JCL Error CN(Internal)

Post by capthindsight » Wed Oct 21, 2015 12:39 am

Please don't chastise me as I am a beginner and student learning some JCL. I copied a instructor member and am attempting to submit the job but keep getting JCL error CN (Internal). I don't know what I'm doing wrong and my instructor in unavailable for help. Is there anything in the script that could be causing this error?:

Code: Select all

//KC03F50A  JOB 99999,'CREATE DATASET',         
//            MSGCLASS=H,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),        
//            REGION=4M,NOTIFY=KC03F50          
//*                                             
//STEP1    EXEC PGM=IEFBR14                     
//SYSOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                          
//SYSOUD   DD SYSOUT=*                          
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                          
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*                          
//FILE01   DD DSN=KC03F50.C2461.NEW.DATA,       
//            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),          
//            UNIT=SYSDA,                       
//            SPACE=(CYL,(2,2),RLSE),           
//            DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=143,BLKSIZE=0)
// 
I realize this may be the incorrect way to post codes in the forum as well, but I hope it's acceptable. Again, a beginner in both mainframe coding and using this forum. Any constructive criticism will be noted and used henceforth. Thanks! [/code]

If you can locate your output in the spool, you will see the "converted" JCL that the system is using (there's nothing to convert in yours, it will be the same) with line-numbers associated. Then you may be able to tell what the problem is, or post that JCL and the message here.

Figured out the error was being returned because I was trying to rerun the same script (where the data set was already allocated). Also, I needed to run the command PREFIX KC03F50* in the held output panel to see the jobs I had submitted. Thanks for your speedy answer nonetheless William Collins! I have no doubt I will revisit this forum as I work through this course.
