COBRT017 Record error: probably zero length (Recoverable)

You have probably tried to access a record that has had no value moved into it.

Resolution:

Although this error is recoverable in the sense that it can be trapped, once it has been reported you must execute a STOP RUN statement immediately and then recode your program to ensure that the COBOL record length is not zero.
