Hi
This is Praveen, fresher to this forum..
i need one help..
i got error while working in CICS screen..Abend code 1074

Could you please any of you let me know the reason for the abend code?

Can you provide a little more information? It does not look like a CICS error (I could be wrong).

Is your CICS program trying to access any databases? What was the program trying to do when you got the error or what was the new code that you added?

Hi Christy,

Thanks for responding..

I just got the error while opening the CICS screen....
this CICS screen is referencing DB2 database
the program is trying 2 fetch the data from the database based the DB2 query in the code...

let me know if this info is enough..

I found this. I suspect that your culprit is DB2 not CICS.
Make sure that if you have a nullable field in your DB2 call that you have a null indicator in the call as well.

I.e. FIELD_1 : WS-NULL-IND-1

If the null indicator value is -1 then the value of FIELD_1 is null.
You need a unique WS null indicator for each nullable field used in the DB2 call.


SQL1074N The address of the password parameter is not valid. Explanation: The application program used an address that is not valid for this parameter. Either the address points to an unallocated buffer or the character string in the buffer does not have a null terminator. The command cannot be processed. User Response: Ensure that a valid address is used in the application program and the input string is null terminated.

thanks
Will let you once i try
