SE56591: RDI 9.0.0.1 MANUALLY SETTING A SEP CAN FAIL IF THE FIRST VALUES ENTERED WERE INCORRECT

Rational Developer for i 9.0.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If you try to manually open the dialog to set a Service Entry
  Point (SEP) and type in the name of a *SRVPGM, module and
  procedure incorrectly then try to set the SEP it will fail.
  Correcting the name and trying again may still fail even though
  the values may be correct the second time.
  

Local fix

• Close then re-open the dialog and enter the values correctly or
  browse to the *SRVPGM in RSE and use the context menus to set
  the SEP.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Manually setting a service entry point  *
  *                      can fail if the first values entered    *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When a user creates a service entry point using the SET action
  from the IBM i Service Entry Points view, if they enter the
  correct module and procedure name but wrong service program
  name the first time, setting the service entry point will fail,
  which is an expected behavior. However, even after the user
  corrects the service program name to the right one, setting
  the service entry point continues to fail.
  

Problem conclusion

• This problem is fixed in the RDi 9.0.1 update.
