Error description

  • The dump showed that the JVM and Liberty have started up
    successfully. 2 bundles get installed. The ENABLE is done
    for the first one.
    
    Then CJSL wakes up and tries to terminate the JVM. The
    only way this should happen is if there was a problem
    starting the JVM.  It is visible that the disable fails
    with an exception from the router class that indicates
    the Libery server failed to stop.
    
    The dump was taken because when control returns to DFHSJL
    and it attempts to terminate the EXEC CICS RETURN command
    is issued with the wrong R13.
    
    This causes completely unexpected behaviour, an exception
    out of DFHAPPG and a DFHSJ0002 message with related dump.

    or other errors due to incorrect setting of R13 when issuing

Problem conclusion

  • DFHSJL has been changed to set R13 correctly before issuing EXEC
    CICS RETURN
