PH67465: API requester response data is printed incorrectly in the Host API trace.

APAR status

• Closed as unreproducible in next release.

Error description

• When using OpenAPI 3 API requester Host API trace, the response
  data in the Host API trace is not correctly formatted. For
  example, the Host API trace might show the following at the
  start of the response data:
  
  <Date_Timestamp> (webtBodyStreamExit) -- Response Data:
   C2C1D8C8C1D7C9E2  F0F0F0F10000000C  |  .....P..........
   E2E3C1D9E3C4C140  C2C1D8C2C1E2C540  |  ................
  
  but it should look like this:
  <Date_Timestamp> (webtBodyStreamExit) -- Response Data:
   C2C1D8C8C1D7C9E2  F0F0F0F10000000C  |  BAQHAPIS0001....
   E2E3C1D9E3C4C140  C2C1D8C2C1E2C540  |  STARTDA BAQBASE

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of z/OS Connect 3.0 feature        *
  *                 oasRequester-1.0 for OpenAPI 3 API           *
  *                 requesters.                                  *

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: API requester response data is printed  *
  *                      incorrectly in the Host API trace.      *
  ****************************************************************
  Static data was used to format and translate the hexadecimal
  response data into EBCDIC data in the HOST API trace. In the
  interactions between the HOST API and the z/OS Web
  Client Enablement Toolkit, the addressability to the static data
  was lost. This resulted in the data in the HOST API trace was
  not formatted correctly.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• z/OS Connect has been changed to use a different formatting
  mechanism for the OpenAPI 3 Host API trace.
  
  The fix for this APAR is expected to be delivered by the PTF
  for z/OS Connect V3.0.98.0 (PH68103).
