APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The WASPostUpgrade log show:
  MIGR0340W: Application App1.ear did not deploy.
  -
  The application deploy trace file (App1.ear.trace) shows:
  ADMA0010E: Validation error in task Selecting virtual hosts for
  Web modules. A virtual host is not specified for web module
  native.war with URI native.war,WEB-INF/web.xml."" follows:
   com.ibm.ws.scripting.ScriptingException: WASX7109E:
  Insufficient data for install task "MapWebModToVH"
   -
  This problem is being seen because the web module has a web.xml
  file which is basically empty it is missing the *.xmi files.
  

Local fix

• As a workaround edit the jython script and add the
  usedefaultbindings parameter to the "install" line as follows:
   AdminApp.install(earFile,'[-blaname
  "WebSphere:blaname=App1,blaedition=BASE" -nodeployejb -appname
  "App1" -usedefaultbindings -createMBeansForResources
  -noreloadEnabled -custom enhancedEarDisableValidation=true
  -server searver1 -node Node01]')
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *

  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If a module in the applicaiton is not   *
  *                      mapped to a virtual host,               *
  *                      WASPostUpgrade will fail to install     *
  *                      the application.                        *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  A module in the application was not mapped to a virtual host,
  therefore the app install script did not have a -MapModuleToVH
  option provided which caused the app to not be deployed.
  

Problem conclusion

• WASPostUpgrade will now add the -usedefaultbindings option to
  all the app install scripts. This option is used for any
  modules which do not have a virtual host mapping.
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 9.0.5.0 and 8.5.5.16.  Please refer to the Recommended
