The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft SNA Server, versions 2.0, 2.1, 2.11, 2.11 SP1, 2.11 SP2, 3.0, 3.0 SP1, 3.0 SP2, 3.0 SP3, 4.0, 4.0 SP1
SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to connect to an AS/400 through the SNA Server's Win5250
applet, the following error message may appear after the user name and
password are entered in the session level sign-on screen:
Configuration Problem
Allocation Error. Security Not Valid. RC 0003 080F6051.
CAUSE
This error condition occurs when the AS/400 device security has been set
incorrectly.
NOTE: The following similar error message appears when the incorrect user
name and password are entered at the session level sign-on screen, but
should not be confused with the aforementioned error condition:
The userid or password is not valid. Try again or contact your system
administrator. Primary return code: 0003 Secondary return code: 080F6051
WORKAROUND
To correctly sign on, the Limit Device Access value on the AS/400 needs to
be set to "0=Explicit device access not needed." In the failing condition,
this value will be set to "1= Explicit device access needed."
To check this value, do the following:
- At the AS/400 Main menu, type WRKSYSVAL and then press ENTER.
("WRKSYSVAL" means Work with System Values.)
- Scroll down the list to QLMTSECOFR and place a 5 on the adjacent line
and then press ENTER.
- At the Display System Value screen, change the Limit Device Access value
to 0.
