It appears to me that COBOL 6.2 or 6.3 fails a BASIS statement if there is
any COPYLOC in effect and SYSLIB is a PDS, but not if SYSLIB is a PDSE.
The error is IGYLI0053-U A library read error occurred during "BASIS"
processing. No member was found or there was a bad block.
//S1 EXEC PGM=IGYCRCTL,PARM='COPYLOC(MYUNIX,PATH("valid.unix.path")'
//SYSLIB DD DSN=PDS(E) containing GCOPYA,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD *
BASIS GCOPYA
/*
// remaining COBOL compile JCL
Above works if SYSLIB is a PDSE but fails if it is a PDS. Works either way
if you remove the COPYLOC. COPY seems to work okay; only BASIS seems to
fail.
Just tried a COPYLOC with a DSN rather than a PATH and it still fails.
Would be curious what others think or if anyone wanted to try to duplicate.
This is in Dallas so no ability to open a PMR.
