Why do my Translator allocations get exported with fileType="TEXT" and no dataSetDefinition?

Hi,


We are using RTC 6.0.4 with Enterprise Extensions for z/OS.

I have exported our System Definitions via the export ANT task, and now I'm attempting to import them into a Test Project Area (using the exported ANT script). 
The Ant build successfully creates all the Language Definitions, however it fails on my first Translator (the COBOL Compiler) with the error 
[ld:translator] Data set definition () was not found.
    
After some investigations (and comparing to the JKE Sample) I found that the exported ANT script does not have dataSetDefinition for the ld:allocation and instead looks like this:
<ld:allocation disp="KEEP" fileType="TEXT" name="SYSADATA" options="" path="" perm=""/>
    
The export for the JKE Sample works fine. Also, if I manually update the translator with the correct dataSetDefinition, for each allocation then the Translator gets created correctly.

What would cause this to happen with our project system definitions?

Regards,
Sudheer

 I think it's a bug in 6.0.4.  I had to go back to a 6.0.2 client to run the export.

Thank you, finally been able to try 6.0.2 and it worked. I also had to change the runtime to use the workspace JRE
