U4091 Reason 00000006

Question

What does an abend U4091 reason 00000006 mean?

IBM Docs have this to say:

X'06' (6) A request to resume the application was not accepted. The Language Environment condition manager does not accept resumption requests with conditions, such as abends.

I do not know what that means - what is a resumption request?

I get this at shutdown of my program, everything seems to have shutdown successfully. Nothing is failing, except this abend. I assume it is some part of LE that is complaining. The name of the active module in the abend is CELQLIB.

The job shows this:-

and wrote an MVS dump, but not a CEEDUMP.

Running the dump though IPCS with VERBX LEDATA 'CEEDUMP' shows the traceback to be:-

None of which is my code, so perhaps it is not my problem to solve.

Answer 1

It is quite usual that this abend is caused by a small region for the user executing the program. Try to increase the region assigned to the user for the omvs segment.

Also check your pointers as the modules involved are sometimes involved in bad pointers.
