Question & Answer
Question
I have been using an FTP process to copy my CICS bundle directory from development to production. But now when I try to install the BUNDLE resource definitions I get the following messages:
DFHRL0124 E date time applid CEDA The CICS resource
lifecycle manager failed to create resource xxxxxxxxxx
of type http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/cics/bundle/OSGIBUNDLE
for BUNDLE xxxxxxx.
DFHRL0102 E date time applid CEDA The CICS resource
lifecycle manager failed to create the resource
xxxxxxxxxx and returned with reason CALL_BACK_ERROR.
...
DFHPI1007 date time applid CEDA XML to data transformation
failed because of incorrect input (XML_FORMAT_ERROR
Invalid XML data character) for OSGIBUNDLE xxxxxxxxxx.
Why is this problem occurring?
Answer
The DFHPI1007 error message is indicating that the failure is due to the XML (or JSON) not being well-formed. There should be additional information within the CICS trace files.
XML not well-formed problems are typically caused by misconfigured files and since files were being copied from one system to another, this should be easy to repair. One of the files copied over was the cics.xml file. So as a first step,
Verify that the xml file(s) are well-formed. A well-formed XML document conforms to the general rules of XML syntax. Sometimes, you can tell if the file is well-formed just by browsing it.
Try copying the file over once again and see if the problem still occurs.
In the FTP step, make sure the bundle file was copied over to z/OS as a BINARY mode file (not ASCII).
