exec-name received an invalid MDB prefix/header; ID=eyecatcher, VER=mdb-version, TYPE=MDB-type; no variables created

Error message issued by VNCRXM03, the REXX EXEC exit that creates variables for execs called from alert and message rules. The address of the MDB buffer is passed to the exec in the CPB.

The error occurs when the MDB buffer fails validation of the eyecatchers in the prefix or header sections, identified in the message by eyecatcher.

For the MDB prefix section, ID should equal MDBP, VER should equal 1, and TYPE should = 0 (zero).

For the MDB header, ID should equal MDB, VER should equal 1, and TYPE should equal 1.

This message probably indicates an internal logic error.
