IEW2454W SYMBOL symbol UNRESOLVED.

Troubleshooting


Problem

In some cases the Binder message IEW2454W will be issued when the customer Applies/Accepts APAR/PTFs

Symptom

IEW2454W SYMBOL symbol UNRESOLVED. NO AUTOCALL (NCAL) SPECIFIED. [NAME SPACE = name-space]
Explanation: The symbol shown was still unresolved following primary input processing and automatic library call processing was suppressed.

Name space indicates the type of external symbol being referenced, and can have one of these values:
1. normal external names
2. pseudo register names
3. parts (usually external data items such as data items in C writable static)
Name space will not be printed if its value is 1.
Note: A label or variable in one name space cannot be used to resolve a reference in another.
System action: Processing continues.
User response: If 'symbol' must be resolved, provide an appropriate INCLUDE control statement or remove the NCAL option.
Source: Binder

Cause

Message issued by module prior to all external references being resolved.

Resolving The Problem

There is no cause for alarm as message IEW2454W is issued normally once before the binder resolves the external references.
