That is correct, you can change the internal logic in a service program, recreate the service program, and not recompile programs that use the service program.
Did you modify the binder source?
Was a modification made to any existing exported procedures? (I'm guessing 'no' based on your interface comment.)
Was another change made to the source that you weren't aware of?
If you're getting errors, there should be something in the job log, otherwise how are you getting the error? More detailed information about the error would help.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I though that if you didn't change any interface parameters, you could change a service program and not have to recompile all the programs that use it.
That doesn't appear to be the case, as I'm getting call errors on programs that use it.
no messages in the job log either.
