Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of z/OS Connect z/OS application   *
  *                 API requesters, with feature                 *
  *                 apiRequester-1.0 (OpenAPI 2).                *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The explanation of message BAQT0007E    *
  *                      states the problem only occurs when the *
  *                      response message length is greater than *
  *                      BAQ-RESPONSE-LEN.                       *
  ****************************************************************
  z/OS Connect checked the length of the returned data and issued
  the BAQT0007E message if it was different from the length
  specified in BAQ-RESPONSE-LEN. The BAQT0007E message explanation
  was incorrect.
  

Problem conclusion

• The z/OS Connect documentation for the BAQT0007E message will be
  updated to the following:
  
  The length of the response message does not match the value that
  is specified by BAQ-RESPONSE-LEN. This issue can occur for the
  following reasons:
  - The language that is defined in the build toolkit properties
    file differs from the language that is used by the client
    z/OS®  application.
  - The response data structure is incorrect.
  - The BAQ-RESPONSE-PTR parameter is NULL.
  If the response message is longer than the specified length, the
  extra data is discarded.
