Relocatable value or unresolved symbol found when absolute value required

Explanation

One of the following situations has occurred:
  • A relocatable or complex relocatable expression is used where an absolute expression is required.
  • A DSECT-based expression is used as an operand for an address constant where an expression that resolves into a storage address is required.
  • The expression is not resolvable due to a dependency on another symbol that is not yet resolved.

System action

A machine instruction assembles as zero. In a DC, DS, or DXD statement, the operand in error and the following operands are ignored.

Programmer response

Supply an absolute expression or term, or for an address constant supply a valid storage address expression, or remove dependency on unresolved symbol.
