Re: OVRDBF FILE(QSYSPRT) Returning Error

[Michael Ryan <michaelrtr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's the second level text:

Message . . . . :   Override of printer file &1 not allowed.
Cause . . . . . :   One of the following occurred:
    -- The printer file was overridden to file &2.  Overrides to the name of
  the system printer file are not allowed.
    -- The file &2 is not a printer file.  File &2 has the same name as the
  system printer file and is in a library before QSYS in the library list.
Recovery  . . . :   Do one of the following and then try the request again:
    -- Delete the override of file &1 (DLTOVR command).
    -- Change the system library list (CHGSYSLIBL command) so QSYS is before
  all other libraries that contain the file &2.

Does this apply?
