The start and stop happen because, another task is started, usually

To see it, you can issue (on the console or via SDSF/EJES):

After that, you will be unsupported, convert to Phoenix's JES3 or

CICS does not require a CICS segment, so if you do not block the user at
the APPL, the default user CICS segment inherented to the user. Still don't
understand why the helpdesk users password authentication fails if it works

I think we're asking the wrong question. These folk just make an ordinary fat
fingered typo now and then. If that happens on TSO, the user is hung up but the
system runs along fine. Apparently in CICS, the whole shebang goes into a wait.
I've seen this for other non-CICS products.

Oh man! Talk about user-hostile programming. How could anyone ship a
customer-facing program that detects an error and then just quits with (a.)

error message. Even if you can't open your usual log or listing file you can

Nice catch, Joe.
Charles,
I would agree about a customer-facing process not generating messages upon
termination. However, the FTP daemon isn't "quite" that bad. Just for
curiosity, I tried to start a second FTPD on my sandbox. It did what it was
supposed to do, started the FTPD1 daemon and
This is not a 'RACF problem'. The problem lies with product that manages logins

this problem. The task gets a wait from RACF, but that task is running in the
mainline of the top guy. The proper way to handle this is
Do you mean that TCAS issued a WTOR? Because that's the only way I can imagine

It was a long time ago, but yes, TCAS or some inbred cousin issued the WTOR and
whole thing waited. Much more recently TPX would do the same thing. Improper
coding is not the purview of user software.

Long ago and far away, we had a similar problem. The VTAM applid and the CICS
