• Message number: 811

• Message text: Configuration of logical file name "&1" is not secure.

What causes this issue?

The configuration of the logical file name is not correct and the
application is trying to configure this file name insecurely. Either
the logical file name or the logical file path starts with <(>
<<)>PARAM_X>, and the calling application uses the absolute path in the
validated physical file name.

System Response

File validation failed.

How to fix this error?

Contact the system administrator to request the logical file name or the
logical file path to be configured securely.

Procedure for System Administrators

The application is using an insecure configuration of the logical file
name. Change the configuration of the logical file name or the logical
file path so that it does not start with <(><<)>PARAM_X>.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Example of an insecure configuration:
<(><<)>PARAM1><(><<)>FILENAME>
Example of a secure configuration:
Windows:
C:\WINDOWS\<(><<)>PARAM_1><(><<)>FILENAME>
UNIX systems:
/tmp/<(><<)>PARAM_1><(><<)>FILENAME>
