PH12095: SCHEDULED APPLICATION PROCESS REMAINS IN EXECUTING STATUS WHEN REQUESTED BY USER THAT LOSES EXECUTE PERMISSION

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Scheduled application process by â ˜user1â ™ does not run at the
  scheduled time because the â ˜user1â ™ had the permission
  ⠜Execute on Environments⠝ removed (expected)
  but then the application process remains in "Executing" status
  (even after the â ˜user1â ™ gains back the â œExecute on
  Environments⠝ permission).
  
  Steps to reproduce or if has been reproduced on VM image, link
  to image
  I have confirmed this issue on UCD 6.2.7.2 and on the newest UCD
  7.0.2.2 as well.
  Steps:
  -	Have a â ˜user1â ™ schedule an application process to run on
  an environment â ˜Env1â ™
  -	Remove ⠜Execute on Environments⠝ permission for the
  â ˜user1â ™.
  -	At the scheduled time of the application process the process
  does not run. The process request page shows â œError starting
  workflow: User doesn't have execute permission to environment
  Env1 See the server log for the full error trace⠝
  -	The main Dashboard page does not list this process under
  current activities.
  -	The application process does not seem to be running, but its
  status under Application history page shows as 'Executing'.
  The process status remains in 'Executing' and the process
  request execution log still shows the error also after the user
  is given back the execute permission for the scheduled
  environment â ˜Env1â ™.
