DSNA205E DSNACA00 TCB=address CANNOT USE 'TRANSLATE', THERE WAS NO CONNECTION TO DB2 OR NOTHING TO TRANSLATE

Explanation

A TRANSLATE request was received but no data was available for translation. You must have valid Db2 call attachment facility control structures before you can make a TRANSLATE request. Control structures are built when you issue explicit or implicit connection requests. This is a user error. The message is accompanied by return code (R15) 200 and code (R0) 00C10205.

System action

No TRANSLATE is performed. The Db2 call attachment facility is ready for more input.

System programmer response

Refer the problem to the programmer using the Db2 call attachment facility.

Programmer response

Correct the logic in your application. Do not issue TRANSLATE unless a Db2 connection has been attempted.
