Cross posting this to both IBM-main and the CICS list. We are running CICS 5.6, and CTG 9.2.0.2 on a Windows platform. This setup is used to transfer requests/replies from/to a Windows based browser application with WebSphere Application Server (also on Windows) sitting in the middle. It is working fine, we're seeing the requests come in and the CICS responses flow back to the browser. However, we're heading down the path of setting up passphrases and this is where we are running into issues. When the end user comes in with a passphrase, the request appears like it doesn't even hit the mainframe. The error we're seeing in WebSphere is this:
CTG9631E Error occurred during an interaction with CICS: ECI_ERR_SECURITY_ERROR, error code: -27. We opened a ticket with CTG support and the response we got back was that we're running a back level version of CICS, and their "supporting documentation" said we needed to upgrade to CICS 4.1. Yes we had already told them we're running 5.6. From what I've found, CTG 9202 also supports passphrases. My developer testing this successfully logs directly onto CICS using a phrase on green screen so CICS doesn't look like it's the problem. So my question(s) is/are: Is anybody running a similar setup: CICS5.x, CTG 9.2.x.x on WAS on Windows? If so, are you using passwords or phrases? If you're using phrases, did you have to do anything different in CICS to work with phrases? Any suggestions as to where we could look for clues?
