CLI1173 Parameter-descriptor-pointer or -length is invalid
Explanation:
The combination of the DBCAREA Parameter-descriptor-pointer, Parameter-descriptor-length, and Variable-length-request were invalid. If Variable-length-request is 'N', then if Parameter-descriptor-length is not zero, then Parameter-descriptor-pointer must not be zero (or PL/I null, which is x'FF0000000').
Remedy:
If Parameter-descriptors are intended, provide the missing Parameter-descriptor-pointer.
