APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
When a CGI request has timed out, IHS will terminate the CGI using SIGTERM, wait, then send SIGKILL. It is an abnormal end for the CGI. When this happens, an abendEC6 RC 0000FF09 happens. But it can be hard to correlate the abend from the MVS system log to the messages in the IHS error log. We will extend the timeout message already printed to include the CGI process ID, so it can be correlated with the system log entry. This way the customer can be certain it is a CGI being terminated and not HTTPD itself.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of CGI with IHS on z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: CGI timeout improvement * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply this fix if using IHS on z/OS with * * CGI * **************************************************************** On z/OS, append the CGI PID to the AH01220 message that indicates the CGI has timed out, and add an explicit warning that the process will be killed.
Problem conclusion
The CGI process ID will be added to messages in the IHS error log to aid in correlation with messages in the system log. This fix is targeted for IBM HTTP Server fix packs: - 8.5.5.18 - 9.0.5.5 For more information, see 'Recommended Updates for WebSphere Application Server': https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/715553
