It doesn't matter who compiles the *PGM object, but rather who owns
the object. If the other dev owns the object, it won't run once
deployed. I can change the owner of the deployed object to me, and
then it does run.
AIUI there is a configuration\directives file in which is defined
what will validly qualify as "a CGI program"; though I recall only an
aliasing effect, merely for location\finding objects. I am unaware of
there being any filtering by object owner, such that a located program
could be identified as "Not a CGI program" solely per an /incorrect/ owner.
Thus I would expect most likely, the authority to the object for
either the user assigned for the start of the server job or a
switched-to user in the already-active server job, is more likely to be
the origin for the issue than the ownership of the object; perhaps for
the failing scenario there would be a T-AF entry in the audit log if
*AUTFAIL auditing were in effect?
Note: The default effect for the Change Object Ownership (CHGOBJOWN)
is to Revoke the Current Owner Authority. So perhaps rather than
specifically the ownership change being corrective, the loss of the
previously assigned private authorities to the other developer user
profile might be what was corrective.?
Of the past messages that I recall describing both that /same error/
message-text and referrals made to the configuration file, both on this
forum and on other fora, the discussions were [best I can recall] always
about improper mapping of the name to an actual object; i.e. I do not
recall any of those past discussions for which the name-mapping
specifications include a particular owner as an additional requirement,
beyond the requirement the object must be found. But, the lack of
authority to an object can be identical in effect to the inability to
locate; i.e. a request to /resolve-to/ an object may manifest as the
condition /not found/ if the object is searched for generically via a[n
effective] path such as *LIBL or by generically naming the object to be
searched such as with MYPGM*.
I seemed to recall more past discussions with that error text, but even
eliminating the effective message identifier in the following web
search, the additional results seem unrelated:
