
allocated when the session is bound to mode description
QSERVER. The ICF file interface does not support
the Database Server Stream Fetch operation used
by Data transfer. Any such job will fail.
This error is usually seen on PCs connected via
Mircosoft NT SNA server or Novell SAA. By default,
both connection types use QPCSUPP mode and not QSERVER.
LOCAL FIX:
If you are NOT running over SAA or SNA gateway and are still
receiving similar error, a QSERVER mode description needs to
be created on the AS/400. A QSERVER modd may be created using
this command:
CRTMODD MODD(QSERVER) MAXSSN(64) MAXCNV(64) INDTACPR(*LZ10)
OUTDTACPR(*LZ10) TEXT('QSERVER MODD FOR CA/400')
When running under SAA or SNA gateway a QSERVER modd needs
to be created on the gateway as well.
Novell SAA 2.x users require a fix from Novell SAA
support.
For a SNA server before you can configure a mode you may need
to assign a Local APPC LU to a server and then associate the
QSERVER mode for both local and remote APPC LU.
Consult appropriate documentation to create a QSERVER modd
on the server/gateway.
PROBLEM SUMMARY:
Under Windows 95 Client Access Data Transfer will fail when
the job is running under QCMN subsystem and/or using QPCSUPP
mode description. An ICF file interface is used to process
such jobs. But under ICF file interface Stream Fetch requests
are not supported. So, any such data transfer job would
fail.
When PC is connected via SAA or SNA server data transfer
job uses QPCSUPP mode and runs under QCMN. For SAA 2.0
PC would generate this error: "CWBDB0053-Communication error
received during processing (System)."
AS/400 joblog would show:
MCH3601 Pointer not set to location referenced
CPF9999 Function Check. MCH3601 unmonitored by QZDASQL at s
statement *N and instruction X'078B'
Comm Trace would show that AS/400 is sending FMH -7 when a
Stream Fetch Request is received by the SQL Server.
Similar error messages may also be encountered when running
through a MS SNA Server.
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
In order to run Data Transfer, the QSERVER mode description
must be defined in the PC "router", the AS/400, and any
APPN node on the network that may route the BIND.
If the mode description QSERVER does not exist on
the AS/400, one may be created using this command:
CRTMODD MODD(QSERVER) MAXSSN(64) MAXCNV(64) INDTACPR(*LZ10)
OUTDTACPR(*LZ10) TEXT('QSERVER MODD FOR CA/400')
When running under a Netware for SAA or Microsoft SNA gateway a
QSERVER mode description needs to be created on the gateway as
well.
Netware for SAA requires a fix to properly handle the
QSERVER mode. Contact Novell SAA support, apar JR09091
for further details.
The Novell SAA BBS number are: 919-254-6231 and 919-254-6306.
The Web page is www.networking.ibm.com/nsa/nsamain.htm.
The individual fixes are:
D347-20.ZIP ; Fixes SAA 2.0 *** MUST HAVE SAA030 APPLIED ***
D347-21.ZIP ; Fixes SAA 2.1 ( AS/400 Edition )
D347-22.ZIP ; Fixes SAA 2.2
The fixpacks are/will be:
SAA20032 2.0
SAA21010 2.1
SAA22010 2.2
Please note that you MUST be running Novell SAA 2.0 or later.
Microsoft SNA Server:
See the SNA Server Aministration Guide, "Configuring
Modes for LU-LU Pairs", for instructions on how to
configure new mode descriptions.
You may need to assign a Local APPC LU to a server and then
associate the QSERVER mode for both local and remote APPC LU.
For detailed information on how to create QSERVER mode
descriptions on the servers, consult the appropriate server
documentation.
