AOP069E Connection to transform class transform_class failed.
Explanation
Some print data requires transformation from one data format to another, such as from PCL to AFP, from PostScript to AFP or from PDF to AFP. For such data sets, Print Interface sends the print data to a transform process for conversion before writing the data to the JES spool. This error message indicates that communication with the transform process was either never established or failed before the transform completed.
In the message text, transform_class is the name of the transform (such as pcl2afp) concatenated with the class specified in the -c filter option (such as letter_240). For example, pcl2afp_letter_240.
System action
The transform request was not completed.
Operator response
Not applicable.
System programmer response
Make sure that a valid transform class is specified in the -c filter option in the printer definition. The transform class must be defined in the transform configuration file, aopxfd.conf. If you change the configuration file, stop and restart the Infoprint Server Transform Manager daemon to pick up the changes.
Also, make sure that you installed the requested transform and correctly specified the name of the transform daemon in the transform configuration file. The name of the transform is the first part of the class_name (for example, afpxpcl.) If the DLL for the transform daemon (for example, afpxpcl.dll) is not installed, you also receive message EDC5129I on the console.
View the /var/Printsrv/xfd/transform_class.#.stderr file for an indication of the cause of the transform failure.
If the problem persists, contact your IBM® service representative.
User response
Submit the request with a valid -c filter option. If the -c option is valid, notify your administrator.
